    The Diplomat (Netflix S4, 8 episodes)
    Can’t say much about Season 4 except that you need to see it. We can recap Season 3 though and how Russia lost contact with one of its submarines. It was carrying a highly dangerous nuclear-powered weapon known as the Poseidon, and ended up several miles off the northeast coast of England.
    US Ambassador to Great Britain Kate Wyler (Lerrie Russell) convinced Prime Minister Nicol Trowbridge (Rory Kinnear) that the US and UK should work together to bury the weapon in cement. But instead, US President Grace Penn (Allison Janney)and her Vice President Hal Wyler (Rufus Sewell) secretly sent an American submarine to capture the Poseidon for themselves.

  • Dustfall, Carrie, Gnomes
    Oct 17 2026

    Dustfall (ABC iview, 6 episodes)
    Dustfall is accurately being described as an atmospheric tropic noir that follows a detective, Antigone “Tig” Pollard (Anna Torv) whose sense of justice is challenged by a world where victims are doubted, predators hide in plain sight and the legal system often falls short.
    After moving back home where she lives on acreage in a lovely old home that needs some TLC, Tig is called in to investigate a sexual assault case that becomes more complex after a key suspect turns up dead. As Tig hunts for the truth and the list of suspects grows, she confronts memories of her experiences she had growing up.

    Gnomes (Stan, 8 episodes)
    Stan notes Gnomes evokes the splatter-gore spirit of classic 80s monster mashups like Gremlins.
    As the series starts we meet Senior Sergeant Arnold Kipps (Asa Butterfield) who is having a bad day in suburbia. His ex-partner and ex-flame Ellie McKay (Megan Smart) has just returned to Nompton to shut down his police station, right when an ancient, evil force is awakened by the bloodthirsty Gnome Queen. Unleashing a nightmare horde of killer ceramic gnomes upon the unsuspecting town, Nompton is plunged into chaos.

    Carrie (Prime Video, 8 episodes)
    Based on Stephen King’s successful debut novel, Carrie is a reinvention of a classic coming‑of‑age story, adapted for television for the first time by showrunner Mike Flanagan.
    The series starts with media reports of a high school fire that spreads outside the school ground.
    We then go back a few years to home‑schooled Carrie White (Summer H. Howell) has spent her life hidden away inside the walls of her home with her fiercely protective mother, Margaret (Samantha Sloyan). After her father’s sudden death thrusts her into the state ecosystem of public a high school, with Carrie is forced to navigate a bullying from her classmates. Something that is compounded in the social media age. The anger Carrie builds during these taunts triggers telekinetic powers.
