Over the last month, we’ve powered through some great shows. Here are my Top 5!
Skeleton Crew
"Star Wars: Skeleton Crew" is a Disney+ series that follows four children who make a mysterious discovery on their home planet, leading them to become lost in a strange and dangerous galaxy. Think Goonies in space. It was thoroughly enjoyable and, dare I say, the best series they’ve created yet.
The Day of the Jackal
"The Day of the Jackal" is a British spy thriller television series based on Frederick Forsyth's novel. It stars Eddie Redmayne as the elusive assassin who carries out high-profile hits for substantial fees. The series delves into a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase across Europe. The music in this series is fantastic. I found myself adding many of the songs to my “favorites” playlist. I always say the sign of a good show is when you find yourself rooting for the villian.
Silo Season Two
In the second season of Apple TV+'s "Silo," the post-apocalyptic thriller continues to explore the mysteries of a subterranean community. The season finale, titled "Into the Fire," delivers intense action and major plot twists. I’m considering reading the books!
Only Murders in the Building Season Four & Five
I’m the first to admit that I’ve never been a fan of Martin Short, but after watching this last season, his acting skills outside of comedy are terrific. The relationships between Short, Steve Martin, and Selena Gomez are adorable and the show is funny and sweet. Highly recommend!
What We Do in the Shadows Season Six
The sixth and final season of "What We Do in the Shadows" offers a muted yet enjoyable farewell to the beloved Staten Island vampires. While introducing new characters and storylines, the season maintains the chemistry among the main cast. I’m sad to see this show end, because it’s laugh-out-loud funny and Matt Berry is a national treasure.
