“The Acolyte”, season 1 (Disney +)
A century before The Phantom Menace, creator Leslye Headland focuses on those who live in the shadow of Jedi power, and weaves a story of conflicted sisterhood. A careful project, and not without originality.

“Mary & George”, miniseries (MyCanal)
A chic and shocking historical drama that is worth watching less for its court intrigues and manipulative characters than for its top-notch cast, dominated by a Julianne Moore in great form.

“Anonymous”, season 1 (Polar +)
A depressed history teacher regains his taste for life by changing into an anonymous vigilante. We can avoid watching this Dutch series with its infantile intrigue, a sort of failed mix between Houellebecq, Spiderman and “Fight Club”.
