Washington Post: “It’s fun when slight little shows — especially comedies — overperform by improving on a silly premise. In Apple TV’s goofy space dystopia, “Murderbot,” Alexander Skarsgard plays a crabby, semi-obsolete “SecUnit” (or “private security construct” — sort of a computer with human tissue) that started the series by quietly rebelling against its overlords. Specifically, it hacked its “governor module” to watch a bunch of movies and TV, and it must now hide its newfound sentience (and fandom) from the incompetent humans it’s forced to protect. The series was one of the year’s weirder and more successful television experiments. Created by Weitz brothers Paul and Chris (who also made “American Pie” and “About a Boy”) the show, an adaptation of the first book of Martha Wells’s “The Murderbot Diaries,” makes extraordinary — and original, and very funny — use of Skarsgard’s almost inhumanly handsome and distant screen presence.”

Excited to see Tashan Mehta’s MAD SISTERS OF ESI named as a Washington Post Best Book of 2025! “A poetic, metaphysical epic, “Mad Sisters” feels like it’s in conversation with other recent books about people in surreal, liminal spaces questioning what everything means — and it’s my absolute favorite book of the year.”
