NEW SHOWS
Barkskins
“The Sugared Plum” (B+)
“The Law of Two” (B+)
The show gets a tick better as the characters’ treacherous intentions come into focus. Everyone’s got a secret, and everyone’s got a scheme. That should keep things interesting for the rest of the season.
BINGEING
What We Do in the Shadows – Season 1 (B+ average)
A terrific first season that grows its world as it goes, with its quintet of main characters all richly drawn and hilarious in their own way.
