Carter Reed is a 65-episode vertical series that dropped on May 22, 2026 on ReelShort. The drama series is inspired by the novel series of the same name by Tijan Meyer. I haven’t watched it yet but the male lead is Jared Staub who was also in Jacked Janitor vs Golden Boy which I really enjoyed so this new one is on my list to watch, LOL… Anyway since it is based on a novel, I think the story should be solid as well…

Djinn Under Contract (American Vertical Series)
Djinn Under Contract is a 67-episode vertical series that dropped on May 21, 2026 on ReelShort. This is something different from the ubiquitous plots of so many vertical series as it is a supernatural genre with a genie as the central character. Among all the recycled tropes of vertical series, this is also one of the few that reverses the gender focus being that the male lead is the one that is being treated badly by the female lead. Only one other vertical drama that I’ve watched has this same plotline which is America’s Favorite Ex-Husband from 2025. This new series is nothing groundbreaking as such but a refreshing break from the usual tropes of vertical dramas…
