"You might recognise Cecilie Fjellhy from Netflix's 2022 documentary The Tinder Swindler she was one of the victims of fraudster Simon Leviev. This series represents another related dispatch from the wild west of modern communication. Fjellhy is turning detective, joining forces with formidable private investigator Brianne Joseph (I'm like a pitbull: when I grab hold of something, I don't let it go) to unmask romantic scammers on behalf of men and women who have been duped."
"Another entry into the patchy pantheon of bands who only really exist in the context of TV shows. This earnest YA drama tells the story of the Runarounds, a band who popped up in the third season of mystery series Outer Banks but now have an origin story of their own. They play a clean-cut brand of pop-rock but, like all semi-fictional bands, have a backstory full of strife."
"But while the return of Gwendoline Christie's Principal Weems is a fine act of fan service, it won't be much fun for Wednesday. As the concluding four episodes of this wickedly enjoyable second season arrive, she has a lot on her plate. Worse still, most of it is her own fault for a start, can she recapture Tyler before he endangers her family? This show is an absolute treat, imaginatively realised and swarming with witty, macabre detail."
Cecilie Fjellhy partners with private investigator Brianne Joseph to unmask romantic scammers, combining thorough online preparation with physical confrontations. The series spotlights the widespread nature of romance fraud and aids duped men and women. The Runarounds origin drama expands a band introduced in Outer Banks into a coming-of-age YA story about pop-rock ambition, frontman William's ride-or-die belief, and pressures from self-doubt, disapproving parents and university departures. Wednesday's concluding four episodes of season two feature Gwendoline Christie's Principal Weems returning, escalating stakes as Tyler threatens Wednesday's family, and abundant witty, macabre visual detail.
