The Residence (Netflix)
At first glance, I didn't think a murder mystery in the White House was going
to be up my alley but I'm glad I gave it a chance. It's funny, has some
wonderful characters, twists and turns, and fantastic writing. When it ended,
I couldn't help but wonder how people managed to weave it all together.
The Continental: From the World of John Wick (Peacock)
I wasn't sure how interested I'd be in a World of John Wick prequel
series but setting it in 70s NYC gave it not so grimy grind-house feel. It's
not as bombastic or graceful as its parent but still has plenty of action.
There are a couple of lulls in the story and while I was never bored with it,
it probably could have benefited from tightening up the B stories. And speaking of John Wick...
