After a relatively quiet Season 1 buzz and successful Season 2 (thanks to Netflix), YOU Season 3 (2021, developed by Sera Gamble and Greg Berlanti, based on the books by author Caroline Kepnes) returns almost two years later with Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) and Love Quinn (Victoria Pedretti) settling down into a fictional suburban hellhole known as Madre Linda. They now have a 6-month old baby named Henry Forty Quinn-Goldberg and are trying to keep their marriage alive, while fitting into a new community.

He’s All That is basically a makeover show involving influencers and TikTok.

This post for He’s All That contains spoilers.

He’s All That (2021, directed by Mark Waters) is a remake of 1999’s She’s All That, though I’m pretty sure that the former just gender swapped the main characters and borrowed the makeover plot point. Aside from that, the 2021 movie has been Gen Z-fied with social media and influencers.

Sex/Life (2021, created by Stacy Rukeyser) is a television show that I never intended to watch, but a Just Jared Instagram post had piqued my interest of this Netflix series because apparently Adam Demos, who stars as one of the leading men Brad, went full frontal in one of the episodes.

I’ve never thought much about the game of chess, or how it could be turned into a TV series, until The Queen’s Gambit (2020, created by Scott Frank and Allan Scott) popped up on my radar. A Netflix limited series, this seven-episode show stars Anya Taylor-Joy as Elizabeth (Beth) Harmon, an enthused chess player who finds her way to becoming the world champion.
