Alex and Mike agree to disagree on the television series remake of David Michôd's Animal Kingdom. Fast paced gritty crime drama or a Fast an' the Furious fail?
Alex steps in to the ever-so-slightly Wayback Machine to feature one of New Zealand's most successful comedy exports,Flight of the Conchords. How does the humour stand up at the ten year mark? And how on earth do we still remember the words to all the bloody tunes?
Alex and Mike are no strangers to the work of Alan Ball (American Beauty, Six Feet Under, True Blood), whose new work Here & Now is only a mere two episodes deep. Is it worthy of the HBO primetime spot? Or is it, as some critics are saying, "painfully woke and trite"?
