YOU

Netflix Series

Netflix

We've been a fan of YOU since the beginning and Season 4 drops this month for the first half of the season and the remainder will continue on Mar 9th! We continue to follow along with Joe (Penn Badgley) as he starts a new life as he tries to find love while also living the life that he feels he needs. After Season 3, we saw how he finally found a way to leave Love (Victoria Pedretti) and other portions of his life.

If you have yet to watch the previous seasons, you definitely need to binge these episodes. For those who are caught up, we won't spoil what takes place this season, but we meet an entirely new cast of characters and a few of Joe's ghosts! But true to Joe's ability to adapt in any environment, we see how he gets into a number of issues and finds ways to get out of it.

MAYOR OF KINGSTOWN

Paramount Original

Paramount+

Not everyone who runs a town and has the ability to connect others in an official capacity. Mike McClusky (Jeremy Renner) was formerly incarcerated and since being out, has worked in his brother's business which helps those in the community to get things done when the proper channels aren't available to him. For those that have yet to see the 1st season or need to catch up, you'll see how Mike works whether it's interacting with Kingstown's gang groups, the police and more.

Mike is in constant fixer mode and in coming off of last season, there continues to be unrest as the city tries to heal itself and put order back on the table while also making peace with the gangs as well as those that are still in jail.

Although Mike always seems like he's moments ahead of everythign falling apart and on the cusp of deals falling through, he always finds a way to make things come together to fight another day. The Mayor of Kingstown is yet another Taylor Sheridan (1883, 1923, Sicario) series that much like Yellowstone's universe as well as Tulsa King, looks at the intersectionality of communities, the players who run things and the need to see who is on the verge of trying to become the one that grabs the power to create a new kind of order.

STOLEN HEARTS

We love a good true crime story, it takes on another level when someone whose job it is to investigate crimes finds themselves in the midst of a scandal. In Stolen Hearts, we meet a police officer who falls in love with a man who treats her like royalty. It's only after she starts a family with him and meets his friends and enjoys his lavish lifestyle, where she learns that he's arrested for a robbery. In this podcast we hear how she learns about what he lied about, his real family and the implications of how this boyfriend has affected her job and has left her in a cloud of suspicion.
