Eddie inherits his father\u2019s massive English estate upon his passing, only to discover it\u2019s home to an enormous weed empire overseen by a woman named Susie Glass (<strong>Kaya Scodelario<\/strong>). Reluctant at first, Eddie comes to understand that he must navigate and accept his role in the dangerous underworld of British crime to protect his family and his home from the many gangsters who threaten them.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Gentlemen<\/em> is a fun and action-packed expansion on the 2019 movie that sees original director Guy Ritchie with credits for creating, story-writing and directing two of the episodes in this eight-episode season. Yet even when bereft of Ritchie at the helm, the show does a great job of embracing his signature slick style with fast-paced dialogue, sharp humor and eccentric criminal characters. The supporting cast also includes <em>Breaking Bad\u2019s<\/em> <strong>Giancarlo Esposito<\/strong> and three-time Ritchie collaborator <strong>Vinnie Jones<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>\u2018Altered Carbon\u2019 (2018-2020)<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Altered Carbon Season 1 Trailer | Rotten Tomatoes TV\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-Yt89b5AcwY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Based on the cyberpunk novel from 2002, <em>Altered Carbon<\/em> is set 300 years into the future, in which society has been totally transformed by technology that allows human beings to avoid death and, instead, simply interchange between different bodies. Takeshi Kovacs (<strong>Joel Kinnaman<\/strong>) is the sole survivor of a group of rebel warriors who attempted an uprising against the new world order and were defeated, his consciousness having been imprisoned for ages until it is suddenly allowed the chance to live again by way of wealthy businessman Laurens Bancroft (<strong>James Purefoy<\/strong>). However, this second chance comes with a catch: Kovacs must solve the mystery of who killed Bancroft in his former body.<\/p>\n<p>Fans of\u00a0<em>Altered Carbon<\/em> wax poetic on the show\u2019s status as an incredibly underrated gem, having been axed after only two seasons, while it generally received positive reviews from critics. Nevertheless, the sci-fi thriller is still very well worth your time \u2014 the immersive, high-budget production design that fully embraces cyberpunk aesthetic, engaging noir-style mystery plot and dense exploration of mortality and human consciousness make it an ambitious must-watch. Season 2 swaps Kinnaman for <strong>Anthony Mackie<\/strong>, as Kovacs takes on a new body.<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-narrow.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-narrow\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/wp-content\/themes\/us-weekly\/assets\/img\/newsletter-bg-wide.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"newsletter-form__background background-wide\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<h2>\u2018Santa Clarita Diet\u2019 (2017-2019)<\/h2>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Santa Clarita Diet | Meet the Hammonds | Netflix\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/F-XlXPyJRSY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Married real estate agents Sheila (<strong>Drew Barrymore<\/strong>) and Joel (<strong>Timothy Olyphant<\/strong>) live a normal life raising their teenage daughter Abby (<strong>Liv Hewson<\/strong>) in Santa Clarita, California.
