Red's historic four-try half dents Drua on finals eve
A historic four-try first half from winger Lachie Anderson ensured no hiccups for the Queensland Reds against the Fijian Drua in a soggy Super Rugby Pacific finals warm-up. Anderson scored three times inside 10 minutes while the Drua were a man down in the first half, then added another before the main break to set a new mark for the Reds in a 52-5 Saturday win. He's only the third Australian to score four tries in a Super Rugby game, after Joe Roff in 1996 and Drew Mitchell in 2010. Most were handed to Anderson on a platter, especially a neat cross-field kick from clinical flyhalf Tom Lynagh for his fourth. But the haul was just reward for a fine season from the former rugby sevens and Melbourne Rebels recruit. Anderson did his best to keep his starting berth for Friday's sudden death quarterfinal in Christchurch against the Crusaders, a match-up that had already been locked in before the fifth-placed Reds took the field on Saturday. Test centre Josh Flook also scored in his confident return from a long-term hamstring injury, but the red-hot Filipo Daugunu will surely start in the centres or on a wing next week after coming off the bench on Saturday night and scoring a late try. Joe Brial completed the rout with a try on the full-time siren. There were concerns for Wallabies skipper Harry Wilson though, who returned from a fractured arm last week but left the field later in the second half on Saturday seemingly in pain. The Suva-based Drua won four games on home soil, including their clash with the Reds, but weren't able to muster a victory on the road as they finished second-last in their fourth campaign. They had themselves to blame after an encouraging start, with Iosefa Masi yellow carded for up-ending Jock Campbell in the ruck and then Etonia Waqa binned in the second half for taking out Tim Ryan's legs in the air. Haereiti Hetet scored their sole try while hooker Tevita Ikanivere, in his 50th game for the fledgling Drua, was denied from a trick play from the lineout. He charged through two would-be tacklers only to be sent into touch by a flying Lynagh, who again showed defensive grit to go with offensive flourish.

Plot Criminal Justice 4, also titled Criminal Justice - A Family Matter, delves into the complex case involving a renowned doctor Raj Nagpal (Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub). Raj faces accusations of murdering his girlfriend, Roshni Saluja (Asha Negi). Anju Nagpal (Suvreen Chawla), Raj's estranged wife, is also implicated as a co-accused. Lawyer Madhav Mishra (Pankaj Tripathi) takes on Anju's case, knowing very well that defending her husband could risk her freedom. What's different this time is that Madhav Mishra is not just fighting Lekha (Shweta Basu Prasad) but also another very strong prosecutor, more of which you will know when you watch the new season. Through the course of the season, the narrative shifts focus on other characters like Ira who is the daughter of Raj and Anju, Kamala who is the Nagpal family's maid, and Digvijay who is Roshni's ex-fiancé. They find themselves entangled in this complex case of who has murdered Roshni. Who has murdered Roshni? Who wins the court case this time? Madhav or Lekha? Watch Criminal Justice - A Family Matter to find out. What Works for Criminal Justice 4 The premise of Criminal Justice 4 keeps things thrilling and exciting. It hooks viewers with its web of legal as well as personal conflicts. The show's ability to maintain suspense is its biggest strength. Dialogues pack a punch, as has been the case with the dialogues of every season of the show. The dialogues add energy to key scenes, especially in courtroom exchanges. The pacing keeps you engaged, with twists that land effectively. Pankaj Tripathi as Madhav Mishra just cannot take a step wrong. His quirky charm and wit shine through, making every scene he's in, a delight to watch. The complexity of the case he has at hand, helps bring out more layers to his already strong performance. He is well accompanied by Shweta Basu Prasad. The supporting cast, including Suvreen Chawla and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, help keep the intrigue surrounding the murder, alive. The show plays to its strengths, sticking to a formula that fans enjoy. The visuals and the background score don't leave much to complain about. Lastly, the production value is top notch. What Doesn't Work for Criminal Justice 4 While Criminal Justice 4 is enjoyable, it isn't pathbreaking. It doesn't push the envelope or take the bold risks that would differentiate it from the whodunnits, murder mysteries and courtroom dramas that we have been watching. It leans heavily on familiar tropes, avoiding much experimentation. Some moments feel predictable, especially for longtime fans of the series. The fourth season prioritizes convenience over innovation, which might disappoint viewers seeking something fresh. Certain subplots, while engaging, don't always tie neatly into the main story. This can make the narrative feel slightly scattered at times. Still, these issues don't derail the overall experience. The show remains a solid watch for those who have enjoyed the first 3 seasons of the show. Watch the Criminal Justice 4 Trailer Performances in Criminal Justice 4 Pankaj Tripathi essays the role of Madhav Mishra with his signature flair. He is fun and quirky as usual. Suvreen Chawla plays Anju Nagpal with quiet intensity. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub as Raj Nagpal delivers a layered performance and successfully keeps the intrigue alive. Asha Negi as Roshni is convincing and she gives no reason to complain. Shweta Basu Prasad, playing special prosecutor Lekha, holds her own against Pankaj Tripathi's Madhav Mishra. Her conviction pays off. Kalyanee Mulay as Inspector Gauri makes her presence aptly felt in the big ensemble. Mita Vashisht, Barkha Singh and other supporting actors of the show are also good. Final Verdict of Criminal Justice 4 Criminal Justice 4 delivers a compelling legal thriller that fans of the series will enjoy. Not only is its premise exciting, but the dialogues are also first rate, packing a solid punch. Pankaj Tripathi's humour is unchallengable and it is again proven with the 4th season of Criminal Justice. While this season isn't groundbreaking or experimental, it plays to its strengths effectively. Ignoring its lack of innovation, it's a good watch for those who love courtroom dramas with personal stakes. You can now watch Criminal Justice 4, streaming on JioHotstar.

What time does You Season 5 drop on Netflix? Read on for everything to know about watching the final episodes. Gossip Girl's Penn Badgley reprises his role as the charming yet obsessive serial killer, Joe, who is returning to where his story began: New York City. Season 5 picks up three years after Joe and his wife, Kate Galvin (played by Charlotte Ritchie), left London behind for the Big Apple. Now, Kate is the CEO of the Lockwood Corporation, while Joe is enjoying life as part of one of the world's wealthiest families. But for Joe, the past always has a way of catching up to him. In Season 5, his seemingly perfect life is 'threatened by the ghosts of his past and his own dark desires,' according to Netflix's Tudum. Based on how Season 4 ended, at least two familiar faces could return: Marienne, who survived by outwitting Joe with help from Nadia Farran, and Nadia herself, who is in prison after Joe framed her for Edward's murder. Netflix confirmed that Joe's son, Henry Goldberg (Frankie DeMai), from his first wife, Love Quinn, will return in Season 5, and he's now being raised as Kate's son. Badgley told Tudum there will be challenges ahead for Henry, noting that '[Joe] While the past four seasons saw Joe hiding behind various aliases, he's now entirely in the spotlight. Co-showrunner Justin W. Lo told Tudum that one of the most fun aspects of this season is Joe's 'Prince Charming aspect" and that he's "actually famous.' 'All the other seasons, he's been really under the radar,' Lo continued. 'That's how he is able to move from season to season and place to place, because of his anonymity. Now that he is well known in New York, social media is on him. That's something fun for us to explore.' You.
