We all binged the big hits like The White Lotus, The Bear and Severance. But here are a few more great shows you might have missed completely.
) is not everyone’s idea of a compelling romantic lead – hell, he may not be anyone’s – but there’s a genuine and surprising chemistry between him and the always-bewitching Isla Fisher in this werewolf rom-com set in Adelaide .
From writer-director Abe Forsythe , the show is so much better in practice than on paper. Gad plays a single dad struggling to deal with the death of his wife; Fisher brings all her considerable manic pixie energy to the role of a woman trying to keep her dark secret under wraps: come the full moon, she eats people. It’s an uneasy mix of laughs, horror and genuine emotional depth and, amazingly, it works.
But it works beyond that because it offers something genuine underneath; five women making their way through life, nailing it, stuffing it up, and unflinchingly having each other’s back. When I’m not sharing their murderous thoughts, I want to be swimming with the Garvey sisters at their Dublin waterhole; eating at their hectic, heart-filled table; and joining them for just a little bit of the very lot of wine they seem to go through.
