It’s Emmys season, when networks and streamers debut starry new attractions aimed at awards glory.
On Netflix, the hotly anticipated series Ripley puts Sherlock breakout Andrew Scott back in the villain seat, after some time spent in the world of sensitive gay drama and as TV’s most famously hot priest. Creator Steve Zaillian takes a more restrained approach to the material than did Anthony Minghella in his brilliant 1999 film adaptation, but the show has its own kind of heat—in an economical, buttoned-up way.
But is the show perhaps a little too frothy to find favor with the Television Academy? Apple’s Sugar, meanwhile, could be too strange. A modern noir with a seriously odd twist, Sugar stars Colin Farrell as a private investigator traversing Los Angeles in search of a Hollywood mogul’s missing granddaughter. Farrell’s character, John Sugar, is competent and clever but never flashy. He has an almost otherworldly calm, a placidness of demeanor that is actually the key to the show’s true nature.
