The Game (Season 1) — January 8
One of my favorite genres of all time is cozy British mysteries, and The Game seems to capture this precise niche to a tee. The upcoming series follows a detective who refuses to let go of a case he never quite cracked. What happens when he expects his new neighbor might be the killer he never found? And is he being taunted along the way in this classic cat-and-mouse game? Or is it all in his head? Find out by tuning into the exciting new drama, set to be released on January 8th.

Tracey Ullman’s Show (Season 1-3) — January 21
Tracey Ullman is a total legend in the UK comedy scene, as well as overseas, so I’m thrilled to announce that the comedian will be unleashing all three seasons of Tracey Ullman’s Show on BritBox. We get to follow the seasoned pro as she interacts with some of the most fascinating people in the United Kingdom. She’ll make the most unexpected friendships along the way, and I, for one, can’t wait to see what happens next.
