new and noteworthy tv: 6/7-6/20

Kevin Can F**K Himself

When Younger moved to Paramount+ it also started airing on Hulu but I’ve yet to check in on this final season which wraps June 10, overall it was a fun series. Flack (Am), Evil (Para+), and Tuca and Bertie (Ad Sw) have all been picked up but on different networks giving them another go; I liked each enough to check out but not going to pay more at this point to check out my fave of those Evil. Also looking forward to the return of Dave (Fxx, 6/16) which shifted over time from a crass show to one with some nuance and Lupin to see how he gets out of the latest and what else he gets into.
