Vega's take
*Currently airing* (premiered Apr 29, 2026). Katie Dippold (Parks & Rec writer) showrunner, Hiro Murai directing. Matthew Rhys as the mayor of a cursed New England island town trying to turn it into the next Martha's Vineyard. Parks-and-Rec-meets-Stephen-King vibe. Strong early reviews (~96% RT, IMDb ~8.1). 10 episodes, weekly drop. 🎯 Schur-lane DNA (Dippold) + smart comedy-horror = likely double bullseye.
