"Paradise" Is Leaving The Internet Questioning Everything, And Now, I Think Life Is A Simulation
Warning: This article contains spoilers from Paradise. In an utopian and simulated society, Sterling K. Brown takes the lead as Xavier Collins — head agent in the President's Secret Service. But after the sudden murder of his boss (James Marsden), he's left questioning the architects of this 'ideal' community and everything around him. The combination of Sterling K Brown's badass aura, Julianne Nicholson's puppeteering character, Sinatra — and the flicks between time — make the show a puzzle that desperately needs solving. And I will say, James Marsden as President Cal Bradford is the most serious I've ever seen him. He's still silly, despite his character being a certified racist. But without a hyperrealistic, animated rabbit or Sonic by his side, Marsden as President is one of his more solemn performances. Everyone's a suspect, the president's dead, national secrets have fallen into someone else's hands and there's something unsettling going on with the President's therapist. So naturally, the internet is lapping it up like it's Jacob Elordi's bathwater in Saltburn, coming up with theories and questions that now have me wondering what's coming next. the way paradise leaves me gagged every episode like wow what just happened and what is going to happen next !!!! #paradisehulu — kudus pr manager 🇬🇭 (@kimkimdaya) February 20, 2025 Twitter: @kimkimdaya 1. Someone's playing the "ignorance is bliss" game, while the world goes down around them. Me every episode trying to figure out if Cal daddy is just pretending to not know what's going on #ParadiseHulu — ♡Danimals❤ (@Dani_19_93) February 19, 2025 Twitter: @Dani_19_93 #ParadiseHulu really keeps me guessing because the way I thought Cal's father couldn't tell Black people apart but it turns he really did see Presley at the house that night and she has the tablet under her bed. — Still I Rise (@dreamandthehope) February 13, 2025 Twitter: @dreamandthehope 2. For some reason, moments before his death, the President's security detail was doing everything BUT making sure he was safe and secure. So everybody just playing Wii instead of guarding the president #ParadiseHulu — KUWK ❤️ (@Snackaveli_) February 18, 2025 Twitter: @Snackaveli_ 3. The master puppeteer, Sinatra pulled a trump card on Xavier Collins, saying his believed-to-be-dead wife is actually alive. But people aren't buying it. Sinatra is a liar. She has no idea where that woman is at #ParadiseHulu — TellyMonster 😈💍🔺🐘 (@TellyBaby22) February 19, 2025 Twitter: @TellyBaby22 First of all, the soundtrack on this show is immaculate. Second, I knew Sinatra would pull the "your wife is alive card" on X. Now i gotta wait another week. 😩 #paradise • #paradiseonhulu • #paradisehulu — 🇨🇩 Zande✊🏾 (@KongoZande) February 18, 2025 Twitter: @KongoZande 4. Apparently, the "end of the world" scenario that kicked off the entire chain of events was planned by a multi-billionaire control freak. I need to know what the hell happened! My theory is crazy ass sinatra planned the whole world ending disaster through grief and insanity to build a world she can control. Anyway, I NEED TO KNOW NOW! #ParadiseHulu — sel (@selbel007) February 12, 2025 Twitter: @selbel007 5. And finally, speaking of Xavier's wife, there's a hot little suspicion that she's involved in the plot for world domination. Wouldn't that be a trip? And when we find out Xavier's wife is helping Sinatra pull the strings THEN WHAT #ParadiseHulu — megan (@ciaomegan_) February 20, 2025 Twitter: @ciaomegan_ Paradise has just been renewed for Season 2.

Viewers are 'locked in' after just one episode of new thriller series with all-star cast
TV watchers are loving Disney+'s new thriller series, Paradise, with viewers "hooked" after just one episode. With an all-star cast led by Sterling K. Brown, the eight-part series is set in an idyllic neighbourhood inhabited by some of the world's most prominent individuals. It follows widower and Secret Service agent Xavier Collins (Brown), who is entrusted with the life of the recently re-elected president, Cal Bradford (James Marsden). But when the president is found dead in his home and a boxful of national security secrets missing, Collins becomes a prime suspect and a high-stakes investigation unfolds. Taking to social media, viewers were gripped by the opening episode and shared their praise for the twisty conspiracy thriller. One person penned: "Just watched the first episode of #ParadiseHulu and OMG I'm SEATED," while another added: "We started #ParadiseHulu and we are locked in." A third fan wrote: "THE WAY I FELL OFF MY COUCH AT THE END OF THE FIRST EPISODE #ParadiseHulu. TELEVISION IS SOOO BACK," while another added: "Okaaaay #ParadiseHulu that was one hell of a series opener." Many viewers found themselves binging the first three available episodes, with one fan writing: "Do yourself a favour and watch Paradise on Hulu. Absolutely freaking amazing. I wish I could binge more eps right now! This will be the next big hit!" For those yet to tune into the show, here's the full synopsis: "Paradise is set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world's most prominent individuals. But this tranquillity explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds." The logline for episode one gives further insight into the plot. It reads: "It's just another day in Paradise until Agent Xavier Collins (Brown) discovers one of the world's most powerful individuals has been viciously murdered. "Xavier analyses the crime scene while recalling his complex relationship with the victim."

The remaining episodes will be released weekly on Tuesdays.
