We Were Liars, YA story packs a punch

We Were Liars was a slow burn for me. The first episode was mindnumbingly ordinary. But this coming of age story based on a novel by E. Lockhart grows more and more complex, mysterious, and fascinating with each episode as it leads you carefully to a wow of an ending full of surprises.

Baby Fever review: two seasons of this Danish comedy/drama

Baby Fever (Skruk) is a serious comedy about a woman doctor in a fertility clinic. It's a 30 minute show with 2 seasons now on Netflix. The comedy is light and the drama is ongoing because the doctor is a mess in her personal life. She's a great doctor, but whew, does she screw things up.

Simone and Nana share everything

Nana (Josephine Park) works with a colorful cast of characters in the fertility clinic. Her best friend Simone (Olivia Joof Lewerissa) is the receptionist. Her boss Helle [...]

Using a tie-in to the previous program was both a blessing and a curse. There's no way to compare what Tatiana Maslany did with [...]
