Nicole Kidman and Jamie Lee Curtis elevate new crime drama Scarpetta, which is streaming now It's been a long journey to get it to the screen – but was it worth the wait?

Was going to give #Scarpetta two stars, but then Nicole Kidman told Jamie Lee Curtis "You're a vain, shallow narcissist who's never seen a cock she didn't like!" and I obviously had to give it three. My review for DS

One Piece season 2 review: "It's hard to imagine a better version of One Piece in live action" Our spoiler-free review of the live-action anime adaptation One Piece: Into the Grand Line on Netflix

β€œIt's hard to imagine a better version of One Piece in live action"

My @gamesradarplus.bsky.social review of #OnePiece season 2, stronger and more confident than the first in every aspect. This is the live-action adaptation that longtime fans deserve. Obsessed.

Finally got around to starting #KingOfDrag. I love this beautiful, charming and adorably messy show. Murray Hill is a constant delight, the drag kings are GIVING and the whole vibe is just chefs kiss. SO happy we’re getting a second season later this year πŸ™πŸ»πŸ‘‘

Imagine being a homophobic twat when you could just help create more beautiful, life-changing stories like In A Heartbeat (a crowdfunded short that’s ten times better than anything Pixar has released in years)

Why Scrubs revival's relationship development is such an unexpected yet inspired move A JD–Elliot divorce wasn’t on our Scrubs reboot bingo card, but despite initial doubts, it’s proving to be a genius move for the show.

I really enjoy how Elliot and JD navigate life after marriage in the new #Scrubs series. It shows you can still be family even if you’re not together. This is the kind of smart emotional storytelling that made Scrubs a hit in the first place

The Beauty ending explained: What happens to Cooper Madsen? Ryan Murphy's latest show ends on a wild note.

#TheBeauty ends with a truly insane episode that also leans more heavily into The Substance parallels than ever. Read my breakdown for Radio Times

Vladimir review: Get obsessed with Rachel Weisz's story of obsession Rachel Weisz and Leo Woodall star in Netflix's erotic literary drama that's just as smart as it is spicy

Rachel Weisz has never been hotter or more magnetic than she is in #Vladimir, and no, I do not make that claim lightly. Loved seeing her let loose with cutting dialogue and saucy shenanigans. This show is a lot of fun. Read more in my review @techadvisor.com

Vladimir, Taxi Zum Klo and Ryan Philippe's butt Just peachy.

Taxi Zum Klo is one of the filthiest films ever, just as daring now as it was in 1980. Boners, golden showers and an anal exam proved controversial upon the film’s release, even if that’s just a normal Tuesday for many watching at home. More at Cruising CinemaπŸ‘‡πŸ»

How often does a show peak four seasons in these days? Let alone a Netflix original? But that’s exactly what #Bridgerton has done with this new season. It just goes to show what can happen when you let a series breathe instead of cancelling 1 or 2 years in
