Missing You: A Cocktail of Intrigue and Confusion in Five Episodes, Signed by a Crime Expert
The series 'Me haces falta', based on Harlan Coben's work, is critiqued for its convoluted plot and lack of narrative coherence. Despite an intriguing premise, the series fails to deliver a satisfying conclusion, with characters making illogical decisions and a narrative that becomes increasingly absurd. The performances are limited by a weak script, and while the series may attract viewers with its trailer, it ultimately disappoints with its execution. Available on Netflix, the series is described as a mix of intrigue and confusion, with a narrative that struggles to maintain tension and coherence.

Toll-free trips through Downtown and Midtown tunnels to begin within a month
Eligible drivers in Portsmouth, Norfolk, Newport News, Hampton, and Franklin can soon benefit from toll-free trips through the Downtown and Midtown tunnels, thanks to a new state-funded relief program. Spearheaded by State Sen. Louise Lucas, the initiative aims to alleviate financial burdens on residents earning less than $50,000 annually, offering up to 14 free trips per week. The program requires an E-ZPass and in-person application at designated centers. This effort is part of a broader push to address longstanding criticisms of toll rate increases by Elizabeth River Crossings, a private company managing the tunnels. The relief is part of a $101 million allocation in the state's budget, with Lucas advocating for further measures to eliminate tolls entirely.
