Looking forward to a big Little Lies fix, the new HBO limited series with Kidman actors, Undoing, and David E. KellyThe psychological thriller did not disappoint me.

The illusion of a perfect life for a couple flares up when the mother of one of Henry’s school friends appears to have been murdered. This is a show where you know, just as good.
