I recently watched two newish series.

[B]BALLARD[/B] is a spinoff from the Bosch set of series, on Amazon. It stars Maggie Q as a detective put in charge of… and this will sound familiar… a ragtag crew investigating cold cases. Titus Welliver, Jamie Hector, and Mimi Rogers make a few appearances to tie the shows together. It’s an okay show—if you thought Bosch was okay.

[B]The Better Sister.[/B] Jessica Biel and Elizabeth Banks play estranged sisters. Banks was married to Corey Stoll first, and then it was Biel’s turn…. He ends up dead. The investigation is headed by an abrasive, wordy Kim Dickens. And there’s a frilly Mathew Modine with some interesting neckwear. Again, not bad, except for some elements of the trial, which were just stupid.

Sorry—three series.

Season two of [B]Such Brave Girls[/B]. Hulu, I think. It’s a British show (comedy) about a bad mother raising two bad daughters. Mom is intent upon landing a new dad who can pay for everything/a lifestyle upgrade, one daughter is aggressively aggressive and the other daughter is aggressively depressed and semi suicidal. The show was created and written by that second ‘daughter.’ This show is funny, but it is so very raw and unapologetically vulgar and rude. Nothing ‘politically correct’ about it. Lots of envelopes pushed. A lot of fun.
