Netflix is full to the brim with world-class documentaries. We know this. And, diving deeper, no subgenre is as packed as true crime.

In some ways Netflix is ​​to blame for the all-consuming popularity of true crime. Early Netflix documentaries like Making a Murderer, alongside viral podcasts like Serial, have in almost every single streaming platform stacking the deck with dozens of copycat shows.

Netflix – undoubtedly – ​​has the deepest (and best) true crime back catalog and that has continued to this day. Established, legacy hits like The Keepers and The Staircase are now buoyed by recent classics like Keep Sweet and The Girl in the Picture.

But there’s one true crime series on Netflix I rarely hear people discussed, which is strange. Because for my money, it’s the best of the lot.

Who Killed Little Gregory is a 2019 five part series focused on the case of 4-year-old Grégory Villemin, who was found murdered in the Vologne river in France in 1984.

What follows is a sordid tale that spans a ludicrous three decades. With family feuds, multiple twists and turns, the ominous presence of an anonymous crank caller known as “The Raven,” Who Killed Little Gregory is a fascinating story that continually surprises in terms of its scope. A significant part of the show is dedicated to solving the mystery of the murder itself but, like the very best documentaries, it examines broader, challenging issues unearthed by this brutal, horrifying crime.

Earlier this year, I misplaced two 14-year-old girls. We were at an anime convention when two of the three teens in our group went, with permission, to buy food. They didn’t come back. The Seattle Convention Center was packed with tens of thousands of people, most dressed like characters from Demon Slayer.

It was a frantic hour-plus before they returned, apologetically (phone had no data; convention center had no Wi-Fi; lost track of time) after I already had played every hellish scenario in my mind. Were they abducted? Hit by a car? Forgot where we said to meet? Slain by a demon?

So it was with the memory of that lingering panic that I settled in to watch Old Enough on Netflix. It’s a long-running Japanese documentary series where television cameras follow kids as young as 2 while their parents send them off on their first ever errand away from home.

The program is called Hajimete no Otsukai (My First Errand) in Japan, where it’s been running for decades. A few of the tots we see on the Netflix episodes can probably drive by now.

Some of the errands are pretty simple — in one, a 2-year-old toddled a few

Getting trapped in the quantum realm turns into a family affair in the new trailer for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumia, the third Ant-Man installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The trailer, out Monday, shows what happens when Ant-Man Scott Lang’s daughter Cassie (Kathryn Newton) uses a device to send a signal into the quantum realm. Before former government agent Janet van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer) can stop it, they all get sucked in, along with Lang (Paul Rudd), Lang’s love interest Hope van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) and Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), who invented the Ant-Man suit.

It turns out, there’s a whole secret universe there, and perhaps Janet hasn’t told the crew everything about her time in the realm. We also get a glimpse of Kang the Conquerorthe Marvel Cinematic Universe’s next supervillain.

The quantum realm is a dimension in the multiverse. Lang got stuck in the realm after the events of Avengers: Infinity War. In Avengers: Endgame, Lang described it as its own microscopic universe. The Avengers took advantage of the realm’s unpredictable rules of time to reverse Thanos’ snap.

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumia hits theaters February 17, 2023.

Back when Wordle popularity was at its absolute peaksocial media would be set alight if that day’s Wordle was a doozy. But what actually was the toughest world of 2022?

This’s precisely what gaming site im-a-puzzle attempted to figure out, trawling through data stored in a Twitter API called WordleStats. How does it work? Well, remember when absolutely everyone was posting their Wordle attempts on Twitter? WordleStats has been collecting that data, and calculating difficulty based on the relative success and failure of each puzzle.

So what were the hardest words? According to the numbers they are…

1. PARER
2. FOYER
3. CATCH
4. WATCH
5. MUMMY
6. CATER
7. COYLY
8. TRITE
9. FOUND
10. TACIT

And to be honest? Some of this checks out. A number of them — like FOYER or TACIT — feel like words I’d accidentally spell incorrectly. Others like PARER barely feel like words that actually exist. All of them, outside maybe CATER or FOUND, feel like words that might be difficult to solve using traditional Wordle techniques (loading up on vowels early, for example.)

But we absolutely have to take this study with the provenrbial grain of salt. Especially given that it was based on users posting on Twitter. It’s very possible more people failed on less obvious words that we didn’t post on Twitter. Or that people were more like to post successes if the word was deemed difficult.
