THE PENGUIN

HBO Original

HBO + MAX

We always love watching a good DC Comics and this limited series of The Pengiun definitely had us enthralled from the ffirst episode as we get to see Oswald "Oz" Cobb (Colin Farrell) who is navigating his current role and takes the next steps into his destiny to control Gotham City. We see the city in a bit of a state with seawall's collapse that Joker implemented. With a power vacuum that took place when Carmine Falcone died he must figure out to deal with his childrenSofia Falcone (Cristin Milioti) and Alberto Falcone (Michael Zegen) as well as dealing with the Maroni family who is helmed by Salvatore Maroni (Clancy Brown) who is in prison!

We also watch as he puts his empire together and we get to know more about his origin story! We're excited to enjoy the remainder of the season and we also enjoyed the companion podcast, The Penguin Official Podcast which drops new episodes every week immediately following the release of the TV series.

THE CIRCLE

Netflix Original

Netflix

Alert! S7 of The Circle, a social media competition is out now - send message! We have loved every episodes where we meet an array of contestants who come to the game without seeing one another and that only have the ability to communicate via Circle Chats. Whether they play as themselves, are catfish or are a hybrid of the two, they must interact with one another, build alliances, figure out how to navigate the game, rate one another, and eventually make it to he final round where one winner will be awarded $100,000 for their efforts! As is the case each season, we see our favorites, we enjoy seeing who connects with who, and it's always fun when they come together for their reunion to see the players put a face to the name of the people that they have interacted with.

THE PRESTIGE TV PODCAST

The Ringer

Spotify

We watch a number of shows and we love when it's prestige - these are shows of high quality that are known for their high production value as well as complex plots. Shows such as The Bear, Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, and more would be examples. What we love about The Prestige TV Podcast by the team at The Ringer is that they have a number of episodes where they break down some of the hottest shows to talk about what is taking place in the show, fan theories, interviews that include actors or creative teams that are involved and more! It's a great way to ensure that you're on track with what is going on in the series. It's always great to see if the show you're watching is being covered by their ever growing team.

SLY

Netflix Original

Netflix

When it comes to an action star, Sylvester Stallone gave us characters and stories that allowed us to enjoy big explosions, navigate hardship, and still be able to find the sensitivities that lies within whom he portrays.

For those that don't know how he made a niche for himself, this documentary takes you through his beginning acting days, meeting and befriending Henry Winkler, and being willing to play roles where he was typecast just so he could get his foot in the door.

Ultimately, he realized that if he wanted to truly use his gifts in the way that he saw himself, he would need to write, direct, and act in his own movies. Thus, he created the Rocky franchise and the Rambo franchise and proved that he could bring his characters to the screen that we could cheer for as they proved that good could truly prevail over evil.

Sly also shows how he navigated the industry by continuing to act in other films, even if they were outside of how we saw him and how he continued to prove that he could keep pushing the envelope of the franchise with The Expendables!

He also reflects on his life as he continues to do what he loves most. In addition to Sly, there are a number of people who share their thoughts from Quentin Tarantino, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Talia Shire, Henry Winkler and Frank Stallone Jr.
