Finding Vivian Maier
Vivian Maier was a street photographer who documented street life in Chicago and New York City throughout the middle of the 20th century. She's won critical acclaim and international attention in mainstream media. But what's most remarkable is that her work was only discovered after she passed away. It wasn't until her photographs went viral on the Internet that she came to public attention: Unearthed after the possessions she kept in a storage space went to auction, the photographs landed on photo blogging site Flickr. Finding Vivian Maier tells the peculiar story — at least what's been pieced together — of the photographer and her photographs.

It's the year 2113. The Sibyl System now measures each citizen's probability that they will commit crimes through the Psycho-Pass.

Akane Tsuenmori is an Inspector in Unit One who must hunt down a criminal mastermind who somehow has eluded the authorities. The first season is now available, all 22 episodes. Another season is coming soon.

Twin Peaks Season 1
It's hard to believe that it's been more than 20 years since Twin Peaks made its network debut, but it's true. FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper (Kyle Maclachlan) investigates the murder of homecoming queen Laura Palmer in the sleepy town of Twin Peaks, only to find out that this place isn't what it seems. David Lynch's (Eraserhead, Dune) attempt at a TV series was an absolute phenomenon, but it ended after two seasons on a cliffhanger, later revisited in a movie, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me. Now you can experience it again (or for the first time).

The Outsorcerer's Apprentice
"Once upon a time there was a story. It was about magic and the magical land, and the right here and the very much now. It was about wizards and dragons, profit and loss ratios, doughnuts, manpower coefficients, crystal portals, a handsome prince, a poor but feisty peasant girl, Vivaldi, a unicorn, a LoganBerry XPXX3000, coffee stirrers, goblins and high-speed broadband." That's the foreword to The Outsourcerer's Apprentice, an imaginative new work of fantasy from Tom Holt.
