Every Friday, I let you know the latest announcements about when new, imported TV shows will finally be arriving on your screens – assuming anyone’s bought any, of course.
I know what this feature’s called, but for once I can’t help you, since all the acquisitions this week have been shows that haven’t even aired in the US yet or which I didn’t bother watching since they were on Audience and sounded a bit pervy. All the same, Netflix wants them.
Beyond (US) Netflix UK: January 3rd
You Me Her (US) Netflix UK: January 18th
Riverdale (US) Netflix UK: January 27th
Seeing as I haven’t reviewed them, have some trailers instead.
I’m Rob Buckley, a journalist who writes for UK media magazines that most people have never heard of although you might have heard me on the podcast Lockdown Land or Radio 5 Live’s Saturday Edition or Afternoon Edition. I’ve edited Dreamwatch, Sprocket and Cambridge Film Festival Daily; been technical editor for TV producers magazine Televisual; reviewed films for the short-lived newspaper Cambridge Insider; written features for the even shorter-lived newspaper Soho Independent; and was regularly sarcastic about television on the blink-and-you-missed-it “web site for urban hedonists” The Tribe. Since going freelance, I've contributed to the likes of Broadcast, Total Content + Media, Action TV, Off The Telly, Action Network, TV Scoop and The Custard TV.
