Join Fraser as he reviews Cape Fear, the 2026 Apple TV limited series that takes on the classic Max Cady story with Javier Bardem, Amy Adams and Patrick Wilson leading the cast, and breaks down whether this new take holds up against nearly seventy years of adaptations of the same material.

This episode contains full spoilers.

In this review, Fraser shares why Javier Bardem's double performance as Max Cady left him completely convinced even as the show around him faltered, why the reveal of Nevaeh Valentine as Cady's own daughter was one of the few twists in the season that truly landed, and why the finale's central reveal had him piecing the clues together himself long before the show did it for him.
