Following his work on Lost, Lindelof created The Leftovers and then Watchmen, both highly original series that stand in a class of their own. His most recent show, Mrs. Davis, is his strangest and perhaps most overlooked, so it’s worth watching if you haven’t seen it.
Although it didn’t become popular right away, the movie Flipped gradually gained a following, and now younger viewers are even asking for a sequel. While it’s likely to stay a beloved, one-time film, its recent addition to Netflix could help it find a whole new audience, 16 years after it first came out.
While some Western remakes, like the 2016 film The Magnificent Seven, struggle to gain wide appeal, shows such as Yellowstone, its prequels 1883 and 1923, and newer Westerns like Landman and The Madison demonstrate that the genre is experiencing a resurgence on television. Series like Netflix’s American Primeval and The Abandons confirm this trend.
Moving the premiere of The Rookie to the winter months has actually been a good move for ABC. The show is now one of the network’s most popular, and it also performs well on streaming platforms. Since using this later release date, The Rookie has consistently been a key part of ABC’s Tuesday night primetime schedule. It was still airing on Tuesdays when season eight began, but that’s no longer the case.
It would be a shame if HBO Max only offered older TV shows that people have forgotten, or that haven’t stood the test of time. Thankfully, a show like Six Feet Under is a great example of a series that’s not only remained good after 25 years, but has actually improved with age.

On the recent episode of John Rocha’s podcast, The Hot Mic, industry insider Jeff Sneider reported that Stellan Skarsgård turned down a role as Harvey Dent’s father, Christopher Dent, in the upcoming Batman sequel.
