How this season is filed

Filed by Tessa Quinn · Spoiler-Free (Mostly)

Andrew Scott in high-contrast monochrome, slipping into a rich man's Italian life one lie at a time. Steven Zaillian's Highsmith adaptation is streaming as a craft flex: every staircase, every suitcase, every ugly pause. Watch for literary crime that treats close-ups like traps, and for evil that looks suspiciously like good taste.

TV Flash files Season 1 of Ripley (2024) on Netflix as the only listed season — 8 listed hours, 2024-04-04 from “I A HARD MAN TO FIND” (S01E01) to “VIII NARCISSUS” (S01E08). Titles, dates, and synopses on file — no invented recaps.
