|
|
 | | Love Is Blind | | Speaking of drama: The third season of everyone’s favorite reality show was so juicy —seriously, can anything ever top the hot mess that was Zanab and Cole?—that you may wonder what’s left for season four. We have a feeling they’ll figure something out. | | Where to watch |

 |
| Blood Relatives |
| The kids are not all right when they come from a family where lying, cheating, and murder are the norm. And the parents are even worse! In honor of the Roys’ dysfunctional return to HBO this Sunday, here are more stinking rich clans whose ties are bloodier than usual. |
 | | Bloodline | | The creators of Damages pivot from legal drama to the illegal kind in this series, starring Kyle Chandler as the upright son of a seemingly respectable Florida family whose estranged brother (Ben Mendelsohn) stirs up some serious drama when he comes home for his parents’ 45th-anniversary party. Pass the popcorn. | | Where to watch |
|
|
 | | The Righteous Gemstones | | Televangelists? Corrupt? Color us shocked. Created by comedian Danny McBride, this satirical series about a bumbling family of holy rollers combines goofy comedy and violent intrigue, with a heavenly supporting cast that includes John Goodman, Walton Goggins, and Workaholics’ Adam DeVine. | | Where to watch |

 |
| Bullet Ballet |
| Most franchises run out of gas by their fourth installment. But the latest chapter in the book of Wick has critics in a frenzy, with rave reviews from around the world pouring in. |
- "[Director Chad] Stahelski and his team construct action sequences in a manner that somehow feels both urgent and [artistic] at the same time... The choreography of the action here can be simply breathtaking." — Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com
- “Stahelski’s magnum opus, a bone-crunching showcase of everything the director has honed and perfected over the course of the franchise, playing out over a massive three-hour runtime that absolutely breezes by.” — Hoai-Tran Bui, Inverse
- “Any one of its many (many) set pieces contains more action all by itself than most entire movies. This thing ain’t a ‘chapter.’ It’s a whole damn book.” — Matt Singer, ScreenCrush
