Roy Kent and Keeley Jones finally stopped circling around their feelings in Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 8, but the series gives them very little time to settle into being a couple again. By the following episode, their relationship is already facing a development much bigger than another disagreement about timing or whether they belong…
Apple TV’s “Brothers” spent its first two episodes turning a decades-old family rumor into Woody Harrelson’s private obsession.

After Ma Mac made it clear that digging into Clive Harrelson’s past could have consequences, Woody now has to search for the truth without giving Matthew…
Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 9 arrives with AFC Richmond’s Lady Greyhounds suddenly looking far less certain than the side that had begun climbing the table only weeks earlier.

Netflix’s LEGO One Piece turns the Straw Hats’ first major adventures into a fast, playful two-part retelling, with Usopp taking responsibility for bringing Chopper up to speed on everything that happened before he joined the crew. That immediately makes the recap unusual because Usopp remembers the broad events correctly but cannot resist improving his own…
Netflix’s East of Eden may belong to California’s Salinas Valley on the page, but Zoe Kazan’s seven-part adaptation found much of its early-20th-century America thousands of miles away. Florence Pugh leads the series as Cathy Ames, whose path becomes entangled with brothers Adam and Charles Trask before the story moves into another generation of the…

Florence Pugh, Christopher Abbott and Mike Faist drive…
LEGO One Piece recreates the first two seasons of Netflix’s live-action series, but it deliberately tells that familiar story through someone viewers already know should not be trusted with every detail. Usopp becomes the narrator for Chopper, giving him a highly personalized account of how Luffy assembled the Straw Hats and eventually entered the Grand…
Netflix’s LEGO One Piece does more than rebuild the live-action series in LEGO form. The two-part special lets Usopp tell Chopper how the Straw Hat Pirates came together, which immediately makes the recap less reliable because Usopp cannot resist improving his own role in almost every adventure. The broad journey remains recognizable, from Luffy meeting…
LEGO One Piece spends most of its two episodes looking back at adventures Chopper never experienced, but the ending finally reaches the point where his own story becomes part of the Straw Hats’ journey. Usopp’s recap arrives at Drum Island, where Nami’s illness brings the crew into Chopper’s life and ultimately gives Luffy the doctor…

The premiere establishes…
Line of Fire introduced Logan Welling as one of the few people in Clare Hollingsworth’s life who seemed to exist outside her family’s world of federal agencies, presidential protection and interdepartmental rivalry. That made the end of the premiere especially unsettling, because Logan’s encounter with Jack revealed that Clare’s seemingly ordinary boyfriend had secrets of…
