1
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,453
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack Team podcast

2
00:00:10,573 --> 00:00:15,053
Speaker 1: from News Talks ATB screen time time.

3
00:00:15,333 --> 00:00:18,093
Speaker 2: Tara Ward joins us this time every week with her

4
00:00:18,413 --> 00:00:21,733
Speaker 2: three recommendations to shows to watch or stream at home.

5
00:00:22,013 --> 00:00:23,773
Speaker 3: You go to Tara Whatever.

6
00:00:24,173 --> 00:00:27,693
Speaker 2: Let's begin with a show on TVNZ Plus starring Succession.

7
00:00:27,733 --> 00:00:30,293
Speaker 2: Sarah Snook tell us about All Her Fault.

8
00:00:31,373 --> 00:00:33,693
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a new American thriller that I've heard

9
00:00:33,733 --> 00:00:36,133
Speaker 3: a lot of people talking about recently. This is All

10
00:00:36,213 --> 00:00:38,373
Speaker 3: Her Fault. It starts, as you say, Sarah Snook from

11
00:00:38,653 --> 00:00:41,253
Speaker 3: Succession and Dakota Fannings. So it has a really great

12
00:00:41,293 --> 00:00:44,293
Speaker 3: cast and it's about the disappearance of a young boy.

13
00:00:44,693 --> 00:00:47,613
Speaker 3: Sarah Snook plays a mother, Marissa, who goes to pick

14
00:00:47,693 --> 00:00:50,013
Speaker 3: up her son from a playdate with a school friend,

15
00:00:50,093 --> 00:00:52,973
Speaker 3: and she has a text from the friend's mother confirming

16
00:00:53,013 --> 00:00:55,813
Speaker 3: their address in the playdate. But when she arrives to

17
00:00:55,853 --> 00:00:58,453
Speaker 3: pick them up, it's the wrong house and the wrong address,

18
00:00:58,653 --> 00:01:00,773
Speaker 3: and the friend who her son was supposed to be

19
00:01:00,773 --> 00:01:03,653
Speaker 3: playing with as on a playdate with another classmate. So

20
00:01:03,693 --> 00:01:07,013
Speaker 3: the question is who is behind this fake place and

21
00:01:07,133 --> 00:01:10,173
Speaker 3: where is Marissa's son? Now? Now I watch this with

22
00:01:10,213 --> 00:01:13,133
Speaker 3: a very tight knot in my stomach because it's playing

23
00:01:13,133 --> 00:01:16,013
Speaker 3: on every parent's worst nightmare, so it's not an easy,

24
00:01:16,093 --> 00:01:18,933
Speaker 3: breezy kind of show to watch. And it has the

25
00:01:19,213 --> 00:01:21,493
Speaker 3: exact setup as a show I talked about a few

26
00:01:21,493 --> 00:01:23,813
Speaker 3: months ago on Disney Plus called The Stolen Girl. So

27
00:01:23,853 --> 00:01:26,693
Speaker 3: if the plot sounds familiar, that's why. But they are

28
00:01:26,773 --> 00:01:30,053
Speaker 3: quite different shows. This is more intriguing. It has more

29
00:01:30,093 --> 00:01:33,053
Speaker 3: deliberate twists and turns to keep you guessing about who

30
00:01:33,093 --> 00:01:36,293
Speaker 3: in Marissa's circle of trust is responsible for taking her son,

31
00:01:36,373 --> 00:01:38,813
Speaker 3: because it has to be someone who's close to home,

32
00:01:39,373 --> 00:01:42,093
Speaker 3: which means everyone she knows, and this show is lying

33
00:01:42,133 --> 00:01:45,173
Speaker 3: about something, So it's a really twisty thriller. It does

34
00:01:45,213 --> 00:01:49,253
Speaker 3: have its over the top melodramatic moments, but Sarah Snuk

35
00:01:49,293 --> 00:01:51,533
Speaker 3: and Dakota Fanning, who play the mums of the boys,

36
00:01:51,573 --> 00:01:54,053
Speaker 3: give such great performances and they sort of keep the

37
00:01:54,093 --> 00:01:56,773
Speaker 3: whole thing together and ground it nice.

38
00:01:56,893 --> 00:01:59,733
Speaker 2: Okay, cool, This sounds great. So All Her Fault is

39
00:01:59,773 --> 00:02:03,613
Speaker 2: on TVNZ Plus on three now The Borderline.

40
00:02:04,373 --> 00:02:07,893
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a gritty, slow bird kind of police

41
00:02:07,973 --> 00:02:12,853
Speaker 3: crime drama about an investigation into illegal drug smuggling are

42
00:02:12,893 --> 00:02:15,893
Speaker 3: going on across the border. Between Canada and the United States,

43
00:02:15,933 --> 00:02:19,253
Speaker 3: and it follows a detective who discovers that his childhood

44
00:02:19,253 --> 00:02:22,453
Speaker 3: best friend is involved in a case of missing drugs

45
00:02:22,493 --> 00:02:24,933
Speaker 3: and the two of them have the secret from their

46
00:02:24,973 --> 00:02:28,213
Speaker 3: past that will always link them together, and so the

47
00:02:28,253 --> 00:02:32,613
Speaker 3: detective is determined to protect his friend and it becomes

48
00:02:32,613 --> 00:02:36,053
Speaker 3: compromised by getting tangled up with the local crime syndicate

49
00:02:36,053 --> 00:02:37,893
Speaker 3: who are also trying to get their hands on the drugs.

50
00:02:38,293 --> 00:02:41,933
Speaker 3: And that syndicate is led by this imposing matriarch who's

51
00:02:41,933 --> 00:02:45,213
Speaker 3: played by Mini Driver. Now, I love that this series

52
00:02:45,253 --> 00:02:47,373
Speaker 3: has a beautiful setting. It's filmed on a river that

53
00:02:47,453 --> 00:02:51,053
Speaker 3: follows the border between Canada and the US in Ontario,

54
00:02:51,133 --> 00:02:53,933
Speaker 3: and there's over one thousand little islands in the river,

55
00:02:54,373 --> 00:02:57,773
Speaker 3: so it's a really evocative setting for a crime drama.

56
00:02:57,853 --> 00:03:00,173
Speaker 3: You know, it's a pretty standard crime mystery with your

57
00:03:00,493 --> 00:03:03,293
Speaker 3: compromise detective and your shady characters. But you know, we

58
00:03:03,333 --> 00:03:06,853
Speaker 3: don't get many Canadian dramas here, and with this setting

59
00:03:06,973 --> 00:03:09,933
Speaker 3: and Mini Driver starring in this as well as a

60
00:03:09,933 --> 00:03:12,253
Speaker 3: bit of a villain, this is definitely worth checking out.

61
00:03:12,453 --> 00:03:15,013
Speaker 2: Great okay, And then finally for us this morning, the

62
00:03:15,213 --> 00:03:18,413
Speaker 2: very literally named one shot with Ed Sheeran.

63
00:03:19,493 --> 00:03:22,853
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a new twist on the music documentary genre.

64
00:03:22,893 --> 00:03:26,573
Speaker 3: This is a one hour music documentary of Ed Shearon

65
00:03:26,693 --> 00:03:30,573
Speaker 3: walking around New York playing songs on his guitar. But

66
00:03:30,613 --> 00:03:32,973
Speaker 3: the thing about the show is that it is one

67
00:03:32,973 --> 00:03:36,133
Speaker 3: continuous take and it's directed by Philip Barantini, who also

68
00:03:36,173 --> 00:03:40,733
Speaker 3: directed the award winning incredible one shot drama Adolescence, so

69
00:03:41,773 --> 00:03:44,013
Speaker 3: a bit of a different vibe. But he is repeating

70
00:03:44,013 --> 00:03:47,213
Speaker 3: that one shot, never cut away, single approach here. And

71
00:03:47,653 --> 00:03:51,213
Speaker 3: it starts with the camera entering a theater where Ed

72
00:03:51,293 --> 00:03:53,493
Speaker 3: Shearon is doing a sound check for a concert that night,

73
00:03:53,973 --> 00:03:57,573
Speaker 3: and then he walks out onto the street and plays

74
00:03:57,573 --> 00:03:59,213
Speaker 3: a song for the next hour. And I came to

75
00:03:59,253 --> 00:04:02,813
Speaker 3: this thinking, great, we'll see lots of spontaneous, unpredictable New

76
00:04:02,893 --> 00:04:06,453
Speaker 3: York moments as he wanders around strumming his guitar. But

77
00:04:06,493 --> 00:04:11,053
Speaker 3: this is a very well organized spontaneity. It is tightly choreographed,

78
00:04:11,053 --> 00:04:13,013
Speaker 3: and I guess it has to be, you know. He

79
00:04:13,053 --> 00:04:15,453
Speaker 3: sings at a proposal, he sings at a birthday party.

80
00:04:15,573 --> 00:04:17,453
Speaker 3: He gets on a tourist bus that just happens to

81
00:04:17,453 --> 00:04:20,213
Speaker 3: be waiting there with seats saved for him. You know

82
00:04:20,253 --> 00:04:22,213
Speaker 3: that kind of thing. But you know Ed is having

83
00:04:22,213 --> 00:04:23,853
Speaker 3: the time of his life. He said that this is

84
00:04:23,893 --> 00:04:26,053
Speaker 3: the best thing he's been evolved with in his career

85
00:04:26,093 --> 00:04:29,133
Speaker 3: in terms of the scale of it. New York looks great.

86
00:04:29,173 --> 00:04:32,053
Speaker 3: It's filmed in the summer, it's filled with sunshine and

87
00:04:32,173 --> 00:04:35,773
Speaker 3: hazy light, and technically is a really impressive watch as well.

88
00:04:36,573 --> 00:04:38,533
Speaker 3: It's a bit of fun the Happy TV and it's

89
00:04:38,573 --> 00:04:40,413
Speaker 3: an ead sharing concert with a twist. So if you

90
00:04:40,453 --> 00:04:43,213
Speaker 3: are an Ed Shairing fan, you will absolutely love this great.

91
00:04:43,293 --> 00:04:45,573
Speaker 2: Okay cool. So that's one shot with ed Share and

92
00:04:45,613 --> 00:04:49,813
Speaker 2: that's on Netflix. The Boardline is the Canadian drama that's

93
00:04:49,853 --> 00:04:54,093
Speaker 2: on three now, and All Her Fault is on TVNZ plus.
