TV litter pick: The Last of Us – Feb 6: I know I recommended this last month, but I don't care. It's so good, I'm going again. Give this dystopian road trip all of your attention, even if you're a stick-in-the-mud, purist fan of the game.
Movie litter pick: Emily the Criminal – Feb 26: Emily (Aubrey Plaza) is saddled with student debt and locked out of the job market due to a minor criminal record. Desperate for income, she takes a shady gig as a "dummy shopper," buying goods with stolen credit cards.

TV litter pick: Wu-Tang: American Saga: S3 – Feb 15: An American Saga isn't a glossy tale - despite history being re-packaged and re-shaped for TV - but it's also not a "warts and all" affair. It does what all biopics do. It cherry-picks for the best possible narrative while ignoring the rest, taking liberties where appropriate.
Movie litter pick: John Wick 3 – Feb 11: Chock full of inventive set-pieces and brutal kills, while also providing new facets to the intricate underworld lore fans of the franchise have come to enjoy, John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum pushes its title character to his breaking point.
