"Run": a history of destroying the whole life in a few seconds

Currently, Phoebe Waller-Bridge is one of the most recognizable artists in the UK. An actress and creator of TV series such as: "Killing Eve" or "Fleabag" has returned with a new fantastic show.

"Run" landed on HBO GO a few months ago but, as you already know, I like to recommend TV series that have already had their premiere some time ago. To be honest, I think it's better to start watching a TV show a little bit later, after everyone else. We don't have to wait impatiently for every new episode!

I must admit that "Run's" plot is rather unconventional. However, the very beginning of the series is pretty banal. We get to know an average, American housewife. Ruby has a boring life, a regular suburban house, a husband, and two kids. Everything seems to be fine, she doesn't have any problems. But her normal life doesn't bring her any satisfaction.

One day Ruby is already on the verge of a nervous breakdown. And that's exactly the moment when her life changes completely. The woman receives a text message from someone called Billy. The message says "Run". Only "Run", one word, nothing else. But a few minutes later Ruby leaves her own life behind and travels to New York where she meets with Billy, her old flame.

A little later we learn that 17 years ago Billy and Ruby made a pact. If one day one of them sends a message to the other, they will abandon everything and meat each other at Grand Central Station in New York. Then, both of them will travel through America.

The idea seems crazy and impossible and unrealistic. I must say it's hard to create a whole TV series based on that idea. But as we already know, nothing is impossible for Phoebe Waller-Bridge! She has already proved to us that she's not afraid of a challenge.

Domhnall Gleeson and Merritt Wever as Billy and Ruby are an incredible duo. Thanks to them, the history of their crazy escape is so interesting from the very beginning.

Run is an incredible mix of romance, thriller, and black comedy. The series consists of eight half-hour episodes so it's easy to catch up.

How will Ruby's family react to her escape? Will Ruby regret her decision? And the most important thing: why did Billy send a message? Why now?

You can find all the answers while watching "Run". I promise you won't regret it!

All the episodes of "Run" are now available on HBO GO.

Good Behavior - one of the most underrated TV series in recent years

Do you know that feeling, when you watch a TV series, you become interested in it, and then it turns out that the production is not popular enough and is finally canceled? This is what happened to me after watching two seasons of Good Behavior. What a pity! I believe that if the show ever hit Netflix, it would be quite a success. Unfortunately, it never happened, probably for legal reasons... And although the series is considered a failure, I must say that I strongly disagree with this general opinion. What's more, I highly recommend watching Good Behavior to all of you! This is a unique opportunity to watch Lady Mary from Downton Abbey playing a junkie and recidivist speaking with an American accent!

She spent a few years there for stealing and multiple drug offenses. However, she gets out

The Flight Attendant and Kaley Cuoco in a brand-new role

For every fan of The Big Bang Theory, Kaley Cuoco will stay Penny forever. However, time doesn't stand still. New TV series are released every day and every actor dreams of making his mark in film history with more than a role in a sitcom... Cuoco was given an opportunity to change her image - and she took it. That's why we can all watch her playing the main role in a new HBO TV series: The Flight Attendant. Source: en.martincid.com This production is an adaptation of the book of the same title written by Chris Bohjlian. Cuoco plays the main character - Cassandra - an American flight attendant and a reckless alcoholic. Escaping from responsibilities, self-indulgence, and addiction – that's Cassie's whole life. As we can guess, that doesn't help her making good life choices. One day, during a flight to Bangkok, Cassie meets a very handsome guy. Already in Bangkok, she spends a night with him. The next day, she wakes up in his bed in a hotel room... and the handsom

The fourth season of The Crown - a true masterpiece!

There are some TV series that we don't watch but we are all aware of their value. The Crown falls into this category. You don't have to love the British royal family to watch this show. What's more, I think that The Crown is a perfect choice for everyone who is rather skeptical about the idea of monarchy in our modern world. Source: oldaintdead.com The Crown landed on Netflix four years ago. Since then, it became a global phenomenon. The series focuses on the life of Elizabeth II. The first season begins when she becomes the queen of the United Kingdom. The next seasons show us the following decades of her reign. We get to know Elizabeth not only as a queen, but we also become witnesses of her private life. We see how she interacts with her husband, her children, her sister, etc. We admire her dedicated service to her country but we can't ignore her indifference towards her own family feelings. The fourth season of The Crown starts in 1979. Margaret Thatcher wins par
