Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticTowards the end of the new limited series “The Investigation,” the show’s central police inquiry seems stalled. Nothing is moving in the right direction, and all players seem understandably frustrated.

Danielle Turchiano Senior Features Editor, TVIn Stephen King’s 1982 novella “Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption,” the prolific horror writer wrote that “all of geology is the study of pressure. And time, of course.” Nick Cammilleri and Zackary Drucker’s HBO docuseries “The Lady and the Dale” ended up being the product of the same two elements.“The Lady and the Dale” is a four-part series that examines the life and entrepreneurship of Elizabeth Carmichael, a former con-artist-turned-hopeful-automotive industry disruptor.

Throughout her long, madcap and utterly singular life, Elizabeth Carmichael boasted a talent for remaking reality. Carmichael had little use for the way things were — not when it came to her body, nor to America’s ailing car industry of the 1970s.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticBritney Spears was a symbol for her entire public life. And, even in her seclusion, we can’t stop seeing her as something more, and less, than simply a person.The new Samantha Stark-directed documentary “Framing Britney Spears,” produced by the New York Times and airing on Feb.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticIn its first season, “Euphoria” was a lightning bolt.The HBO series, crackling with oddity and possibility, generated noise and light in a manner that felt new, and overdue. The show told stories about the TikTok generation with all the emotional excess that comes with actually being a teen.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticRussell Tovey is one of TV’s great discoveries of the last several years. The British actor seems perpetually cast as the cad, the overly assured fellow whose pride brings him in for a fall — and yet his charm and some innate vulnerable quality a couple of layers down keep us, if not ever on his side, then at least engaged in what lies ahead for him.

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV CriticThe CBS drama “Walker, Texas Ranger” — co-created by eventual Oscar-winner Paul Haggis and airing from 1993 to 2001 — was foundational to the myth of Chuck Norris. Sure, the actor had been in plenty of martial arts films before, but the idea of Norris as all-powerful that flourished in corny online jokes was nourished by hundreds of weekly episodes depicting hand-to-hand combat as the tool of justice in the Lone Star State. It was a formula that would seem to resist modernization, both because its earnestness is out of vogue in cynical times and because this is an especially precarious moment to launch a big-tent show anchored in the world of law enforcement.
