‘Good Cop, Bad Cop’ (2023)

I’m really excited about this new crime drama! It’s about two detectives who have totally different ways of doing things, and they’re forced to partner up on some really intense cases. It looks like it’s going to be a deep dive into the darker side of the city, and how all this police work affects the people doing it, both professionally and personally. It officially drops on January 6th, and from what I’ve seen, it’s a really raw and realistic look at what it’s like to be a cop, and all the politics that go on behind the scenes.

‘Unlocked: A Jail Experiment’ (2024)

This documentary series takes a look at a groundbreaking experiment in a detention facility, where inmates are given more freedom and responsibility. The goal is to see if a less strict environment helps them successfully rejoin society. The show follows the experiences of both the staff and the inmates as they adapt to these changes. The entire season will be available to stream starting Wednesday, January 7th, and offers a fresh look at the American justice system and efforts to reform prisons.
