Spoiler-Free Review of “The Burbs” on Peacock: Keke Palmer Shines in this Quirky Mystery Reboot

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“These people are CRAZY…”

The Burbs premiered on Peacock on February 8th 2026 with all eight episodes available to stream now. The mystery comedy series (based on the 1989 film, The Burbs) stars Keke Palmer, Jack Whitehall, Kapil Talwalkar, and Julia Duffy. Each episode runs for approximately 40 to 42 minutes.

Newlyweds, Rob and Samira relocate to his childhood home in the suburbs with their baby, but Samira begins to suspect that her new neighbor across the street may be hiding deadly secrets connected to her husband’s past.

Here is the trailer:

The Burbs has a solid cast and some fun moments sprinkled in, but does it do enough to earn a watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Keke Palmer steals the show!

She is the BEST part of the series by far and the main reason I tuned into this one. I thought she was absolutely fantastic and I loved her character. Some of the other neighbors were fun as well, but without her, a lot of things probably wouldn’t have landed.

Solid second half.

In a lot of ways, this show reminded me of a mash-up of Desperate Housewives and Only Murders in the Building with a few Easter eggs and cameos thrown into the mix for fans of the original film starring Tom Hanks.

It took a while to find its way, but I thought the second half of the series was a lot of fun and a few of the twists caught me by surprise.

The Cons:

Longer than it needed to be.

There were definitely some pacing issues with this one. I thought the first half of the series was very slow and I almost tuned out a few times. Keke Palmer kept me invested, but there was a lot of fluff and extra stuff that slowed down everything surrounding the main mystery.

A lot of the humor didn’t land for me either, but I think this improved in the second half of the series. The first half just felt very unsure of itself, but we eventually got there.

We’re left with a cliffhanger at the end of season 1 so I will be annoyed if this doesn’t get picked up for a second season, but we’ll have to wait and see.

So am I in or out?

I’m in about 75 percent…

The Burbs takes a while to get going, but there is a solid mystery at its core worth digging into.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Another Simple Favor” on Prime Video: A Gorgeous, but Unnecessary Sequel

**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“Let me fill you in on how we got here…”

Another Simple Favor released on Prime Video on May 1st 2025. A sequel to the 2018 film, the dark comedy thriller stars Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively, Henry Golding, Michele Morrone, and Allison Janney. It runs for approximately two hours.

Stephanie reluctantly agrees to be Emily’s maid of honor, traveling to Capri for an elaborate wedding, but she finds herself caught up in a dangerous scheme for revenge.

Here is the trailer:

Another Simple Favor tries to channel the quirky dark charm of the first movie with a layered mystery, but does it do enough to earn a watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Incredible fashion to compliment a beautiful scenery!

I loved Blake Lively’s wardrobe in the first movie and of course I had high expectations for the sequel. The film did not disappoint in the fashion department. All of Blake Lively’s outfits were to die for! They took my breath away. Wow!

I also loved the setting. This movie was definitely aesthetically pleasing.

Fun seeing Anna and Blake on screen together again!

While the banter wasn’t quite the same this time around, I still enjoyed seeing these two back together on screen. There were some fun moments sprinkled in and I think they both did the best they could with what they were given.

The Cons:

Over-complicated things…

Where do I start? Well, this movie felt very forced to me. The humor didn’t land the way it did with the first movie. It just felt like they were trying too hard to capture the essence of the original film, but it didn’t feel very genuine.

The mystery didn’t hook me either, which was disappointing, and the reveals were beyond silly and all over the place.

So am I in or out?

I’m 50/50 on this one…

Another Simple Favor felt like a scrapped season of The White Lotus, but there were some guilty pleasure elements and noteworthy fashion to indulge in.

Overall, this film seemed very messy and unsure of its direction and I don’t think it was needed.

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Another Simple Favor in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Tell Me Lies” Season Two on Hulu: Still Just as Addicting!

**This is a spoiler-free review for season two so feel free to read on!**

“I will never forgive you for any of it…”

Tell Me Lies season two released on Hulu on September 4th 2024 with the first two episodes available to stream now. The remaining six episodes will air weekly. Based on the novel of the same name and produced by Emma Roberts, the romance-drama series stars Grace Van Patten, Jackson James White, Catherine Missal, and Spencer House. Each episode runs for approximately 48-52 minutes.

Summer is over and Lucy returns to college, hoping to leave her toxic relationship with Stephen in the past, but things become complicated when she runs into him at a party, bringing back old wounds and secrets.

Here is the trailer:

Tell Me Lies season two is already off to a fantastic start with plenty of juicy drama to indulge in and some new faces to spice things up. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Hooked once again!

Season one did a really great job of hooking me with each episode and I have to say that season two is off to an even better start. Once again, we have the mystery in the future connecting to the events in the past, but some of the newer elements introduced already have my mind buzzing with possibility.

It’s rare to find worthy college dramas. I loved Felicity when it aired, but most of the other teen dramas were initially set in high school. It’s nice to watch a show with a more mature feel to it. Sure, there’s plenty of soapy drama, but it doesn’t feel as whiny or overdone in the college environment, which makes this a refreshing watch.

Lucy is even more interesting this time around.

I really love her character because she is flawed in so many ways. It makes her more realistic and she has such an edgy vibe going for her, which is fun to watch. She makes mistakes repeatedly, but she’s still trying her best to deal with her inner turmoil. I love that she is already taking a stand in season two, refusing to play the victim. I really want her to get even more unhinged with her outbursts and I’m confident we’ll get there.

In season one, I wasn’t really a fan of a lot of the other supporting characters, but I’m liking them a lot more in season two. They’re getting more layers and having Lucifer’s Tom Ellis in the mix now is a very good thing. He’s already a scene stealer!

The Cons:

Needed a refresher!

I really should have binge-watched season one before starting season two. It’s been some time and I’m a little fuzzy on certain details. I would definitely recommend watching the recap in the beginning to get up to speed, but a full re-watch may be necessary. There’s a lot to remember!

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

Tell Me Lies season two is guilty pleasure worthy and then some!

We’re off to a fantastic start so far and I can’t wait to watch the rest of the episodes to find out what happens next!

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Tell Me Lies in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

DON’T TAKE THE JOB…

It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

Spoiler-Free Review of “The Hardy Boys” Season 3 on Hulu: Saved the Best for Last!

**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“No loose ends…”

The Hardy Boys (season 3) premiered on Hulu on July 26th 2023 with eight final episodes available to stream now. The series stars Rohan Campbell, Alexander Elliot, Bea Santos, Keana Lyn, Riley O’Donnell, and Bailee Madison. Each episode runs for approximately 42-44 minutes.

Based on the iconic book series, this new re-imagining of The Hardy Boys takes place in the 1980’s. Frank and Joe Hardy are back one more time to solve a new mystery plaguing the town of Bridgeport, but will they find all the answers they are looking for?

Here is the trailer:

The Hardy Boys flew under the radar for quite some time, but it was a fresh and fun take on the teen mystery genre without all the drama in-between. Does the final season measure up? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Bailee Madison livens up the show!

She was a welcomed new character and I have to say that she really breathed some new life into this series. I love all of the characters on this show, but they needed someone new to spice things up and I think she accomplished that and then some.

We also got to see some returning favorites as well, which made sense for the final season.

A few solid twists and ends the way it should.

I have to admit that I was thrown a few times during the final season. I loved the twists and that last one really had my head spinning.

Season three may have packed in a lot, but I think that it successfully closed out its story while still leaving the door open for more mysteries beyond the series. Everything was wrapped up neatly, which I appreciated.

The Cons:

Rocky start.

The beginning of season three felt really complicated and more sci-fi than anything else. When I think about The Hardy Boys, I envision traditional mysteries. It’s fine that it dabbles over to the sci-fi side, but the opening few episodes felt really odd to me.

Thankfully we moved on from that and the final season quickly became my favorite season yet.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!

The final season of The Hardy Boys delivers with excellent pacing and fantastic reveals while managing to end the series in a satisfying way for mystery fans everywhere.

I’ll miss this series. It was a lot of fun!

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on The Hardy Boys in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Susie Searches” on Demand: A Dark Comedy I Didn’t Know I Needed!

**This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!**

“I want to solve the unsolvable…”

Susie Searches released on demand on June 29th 2023. The dark comedy thriller stars Kiersey Clemons, Alex Wolff, Rachel Sennott, Isaac Cole Powell, and Ken Marino. It runs for an hour and forty-five minutes.

Susie has always loved mysteries and true crime, but when her own podcast fails to bring in listeners, she seizes the opportunity to take on a case involving a missing student on campus, but things quickly spiral out of control when she gains more popularity than she was ready for.

Here is the trailer:

Susie Searches is a fantastic mix of Veronica Mars and Ingrid Goes West, delivering with an addicting mystery and plenty of twists to keep you guessing. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Images courtesy of Vertical Entertainment

Not afraid to take some risks…

I wasn’t really sure what to expect with this film, but I was pleasantly surprised when it took some dark twists as the movie progressed. At first I wasn’t sure how I felt about this, but I love that it went for something new and unique rather than recycling the same material we have seen again and again with female sleuths.

This movie was fresh and thoroughly entertaining because of this and I thought the performances were really good. Kiersey Clemons commanded the screen and it’s always great to see Rachel Sennott and Ken Marino in pretty much anything. They added to the dark comedy aspects, helping this film feel a little lighter.

Not predictable.

I was fully captivated by this movie and I can honestly say that I couldn’t predict what was going to happen next. This film descended into darkness on several occasions and really took a magnifying glass to the dangers of wanting internet popularity without hitting us over the head with it.

I thought the pacing was spot on and that ending was really fantastic!

The Cons:

Has an identity crisis at times…

This film really couldn’t make up its mind about what it wanted to be. I personally didn’t mind the switch in genres and actually thought it made the movie better, but it was a little erratic at times. In a way, I actually think that this mirrored the indecision going on within Susie so I can’t really fault it that much, but be prepared to have things change up on you without any warning.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!

Susie Searches is offbeat, quirky, and absolutely engrossing!

I think we have a potential cult classic here. This was such a refreshing watch!

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Susie Searches in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” in Theaters: An Entertaining Mystery

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“I need a great case…”

Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery released in theaters on November 23rd 2022 and will be available to stream on Netflix on December 23rd 2022. The whodunnit mystery film stars Daniel Craig, Kate Hudson, Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Dave Bautista, and Leslie Odom Jr. It runs for approximately two hours and nineteen minutes.

Here is the trailer:

Glass Onion is a delightful sequel with the perfect blend of humor and mystery to keep you entertained until the very end. Is it worthy of YOUR next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Images courtesy of Netflix

Talented cast.

The first Knives Out film had an all-star cast and the sequel does not disappoint in this department. I loved all of the characters and I thought the performances were top-notch. Kate Hudson was a scene-stealer!

Daniel Craig was fantastic as always as the quirky Benoit Blanc and Janelle Monáe was absolutely incredible in this.

Images courtesy of Netflix

Perfect balance of humor and mystery.

I loved the quirky dynamic between the group, which added to the humor. This was such a clever and entertaining mystery with an Agatha Christie feel. The sequel felt different from the original film, but that actually worked in its favor. The sequel was fresh and fun, even though some reveals were slightly predictable.

There were also plenty of well-placed twists to throw you off your detective game so you may not have it all figured out…

The Cons:

Images courtesy of Netflix

Takes a little while to get going…

I get that we needed some set-up to get to know each of our suspects, but I would have liked for everyone to have gathered at the island a little bit sooner. That being said, I still enjoyed all of the extra fluff.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

A captivating mystery stuffed with entertaining moments.

Mystery fans will thoroughly enjoy the sequel, which cleverly finds a voice of its own, separating itself from the original film in the best way possible.

Spoiler-Free Review of “Wednesday” on Netflix: Jenna Ortega is Fantastic

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Emotion equals weakness…”

Wednesday premiered on November 23rd on Netflix with eight episodes available to stream now. The supernatural drama series stars Jenna Ortega, Christina Ricci, Gwendoline Christie, Emma Myers, and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Each episode is approximately 48-50 minutes.

While attending Nevermore Academy, Wednesday Addams finds herself caught up in a mystery involving her parents from twenty-five years ago.

Here is the trailer:

Wednesday is addicting in all the right ways with an interesting mystery and wickedly fun premise. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

All hail, Jenna Ortega!

I expected her to be really good in this role, but she was even better than I could have hoped for. She was the BEST part of the series. This may be my favorite role by her yet. She does a fantastic job of paying tribute to the character while really putting her own spin on her as well.

I enjoyed the other characters as well and it was so wonderful seeing Christina Ricci in this one too for obvious reasons.

Emma Myers was a scene-stealer as Wednesday’s roommate along with Thing. Even though a lot of the characters fit into tropes, they were still a lot of fun to watch and I enjoyed the supporting characters more in this one than I typically do with other teen supernatural dramas.

Easy to binge-watch with very entertaining moments.

I enjoyed the sleuth-mystery approach to this series and even though we got to see some of the iconic characters from the Addams family, this was clearly Wednesday’s show and we stayed true to that, which I appreciated.

I loved each episode and the typical teen moments were actually really entertaining because of Wednesday’s reaction to them. The pacing was a little slow at first, but it improved significantly as the episodes continued. By the time I got to episode three, I was completely hooked.

The Cons:

Predictable at times with your typical teen drama.

I saw the ending reveal coming and I thought some things were easy to figure out, but I still enjoyed everything. There was also some typical teen drama in this series with another love interest triangle. In a lot of ways, this show was like a mashup of Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Nancy Drew. I love both of those series so that’s not really a con, but some of the moments of drama could have easily appeared in any show on The CW.

That being said, the drama wasn’t overdone so it didn’t take away from the series that much at all.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!!!

Jenna Ortega is perfection!

This show was so entertaining and really put a unique spin on The Addams Family, allowing Wednesday to truly shine.

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on Wednesday in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “The Devil’s Hour” on Prime Video: Creepy and Bizarre

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“You don’t know me…”

The Devil’s Hour released on Prime Video on October 28th 2022 with six episodes available to stream now. The supernatural crime drama series stars Jessica Raine, Peter Capaldi, Nikesh Patel, Phil Dunster, and Thomas Dominique. Each episode runs for approximately 58-60 minutes.

Every night at 3:33 am, a woman wakes up during the devil’s hour as she starts to wonder if her nightmares and hallucinations are all too real.

Here is the trailer:

The Devil’s Hour has an intriguing mystery at its core and an interesting mashup of genres. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Solid performances…

Jessica Raine and Peter Capaldi were both so good in this. I really believed Jessica’s portrayal of Lucy. She elevated this series in a lot of ways. Peter Capaldi had such a creepy presence throughout the entire series. He gave me the chills several times and I’ll probably have a few nightmares of my own thanks to him.

Well played!

An interesting mystery.

I personally enjoyed the mashup of a serial killer crime drama with something supernatural. The pairing was slightly odd, but it somehow worked for the majority of the series. As we got to more of the reveals later in the series, we lost this magic a little, but the overall tone and vibe of this series was chilling and captivating.

The Cons:

Goes off course…

By the time I got to the end of the series, my head was spinning. There were so many different elements jam-packed into this series and I’m not sure that all of them worked. I preferred the first half of the series. Once things were out in the open, I felt exhausted and I’m still not sure that all of my questions were answered.

I also thought the episodes were too long and I lost interest a few times because of the pacing.

So am I in or out?

I’m in about 75 percent…

A chilling and eerie premise with top-notch performances.

This series was far from perfect, but it still had a lot going for it, making this an interesting watch.

I hope you enjoyed the review and feel free to post your own thoughts and theories on The Devil’s Hour in the comments section below. Thanks so much for reading and happy viewing!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Ghost Island” on Nickelodeon: Season Three has a Spooky Summer Feel

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“Not every hotel is haunted…”

Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Ghost Island premiered on Nickelodeon on July 30th 2022. There will be four episodes in total that will air weekly. The series stars Telci Huynh, Dior Goodjohn, Luca Padovan, Chance Hurtsfield, and Conor Sherry. Each episode runs for approximately 50-90 minutes.

Based on the original Are You Afraid of the Dark? series that aired in the 1990’s, this revival is now on its third season. Only we get a new cast, a new location, and an entirely new mystery. The Midnight Society is ready for the case when a group of friends stay at a hotel on Ghost Island, learning that room 13 may be haunted.

Here is the trailer:

Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Ghost Island has a spooky mystery at its core and a new group of characters to be excited about. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

A fun new premise.

The summer release for the third season of Are You Afraid of the Dark? is perfect for this new premise. The opening scene is actually kind of terrifying and the setting is beyond gorgeous, transporting me right to Ghost Island along with our new characters. I’m anxious to find out more about what’s truly going on with this particular ghost mystery and I think that the series is off to a good start, hooking its audience right away.

More layers for our new characters.

I really enjoyed the first two seasons of the reboot series, but so far I am really liking these characters the most because we are actually spending some time on character development. Our main character has a trauma in her past related to ghosts and I think that this was a smart decision because it’s helping me connect to our new Midnight Society that much more.

The new characters are a lot of fun and I think that the younger generation will really connect with them.

The Cons:

Not as strong as season two yet…

I really like the new reboot series and I think it’s helping kids horror get some well deserved recognition so I don’t have too many cons here. The scares are watered down, but you should expect that. So far I still prefer season two with the Shadowman, but I’m keeping an open mind with this season because I think it has a lot of potential.

So am I in or out?

I’m in!

This show is so much fun to watch and I think it is really helping the kids horror genre flourish. I can’t wait to watch more and I’m ready to book my next trip to Ghost Island!

Spoiler-Free Review of “Two Summers” on Netflix: Blackmail and Friendship

*This is a spoiler-free review so feel free to read on!*

“To friendship…”

Two Summers (Twee Zomers) premiered on Netflix on June 3rd 2022. The Belgian drama thriller series features six episodes available to stream now. It stars An Miller, Koen De Bouw, Ruth Becquart, Kevin Janssens, and Inge Paulussen. Each episode runs for approximately 44-48 minutes minutes.

A group of friends reunite on a private island after thirty years, as past secrets are revealed that could destroy them forever.

Here is the trailer:

Two Summers channels Who Killed Sara? by weaving the past and present together in an addicting mystery thriller. Is it worthy of your next watch? Let’s find out…

The Pros:

Images courtesy of Netflix

An addicting whodunit plot.

Much like Who Killed Sara, this series had an addicting mystery that connected from the past to the present. I was trying to piece everything together as the episodes continued, which made it an engaging and compelling watch. There was a core mystery centered around a horrific crime, but there were also other secrets revealed throughout the series that kept me on the edge of my seat.

Images courtesy of Netflix

Gorgeous setting.

I don’t know what it is, but I just love thriller series that take place on an island. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. I also thought the choice of setting really showed how things can appear to be beautiful and peaceful on a superficial level, but the darkest parts of someone can be kept hidden.

The Cons:

Images courtesy of Netflix

Dark and heavy content…

The crime in question was very difficult to watch and viewers should pay attention to the warning messages at the beginning of certain episodes. Some of the content in this particular series was emotionally draining at times, so be prepared for that.

So am I in or out?

Images courtesy of Netflix

I’m in!

Two Summers is a decent mystery thriller that will keep you guessing.

This was an addicting watch from start to finish, but be prepared for some dark and heavy content.
