Cheers and Jeers

by Damian Holbrook

Cheers to vet Ted Danson.

Now that Hulu and Netflix are carrying episodes of NBC’s perfect afterlife
comedy The Good Place, you have no forking excuse not to be all caught
up and ready to root for the devilishly delightful Danson on Emmy night.

Jeers to Mr. Robot
for heading into sleep mode. A yearlong wait between seasons is bad enough, but now that USA has opted to ctrl-alt-del the stellar hacker drama after its upcoming fourth season (in 2019), the idea of losing Christian Slater and Rami Malek’s (pictured) twisty dynamic already has us caught in a deep web of depression.

Jeers to Sharp Objects

for sticking it to viewers who cut out early. If you changed the channel at the end of the harrowing limited-series finale, there’s a good chance you too missed the surprise mid-credits scene that revealed who helped Amma (Eliza Scanlen, pictured) kill those Wind Gap girls. Not cool, HBO.

Cheers to Younger
for growing up so nicely. Buoyed by the dazzling Sutton Foster (pictured, with Peter Hermann) and her to-die-for cast, the gem wrapped its best season by (mostly) shedding Liza’s faux-millennial secret and setting the stage for a Team Charles romance plagued by very adult realities. (Season 6 moves to Paramount Network.) Bring. It. On.
