Relativity is a BBC sitcom written by, and co-starring, Richard Herring that takes some aspects of his own life but creates a multi-generational epic that is just as convoluted as the likes of HBO's Succession (also, weirdly, written by British comedian) but on a far more personal level.

It's like a stew cooked from lots of leftover ingredients and spices. Kumiko […]

If you're like me, the show Goosebumps was originally a staple on your bookshelf before it was twenty minutes of a visual haunting.

It's no secret Christopher Nolan's Tenet endured its harshest test as a blockbuster theatrical-exclusive blockbuster on the front line.
