This week on TV Gold, Andrew Mercado and James Manning discuss four new series: Top End Bub (8 episodes, Prime), I Fought the Law (4 episodes, Stan), Morning Wars (10 episodes, AppleTV+), and Aka Charlie Sheen (2 episodes, AppleTV+)

• Top End Bub (8 episodes, Prime)
Miranda Tapsell has co-created an impressive sitcom spun off from her 2019 movie Top End Wedding.

• I Fought the Law (4 episodes, Stan)
A memorable performance (again) from Sheridan Smith, this time as Ann Ming in the inspiring real-life story of a mother who, driven by unimaginable grief, finds strength to challenge the centuries-old British Double Jeopardy Law to see her daughter’s murderer finally brought to justice after a 15 year battle.

• Morning Wars (10 episodes, AppleTV+)
Following last season's merger between the UBA and NBN networks, there are more unhinged power grabs for the TV business, plus a plane crash unfolding live on air, unbelievable romantic liaisons, an unlikely story involving false imprisonment, a Russian oligarch and a night at the opera…and that’s just some of the plot lines that the cast led by Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston take viewers on.

• Aka Charlie Sheen (2 episodes, AppleTV+)
With seven years of sobriety behind him, Sheen opens up like never before, tackling the rumours, scandals, and self-inflicted chaos that have always threatened to cut him down. The doco features revealing interviews with those who know Sheen best, from family and friends to Hollywood insiders — and even his former drug dealer! Interview guests include Denise Richards, Heidi Fleiss, Jon Cryer, Sean Penn, Ramon Estevez, Brooke Mueller, Chris Tucker and Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre.
