Mahjong Scenes in Cinema: What They Reveal About Character and Culture

Thursday 8 January 2026, 08:23

1. Bridgerton (Season Four)

The fourth season of Bridgerton continues the Regency era romance anthology format, this time centring on Benedict Bridgerton and a Cinderella style love story with Sophie, a mysterious woman he meets at a masquerade ball. The show retains its lush costumes, ballroom set pieces and gossip-fueled plotting, with Lady Whistledown’s narration framing the social intrigues of London’s high society.  

The season builds on the world and family dynamics established in earlier instalments, but shifts the emotional focus to Benedict’s struggle between hedonistic freedom and genuine commitment. Expect a mix of forbidden meetings, class tension and slow burn longing, all wrapped in the show’s deliberately modern, escapist tone.

2. His & Hers

His & Hers is a twisty Netflix crime thriller series set between Atlanta and the small town of Dahlonega, following two estranged spouses who may be on opposite sides of the same murder case. Anna is a reclusive former TV news anchor whose career derailed after personal trauma; when she hears about a brutal killing in her hometown, she throws herself back into reporting, hoping the story will revive her life and reputation.

The case is officially handled by Detective Jack Harper, Anna’s estranged husband, who grows suspicious of her sudden interest and begins to see her as a potential suspect rather than just a reporter. As the investigation deepens, more bodies, buried secrets, and conflicting accounts emerge, and the story is told through shifting “his” and “hers” perspectives so that the audience is never quite sure who is telling the truth.

3. Finding Her Edge

Finding Her Edge is a coming-of-age drama about a young woman trying to define herself in a high-pressure environment—often framed around competitive ice-skating, performance or another arena where talent alone is not enough. The story tracks her and her sisters as she juggles ambition, family expectations and complicated friendships, while confronting setbacks that force her to toughen up and trust her own instincts.  

The show blends inspirational arcs with teen or young-adult melodrama: rivalries, crushes, loyalty tests and the fear of failing in public. Its appeal lies in seeing a protagonist gradually develop confidence and resilience, making it a natural fit for viewers who enjoy aspirational yet emotionally grounded stories.

4. Skyscraper Live

Skyscraper Live is a gripping Netflix live special event from January 2026 featuring renowned free solo climber Alex Honnold, known from the Oscar-winning documentary Free Solo. In this high-stakes broadcast, Honnold successfully ascended the exterior of Taipei 101—one of the world's tallest skyscrapers at 1,667 feet (508 meters) with 101 stories—in Taiwan without ropes, harnesses, or any safety equipment, completing the feat in 1 hour, 31 minutes, and 34 seconds.

The nearly 2-hour special captured every tense moment in real-time (with a 10-second broadcast delay for safety), including Honnold's relaxed demeanour as he waved to crowds, provided live commentary via microphone, and navigated challenging sections like the building's distinctive "bamboo box" protrusions. Hosted by Elle Duncan with guests like wrestler Seth Rollins, climber Emily Harrington, and YouTuber Mark Rober, it blended the live climb footage with background on Honnold's preparation, family life, and the years of negotiations for building access.

5. Mike Epps: Delusional

Mike Epps: Delusional is a stand-up comedy special featuring the veteran comedian delivering new material to a live audience. As with his other specials, the set typically riffs on everyday absurdities, relationships, ageing, money and the strange behavior he sees in celebrity culture and social media.  

Stylistically, Epps blends storytelling with quick observational jabs, using his animated delivery and loose, conversational tone to make the show feel like a rowdy night out. Fans of his previous work will recognise the mix of bravado and self-deprecation, while newcomers get an accessible, joke-dense hour that doesn’t require prior familiarity with his career.

6. Free Bert

Free Bert is a Netflix scripted comedy series starring stand?up comic Bert Kreischer as a heightened version of himself, a chaotic, loud, proudly unfiltered dad whose life is built around being the ultimate party guy. When his daughters get into an elite private school in ultra-posh Beverly Hills, his wild behaviour instantly clashes with the polished, status-obsessed world of wealthy parents, faculty politics, and strict social rules.

After his antics turn the whole family into outcasts and make his daughter a target for bullying, Bert reluctantly decides to “put on a shirt” and tone himself down, trying to act like a respectable Beverly Hills dad instead of the unfiltered comic he really is. The show follows him stumbling through PTA events, school scandals, and high-society gatherings as he battles the snobby crowd, oversteps constantly, and slowly discovers that the only way to protect his kids and keep his family together is to lean back into his real, messy, brutally honest self.

7. Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials

Agatha Christie’s Seven Dials adapts Christie’s mystery novel into a period whodunnit involving a country house death, secret societies and a tangle of suspects with hidden motives. The plot begins with what looks like a cruel prank gone wrong, then spirals into a larger conspiracy tied to the enigmatic “Seven Dials” group.  

The series blends light social comedy—spoiled aristocrats, flippant party guests—with a more ominous undercurrent as clues pile up and the heroine is drawn deeper into danger. Fans should expect classic Christie ingredients: red herrings, coded messages, overlapping alibis and a final reveal that reframes what seemed like throwaway details.

8. Bridgerton (Season 3)

Season 3 of Bridgerton focuses on the romance between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington, shifting the spotlight to a friends?to?lovers and secret identity storyline. Penelope, long in love with Colin and secretly writing as Lady Whistledown, must balance her hidden power as a scandal sheet author with her desire to be seen and loved for who she is.  

The season explores themes of self-worth, betrayal and forgiveness as Colin reckons with his own blind spots and the harm caused by careless words. As always, the show delivers slow-burn yearning, elaborate balls and gossip-fueled tension, but this time with a more introspective look at how public image collides with private truth.

9. Stranger Things

Stranger Things is a sci-fi horror series set primarily in the 1980s town of Hawkins, Indiana, where a group of kids encounter a telekinetic girl and a parallel dimension known as the Upside Down. The show opens with the disappearance of a boy named Will and unravels a government experiment gone wrong, creepy creatures and psychic warfare.  

It’s as much a character drama as it is a monster story, built around found family, nostalgic pop culture references and the painful process of growing up in the shadow of extraordinary danger. Each season scales up the stakes and mythology, but its core appeal remains the mix of heartfelt friendships, synth-drenched atmosphere and Spielberg-meets-King genre vibes.

The final season finished airing early this year, so clearly people are going back to it from the start!

10. Bridgerton (Season One)

The first season of Bridgerton introduces the Bridgerton family and Regency London’s marriage market through the love story of Daphne Bridgerton and Simon Basset, the brooding Duke of Hastings. They enter a fake courtship to fend off social pressure, only to find real feelings complicating their arrangement amid constant scrutiny from anonymous gossip columnist Lady Whistledown.  

This season sets the template: heightened romance, orchestral covers of pop songs, and a more diverse, intentionally anachronistic take on period drama. It’s particularly focused on desire, reputation and gendered double standards, mixing swoony fantasy with just enough emotional messiness to keep the fairytale edges from feeling too neat.
