With summer already leaving the halfway point of the year behind, 2022 has already left
a good number of memorable television fictions
, either in the form of premieres or new seasons of consolidated productions that have managed to maintain their quality, if not exceed it.
This is a small review of the various gems that streaming
platforms have given us
.
The Dropout (Disney+)
The gurus and the big scams are in the crosshairs of producers and screenwriters, eager to find the perfect scandal based on real events to hook an audience.
In this case,
Elizabeth Meriwether
addresses the rise and fall of
Elizabeth Holmes
, founder of Theranos, the innovative company destined to change medical science that was exposed as a multi-million dollar fraud.
Amanda Seyfried
is the protagonist and shines with her own light thanks to a script that analyzes her actions without idealizing her or losing sight of the gender perspective and the inconsistencies of capitalism.

Separation (Apple TV+)
Adam Scott
lands the long-sought (and deserved) leading role after the end of
Parks & Recreation
, where he played the remembered
Ben Wyat
.
in this series by
Dan Erickson
(with several episodes produced and directed by
Ben Stiller
) that mixes suspense thriller and science fiction based on a stimulating premise that asks what would happen if it were possible to surgically separate the mind into two people: one who dedicated to enjoying the real world and one that takes care only of working hours.
The cast is top notch (
Christopher Walken
,
Patricia Arquette
,
John Turturro)
and the second season is already confirmed by Apple.
Stranger Things 4 (Netflix)
The example is in
Master of Muppets
.
Without any intention of making
spoilers
, the Metallica song performed by Eddie Munson (
Joseph Quinn
) in the final stretch of the most popular Nefflix series (in which he calls "the most metallic concert in history") clearly defines the resounding success of its fourth season.
With
Stephen King
and
A Nightmare on Elm Street
(including the participation of
Robert
Englund
, the actor who best embodied Freddy Krueger), the
Duffer brothers
have given new life to the adventures of Eleven (
Millie Bobby Brown
), Dustin (
Gaten Matarazzo
) , Will (
Noah Schnapp
) and company.
And in Metallica delighted, of course.
They have even taken the opportunity to record a video clip with the theme, published in 1986 (those from San Francisco did not release one until
One
in 1989).

The Peacemaker (HBO Max)
Stranger Things
is not alone when it comes to succeeding visually and musically.
Because if there is a series in this 2022 with a catchy intro, it is that of
The Peacemaker
.
James Gunn
, who already demonstrated his expertise when it comes to blending music and images in the
Awesome Mix Vol. 1 & 2
of
The Guardians of the Galaxy,
repeats the formula with Wig Wam's
Do Ya Wanna Taste It
, a melody that anticipates what will be develops behind her:
John Cena
getting his repulsive Christopher Smith from
The Suicide Squad
to win the viewer's heart, surrounded by humor, violence and secondary level as agent Emilia Harcourt (
Jennifer Holland
), the hilarious unbalanced Adran Chase aka The Watcher (
Fredie Stroma
) and the hateful Auggie Smith (
Robert Patrick)
father of the protagonist.
Without forgetting Aguili, of course, the best superheroic
sidekick
in decades.

Winning Time: The Lakers Dynasty (HBO Max)
Doctor of physical chemistry, real estate speculator, bald man who refuses to accept it, addicted to prostitutes
Jerry Buss
bought the Los Angeles Lakers in 1979 and changed the NBA forever.
With his shirts open to the navel, he conquered players and fans alike, forging a dynasty that continues to this day and was built on the magic of Magic Johnson, considered the best point guard in history.
John C. Reilly
and
Quincy Isaiah
enjoy playing both and the viewer with them.
Jason Clarke, Adrien Body, Hadley Robinson
and
Jason Segel
join the game, with
Adam McKay
, one of the hottest directors for movies like
Don't Look Up,
on production lines and directing the pilot episode.
