Apple's own press release says season five of Slow Horses earned nine Primetime Emmy Awards. Read to the end of the sentence and they are nominations. It won none of them.

September is the month American television stops idling. Fourteen scripted premieres, the Emmys on the 14th, one series ending for good, and a spy show that arrives two days after it may or may not have won Outstanding Drama. Here is what is worth your evening, with dates, episode counts and release patterns.

Showmakers take notes.

Each film, a unique masterpiece in its own right, combines dramatic intensity with remarkable storytelling.

Maybe these movies aren't talked about much anymore, but that doesn't mean they are any less great because of it.

Mark Strong is one of those actors who's been in everything but still doesn't get the recognition he deserves.
