Jackson gets a long-awaited showcase series, which uses Marvel characters to create a modern-day espionage/terrorism thriller. Calling to mind The Thing, the show uses the shapeshifting abilities of the Skrulls, along with their refugee status, to combine fantastical elements with potential modern-day social commentary.

If you're familiar with Pete's standup comedy or Judd Apatow film The King of Staten Island, the storylines and themes of Bupkis will be a continuing exploration of similar material. But what Pete hasn't had before is Joe Pesci, who, at 80, is still intimidating, funny, charming, vulnerable - he's still a total movie star, in short.

This is a franchise where the first film was financially successful but was not well received by critics or audiences and Liam and his team somehow managed to make 2 excellent sequels well received by critics and audiences and now Liam is making a fourth film. If you have any interest in filmmaking, movies with Iko Uwais, Frank Grillo movies, sci-fi movies, special effects, or behind the scenes, I strongly encourage you to listen to this episode.<br /><br />Liam also has his own podcast, Action For Everyone.<br /><br />Trying to figure out, "What should I stream tonight?"

This might be the best funny TV show on Amazon Prime I've seen, certainly in 2023. The premise is so unique and insane, it seems like it must be faked or manipulated in some way. A juror agrees to participate in a documentary about jury duty, but unbeknowst to him all his fellow jurors are actors. Requiring a Stanley Kubrick / Andy Kaufman / NASA moon landing level of coordination behind the scenes, this is basically like if your life was a sitcom and you didn't know it. Featuring James Marsden as himself (it makes sense when you watch) - this is a real gem and I'm excited to highlight it for you.

Beef is incredibly engaging, really taps into some uncomfortable but I would argue universal truths about life, and is anchored by career performances from Ali Wong, Steven Yeun, and a murderer's row of stellar character actors in supporting roles. It is very hard to stop watching this show once you start. A perfect example of the best we can get from streaming, this is a peak TV positive outcome, a universally relatable show that is very binge-able.

Beef is incredibly engaging, really taps into some uncomfortable but I would argue universal truths about life, and is anchored by career performances from Ali Wong, Steven Yeun, and a murderer's row of stellar character actors in supporting roles. It is very hard to stop watching this show once you start. A perfect example of the best we can get from streaming, this is a peak TV positive outcome, a universally relatable show that is very binge-able. Big win for Netflix. <br /><br />Come back to Watch This Tonight as your podcast for the best TV recommendations.

Films discussed include Underwater, the Kirsten Stewart film (that I'll stand on the table for all day as a legitimately good movie), Captive State (Andor before Andor, a movie very few people saw but that has really inventive ideas), and In The Shadow of The Moon (a Netflix film that unfortunately disappeared into the crowd, by the great Jim Mickle, that is extremely original).

Deservedly so, because this is a tight, attention-grabbing, compelling character study of one woman's exhilarating journey to the dark side (that for her, is actually not dark). In some ways, it's own version of Breaking Bad, but in a distinctive style and narrative.

The first episode is a great evocation of the premise, with a creepy original story starring Tim Blake Nelson who buys the world's creepiest storage unit. The concern with a show like this is that it can be dashed off, B-level material from A-level creatives, but that's not the case here. Everyone is bringing their A game, the first episode is excellent, and this looks like a great way for excellent directors (Guillermo Navarro, Vincenzo Natali, Jennifer Kent) to get to do mini-movies with a beginning, middle and end on each episode.

What to a younger viewer might seem frivolous or small in stakes or plotless, to an older viewer feels one thousand percent true to life. The movie is funny no matter what age you watch it, but even more so if you are closer to the ages of the lead characters. This is all not to mention an insanely stacked supporting cast, including Megan Fox, Chris O'Dowd, Melissa McCarthy, Jason Segel, Lena Dunham, Albert Brooks, Jon Lithgow and more, and how many of them catapulted to stardom after this film, or haven't done something like this since.
