Review

PONIES

A buddy cop dramedy with wanna-be CIA agents against the KGB in the late 70s? Sign me up. It was fun and a full of twists, but the two stars are what really sell this show. Emilia Clarke might be the most expressive actress out there and Haley Lu Richardson plays the Heavy extremely well. Their dynamic is perfect. Bring on a second season!
