Netflix’s new comedy drama, Don’t Say Good Luck, is a heartwarming tearjerker as well as a love letter to the transformative power of being a theater kid. Directed by Julia Hart, Don’t Say Good Luck follows Sophie (Sunny Sandler), a theater kid who finally gets the lead role in her school’s production of Waitress - just as she finds out her mom Elizabeth (Melanie Lynskey) is dying of cancer. While the singing is by no means spectacular and Sandler’s acting is stiff, the film is grounded in the moving performance of Lynskey as a mother who wants nothing more than for her daughter to achieve her dreams, even if she can’t be there to see them.

A K-9 police dog goes undercover to stop an illegal animal smuggling ring and learns a valuable lesson along the way.

The film's storylines read as allegories for the queer experience and that's a source of solace for LGBTQIA+ fans!

If you want to feel the rush, you have to take the risk.

Movies also have the ability to make the audience think deeper about an issue that plagues society. "Blindspotting" does that without shying away from the intense reality of police brutality and racial discrimination.

The makings of a great midseason filler episode that would connect in many different directions. This is a police drama filler with a guest director.
