This week, we’re breaking down two major stories in film & TV that reflect the ever-changing media landscape.

First, we analyze Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby Franke, Disney+’s chilling docuseries that dissects the dark ethics of family vlogging and the dangers of social media parenting. As film professionals, we explore how documentary storytelling is shifting towards digital scandals and what that means for the industry.

Then, we dive into Last One Laughing, Amazon Prime’s quietly dominant comedy series that has taken over 28 countries—but why isn’t anyone talking about it? We break down its production model, format innovation, and why it’s a blueprint for cost-effective global content.

Finally, we return to The Rotten Tomatoes Game, ranking the greatest British comedies of all time and discussing why Hollywood refuses to take comedy seriously when it comes to awards season.
