Paradise is a mystery series starring Emmy winner Sterling K. Brown about a secret service agent whose president is murdered and it’s so good, it got renewed for a second season halfway into its first. So I’m just going to quote myself from March writing about Paradise just after it was renewed: “We’re in an age where a show with a Black lead gets written off by online trolls as ‘too woke’ or full of ‘DEI hires’ and anything that makes us feel our feelings gets denigrated as ‘silly.’ But the absurdity and sincerity of Paradise is its strength. And its hero? A Black man, the descendent of a Tuskegee airman and Black pilot, who took a bullet for the president, may feel a bit too nationalistic for the current moment, but it also harkens back to a time when that guy was the hero everyone welcomed, and the one TV wanted. Right now, Sterling K. Brown as Xavier Collins is the hero we need.” – Kathleen Newman-Bremang, Senior Content Director, Entertainment
