Television extraordinaire Sam Sinnott's in studio to talk Evil Genius (2018), the new Netflix docu-series that delves into the true story of America's most diabolical bank heist, and apparently, it's Wild Wild Country level good. Big call? You be the judge.
Maria brings us Manifesto (2015) this morning, where Cate Blanchett performs a series of striking monologues. An Auckland Art Gallery special or now, an at home, movie on the couch vibe? You decide.
Ryan Murphy (American Horror Story, American Crime Story, Feud) is a busy man. His latest series,Pose, a musical drama set in the New York City of 1987, highlighting the untold interplay between the vogue/ball scene, Trump-era yo-pros and the Western AIDS epidemic.

He reckons if you are a fan of American Horror Story then you should continue to do so.
