This week’s television is a choose-your-IP-adventure of sorts: The ’90s X-Men return, complete with nostalgic animation vibes X Men ’97. If you’re looking for an alternate timeline version of a classic video game (and a slightly silly one at that), then the finale of is for you gloriole Season 2.
And then there’s 3 body problem, Netflix’s big-budget adaptation of the blockbuster sci-fi novel of the same name (and its sequels). As our Editor-in-Chief Matt Patches put it in his review: 3 body problem “Feels epic while exploring the messiness of human instinct.”
There are actually no wrong choices among these; It’s all TV, it’s all a good time. And it’s not even the limit: there’s still ongoing TV and a few more new options. Find all of this week’s notable TV premieres and finales here.
