Winter TV Finales - The Resort - Season One

The Resort is the latest Peacock series which streamed in Australia on Stan. Concluding it's eight episode run at the start of September, it's one of my very last Winter TV Finales posts.

Starring William Jackson Harper (Love Life - still not renewed BTW) & Cristin Milioti (Made for Love, one of my Winter Binges) as a married couple on vacation at a holiday resort for their 10th anniversary, where they are drawn into a mystery that took place fifteen years before. 

The series commenced late July, airing an episode weekly until recently. 

Noah (Jackson Harper) and Emma (Milioti) are vacationing in the Mayan Riviera for their 10th anniversary. Noah has been content with life, whereas Emma feels like their marriage isn't advancing. They are then pulled into an unsolved mystery of two missing persons from fifteen years ago, which tests the resolve of their marriage.


It's slightly odway, not funny like the recent Emmy award winning resort series, The White Lotus, but not as crazy as producer Sam Esmail's Mr Robot.

Was it worth the eight episode binge? Well yes and no. TV heats up in the next week or so, with 9-1-1, Atlanta, The Handmaid's Tale, Big Sky, The Cleaning Lady and more returning.

It's about to get competitive, so if rolling news coverage isn't your bag, there is so much drama on the way. Or you can always just catch up on The Crown on Netflix.

Until tomorrow! Laters!
