Treason

When the head of MI6 (Ciarán Hinds) is nearly assassinated in this British spy thriller, young agent Adam Lawrence (Charlie Cox) gets promoted to the top job.

White Noise

Oscar-nominated filmmaker Noah Baumbach wrote and directed this take on Don DeLillo’s infamously hard-to-adapt novel of the same name. The absurdist dramedy is set in the ‘80s and centres on a family whose lives are upended when a toxic cloud settles over their town. Greta Gerwig, Adam Driver, Don Cheadle and Jodie Turner-Smith star. Now streaming

Kaleidoscope

On the surface, this Giancarlo Esposito–fronted miniseries is about a group of thieves attempting to pull off the biggest robbery in history. But this isn’t your average thriller: episodes can be watched in any order, which theoretically personalizes the experience leading up to the finale. Ultimately, the tale comes together regardless of how you watch it, but your perspective on the plot and characters will depend on the order you choose. Now streaming

Madoff: The Monster of Wall Street

This four-part documentary tracks the rise and fall of financier Bernie Madoff. The series explains how he orchestrated a devastating multibillion-dollar international Ponzi scheme, interrogates how blind trust in the financial system enabled his crimes, and gives voice to victims and whistleblowers.

Ginny & Georgia (Season 2)

It’s been nearly two years since the first season of this GTA-filmed mother-daughter hit dramedy dropped, and Ginny (Antonia Gentry) found out that her mom, Georgia (Brianne Howey), is a murderer on the run. Now, as they try to settle down, fit into a small Massachusetts town and build a normal life, the past still haunts them. January 5
