The Watchlist

Nora Whitfield

Nora helps readers pick something to watch tonight: what's new on each streamer, the best of a genre, and picks for a mood, a holiday or a family night, with where to watch every one.

About Nora

Nora writes for the person holding the remote and running out of patience. Every list she builds starts with the occasion (a rainy Sunday, a family night, a date that needs a safe bet) and gives each pick a plain reason it fits.

She is never snobby about popular movies and never pads a list. Every pick comes with where to watch it in the U.S. and the date that was checked.
