Deadloch Amazon Studios, OK Great Productions, Guesswork Television Amazon Prime Video #whatonwhatsgood Express Review Deadloch is an Australian comedy/crime show. It is set in a town called Deadloch, Tasmania.  In the first episode, Trent Latham (Barry Wheeler) is found naked and dead on a beach.  The question is can Sergeant Dulcie Collins (Kate Box) and Det. Eddie Redcliffe (Madeleine Sami) work together to solve the mystery?  It's a whodunnit. Enjoy! Description Deadloch is an eight-part crime comedy. When a local man turns up dead on a beach, two vastly different detectives are thrown together to solve the case. Deadloch puts a comedic spin on the crime genre, completely flipping it and challenging the tropes of the genre. It’s a compelling mystery with The Kates’ signature humour, and explores themes of truth, misogyny, gender, and race. The series features a large ensemble cast led by Kate Box (Fires, Wentworth), Madeleine Sami (The Breaker Upperers), Nina Oyama ...

Chloe (2022) Mam Tor Productions, Amazon Studios BBC One, Prime Video Social Media #Chloe #PrimeVideo Release date Friday, June 24, on Amazon Prime Video #whatonwhatsgood Express Review (by: Jovin Tardif) Chloe is an interesting drama.  I wasn't blown away when I was watching it ... but it was fascinating.

In her spare time, she goes on her phone to keep an eye on social media.  She visits Instagram to essentially compare herself to others.  One of her favourites on Instagram is Chloe.

She decides to create a fake identity and work with Chloe’s friends (who she never met) to find out what happened.   Can Becky live Chl...

Interview with Singer-Songwriter Janel Rae Today on What On What's Good with Jovin Tardif , I am here with Janel Rae .  Janel is a Canadian singer-songwriter from Kelowna, BC. She has been performing and creating music since she was five. Her new single “Sometimes” is available now.  In our #cinqque5tion interview, we discuss making the video for “Sometimes”, her favorite song from your 2022 LP, 'Dinner With Stranger', acting in indie films, her first Poetry book, musical influences, and much more. 1. What was it like making the video for “Sometimes”? Since my latest album Dinner With Stranger, I’ve approached my music videos with the same thoughtfulness and time that I gave the songwriting process. Letting images enter my mind freely and without urgency, building colour palettes patiently, leaning into movies for textures, and trusting my audience more. It all seems to surface right before the sculpting begins. With Sometimes, there came unforeseen challenges that, as t...
