Somebody Feed Phil (Netflix)
“My husband and I miss Anthony Bourdain to a huge degree. Phil Rosenthal [above] is his opposite in temperament, but he has a very similar curiosity and humility. Phil is infectiously joyful.”
Welcome to Chippendales (Hulu)
“It’s an angle on the American dream story that doesn’t get told a lot, where it goes horribly awry with greed and excess. Annaleigh Ashford just blew me away. And it’s a great period piece too.”
Paul T. Goldman (Peacock)
“It’s kind of a documentary, kind of a reality show, and a deeply weird character study [about Goldman]. I like when shows play with form in a way that accentuates the story. I’m hooked.”
The Bear (Hulu)
“Their restaurant, the Original Beef, is literally and metaphorically a pressure cooker. The show has great actors I admire [including Jeremy Allen White, above]. I love the ensemble work of all the people in the background doing incredibly detailed work.”
Love Is Blind (Netflix)
“I am no longer ashamed to say I love this show [hosted by Nick and Vanessa Lachey, above]. Based on voice alone, not physical chemistry, participants fall in love or don’t. These seem to be genuine and vulnerable experiences.”
The Last of Us (HBO Max)
“Somehow, while the world is open and expansive and they are making this great journey, it feels small and impossible at the same time. It reminds me of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. Great performances [Pedro Pascal, above, stars], well done and beautifully shot.”
