XO, Kitty season 3 (Netflix)
Look on it
Can you already believe it’s already Kitty’s (Anna Cathcart) last year at KISS? Clearly, this is not an easy senior year at all…and I would avoid Googling what major plot twist awaits you in the final chapter of the Netflix series before you start watching.
XO, Kitty season 3 will actually be more shocking for fans of the To all the boys I’ve loved before trilogy. Let’s just say it’s Lara Jean (Lana Condor) who we need to watch closely and prepare to be shocked. — Jasmine Valentine, entertainment journalist
The Testament of Ann Lee (Hulu/Disney+)
Look on it
Amanda Seyfried leads the cast of this musical film, now available on Hulu (US), as the title character, who was the founding leader of the Shakers religious sect in the 18th century.
If you’re unfamiliar, Lee’s religious movement focused on communal living, celibacy, gender equality, and simple, functional furniture. Singing and dancing were a big part of their encounters, meaning a musical is the perfect way to depict Lee’s life and the religious beliefs she shared with others. — Lucy Buglas, senior entertainment editor
Your Friends and Neighbors season 2 (Apple TV)
Look on it
Your friends and neighbors Season 2 is out now and, like its forebear, follows Jon Hamm’s co-op as he continues to use his neighbors to fund his lifestyle, after getting away with quite a few terrible things so far. But his luck may be changing because, according to Apple TV, “a surprise newcomer” threatens to reveal his secret, putting him and his family in danger.
If you haven’t seen Hamm’s captivating performance as Coop, you have certainly I saw the clip of him dancing to DJ Kato’s “Turn The Lights Off,” which became an unexpected meme overnight.
Apple dramas once again know how to make a statement, and I can’t wait to see where Season 2 takes us. — kg
Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 (Peacock)
Look on it
Are you ready for Freddy? Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is now streaming on Peacock if you want to catch up with the creepy animatronic bear and his equally creepy friends.
Don’t expect an exact adaptation of the second title in the hit gaming franchise, but you will see some familiar faces, like the Puppet, who plays a big role in the sequel.
Set a year after the first film, we follow Abby Schmidt as she is manipulated by the Puppet, an animatronic from Freddy Fazbear’s original pizzeria who wants revenge on her parents. It’s up to Abby’s brother, Mike, to save her and appease these angry animatronics, if such a thing can be done. — kg
Secrets of the Bees (Disney+)
Look on it
James Cameron really can do anything and, after the resounding success of Avatar: Fire and Ashhe is executive producer of the new National Geographic documentary Secrets of beeswhich is now available on Disney+.
The latest opus in Secrets of series, explorer Bertie Gregory discovers the hidden world of bees, revealing their vital role in pollinating the world’s food and their astonishing intelligence. You could say they’re all *ahem* looking forward to being here. — Joint venture
Pizza Movie (Hulu)
Look on it
Do you want a pizza? With Gaten Matarazzo from Stranger Things fame, this new Hulu movie follows a group of high school students who have to climb two flights of stairs to pick up their pizza delivery.
Seems simple enough… but did I mention they’re taking an experimental drug whose effects can only be countered by said pies? It seems illegal that Matarazzo is old enough to play this kind of role but, at least we’re all having fun. — Joint venture
