My Apple+ subscription is wrapping up this week. I finished Your Friends and Neighbors, which was fun, and Severance, which I didn’t find as enjoyable in the second season. Next up, I think is a little Peacock to finish a couple of NBC and Syfy shows.
- Irish Blood (Aco) Series Premiere, Monday 8/11 – Alicia Silverstone stars and produces this six-part murder mystery where she plays a character learning the truth about a father who abandoned her on her tenth birthday.
- Alien: Earth (Fx/Hulu) Series Premiere, Tuesday 8/12, 8pm – Noah Hawley has had success in bringing film content to series (Fargo), so while I’m not necessarily lining up for kind of horror, I’ll likely check this out.
- Butterfly (Am) Series Premiere, Wednesday 8/13 – A spy-thriller starring and produced by Daniel Dae Kim and based on the graphic novel, Kim plays a former US intelligence officer in South Korea whose past comes back to haunt him.
- The Rainmaker (USA) Series Premiere, Friday 8/15, 10pm – Based on the Grisham novel a fresh out of law school uncovers a conspiracy with his new firm.
- The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox (Hulu) Series Premiere, Wednesday 8/20 – Amanda Knox EPs this so we’ll likely see this (accused of the murder of her roommate) from her POV.
- Hostage (Net) Series Premiere, Thursday 8/21 – The British prime minister’s husband is kidnapped and must make impossible choices alongside the French president.
- Peacemaker (HBO) Season Premiere, Thursday 8/21 – The first season of this was pretty fun, so I’ll be tuning back in, releases weekly.
- Long Story Short (Net) Series Premiere, Friday 8/22 – This adult animated series is from the creator of Bojack Horseman, which I keep meaning to rewatch.
- US Open (ESPN) Play runs 8/24-9/7 – I don’t think I get this, but will want to investigate whether I can catch the finals.
