What Game of Thrones Last year, numerous publications (including this one) announced it was one of the last water shows – which everyone seems to have watched live and discussed afterwards on social media. But that doesn't mean that popular shows don't break with the zeitgeist and start appearing. Just look Tiger King.

(It has a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes and you are the fifth highest rated TV show In fact, if you're in the mood for something to dream of and escape from, this is not the time to be looked at right now, but to examine the ways in which powerful government forces make decisions after a brief glance at people's costs seems urgent now. Polygon called it “probably one of the finest examples of cosmic horgic ever made.”

Dickinson
Apple TV Plus
Young Emily Dickinson writes poetry, breaks up with her best friend, Sue, and joins Death (played by Rapper Wiz Khalifa) in the Apple TV Plus & # 39; quirky YA comedy.

Emmy-winning Emmy Award-winning Emmy for her one-stage play is dirty, dirty, sad and has equal halls. The stars show Wall-Bridge as an unnamed antagonist (listed on the credits as simply "Fleabag"), a better-looking antihero than Walter White, Tony Soprano, and Don Draper combined. While the first season focused on the improper performance of Fleabag on the death of his best friend, Season 2 premiered on the summer of Hash Priest with an appreciation for Andrew Scott's character. After throwing up the momentum, you can hire a recording of the stage production, with proceeds going to organizations dedicated to supporting victims of the COVID-19 epidemic.

Yes, Baby Yoda has been released from the bag, so unless you've blocked Twitter six months ago, you may already be able to crack at the end of the first Mandalorian episode.

If you have not yet found happiness Schitt & # 39; s Creek, stop what you are doing and start biting now. The Canadian sitcom from the father's team with his son Dan and Eugene Levy is surprisingly kind and gentle – albeit a little humorous – with a show about a very wealthy family (inspired by reality shows Keeping Up With The Kardashians) who have lost all their money after being defrauded by their business manager. They moved to the small town of Schitt & # 39; s Creek where the patriarch Johnny Rose bought it as a Gag gift for his son, David. Johnny and David are played by Eugene and Dan Levy, respectively, and are joined by Annie Murphy as David's sister Alexis, and Catherine O & # 39; Hara's famous mother, former soap opera Moira Rose.
Periods 1-5 of Schitt & # 39; s Creek are broadcast to Netflix
Season 6 of Schitt & # 39; s Creek is broadcast on Pop TV (available through similar live TV resources Fubo TV and Live on Live TV)
The sequence
Peter Kramer / HBO
We here at Polygon really love it The sequence. The HBO nomination drama about a family of wealthy, lifeless capitalists, like Roys like Moydo, is like a train wreck you can't look away from. Each episode has a WTF moment that leaves your jaws down, whether it's patriarch Logan Roy (Brian Cox) playing "Boar on the Floor" Wambsgans (Matthew Macfadyen) expresses his concern by putting water bottles in his own bag, Cousin Greg (Nicholas Braun) . Season 2 ends with a bombshell revelation, but we'll have to wait a little longer to see how things turn out for Roys, since production in Season 3 delayed.
The sequence is distributed to HBO (also available as a Hulu either Amazon Add)
Guards
Mark Hill / HBO
Missing and They left showrunner Damon Lindelof had a lot of responsibility to contend with during the creation Guards HBO's TV show: strangers fans, the tragic legacy of 2009, the despicable Alan Moore known for his contempt for his work. However, Lindelof was able to put out a thoughtful, provocative and completely absurd show set in the Watchmen universe. With killer performances from Regina King, Tim Blake Nelson, Jeremy Irons, and Jean Smart, the first (and probably only) year of the show is worth watching, even if you're a fan of the source material.
