Well a long weekend and a discount code got me onboard with Hulu. And of course rather than immediately dropping into Handmaid’s Tale I did a little Mindy Project and Casual. Sometimes you just have to balance out the drama of Fortitude, Patriot, Downton Abbey, Big Love, Rectify, and even Sabrina with a little comedy. I’m about to wrap a couple of those up so should have a little room over the next holiday for a couple more good ones plus catching The Little Drummer Girl which I’ve yet to dive into. And this week a few more series with very little word which mostly seems to mean for streaming that they’re global imports that we’re not paying much attention to.
- 1983 (Net) Series Premiere, Friday – This alt history thriller centers around secret conspiracies in Poland.
- Baby (Net) Series Premiere, Friday – Two teens start living a double life in Rome.
- Memories of the Alhambra (Net) Series Premiere, Saturday – Looking for the creator of an augmented reality game.
- Nightflyers (Syfy) Series Premiere, Sunday, 10pm – An adaptation of George R.R. Martin’s novella about a spacecraft looking for alien life.
Returning streaming: F is For Family (Net, Friday)
