Star Trek: Discovery
The Season 4 arc comes to an intense and emotional climax as the Discovery crew tries to communicate with the mysterious Ten-C alien speciesâwhich seems to be empathetic, though uncomprehending of Federation waysâwhile the countdown nears for the aliensâ DMA device to unknowingly unleash destruction on the home planets of Earth and NiâVar. Discoveryâs Capt. Burnham (Sonequa Martin-Green) faces tough decisions about her rogue lover, Book (David Ajala), while back home, Tilly (Mary Wiseman) and Admiral Vance (Oded Fehr) orchestrate a perilous evacuation.

Star Trek: Picard
Elsewhere in Trek world, Picard (Patrick Stewart) makes good on his pledge that âto save the future⊠we have to repair the past.â So once they use the Borg Queen (Annie Wersching) to extricate themselves from the bizarro world of a totalitarian alt-reality, itâs off to 2024 Los Angeles, where the search is on for a âwatcherâ while everyone takes pains not to disrupt the timeline. âEverything we do here has consequences,â Picard needlessly points out. Donât be surprised if all does not go smoothly in the 21st century. And Q (John de Lancie) is watching.

Raised by Wolves
In the Season 2 finale of one of TVâs most haunting and visually powerful sci-fi dramas, android Mother (Amanda Collin) takes the veilâa sensory filter worn by the revived âGrandmotherâ robotâso she can confront her serpent offspring âNo. 7â in a climactic showdown that could decide the fate of humanity. It gets weirder from there.

Welcome to Flatch
Small-town life is spoofed in a mockumentary based on a British format, relocated to rural Flatch, Ohio (pop. 1,526), where the living is easy if you keep your expectations low. Creator Jenny Bicks and director/executive producer Paul Feig score droll but obvious points in the jokey set-up, introducing best friend/cousins Kelly (Chelsea Holmes) and Shrub (Sam Straley) as âwalking disappointmentsâ who are destined to fail once again at Flatchâs annual Scarecrow Festival. (One of several title cards informs us of the âcorrelation between small-town traditions and community happiness.â) Among the newer Flatch residents: well-meaning pastor âFather Joeâ (Seann William Scott) and his ex, Cheryl (Youâre the Worstâs Aya Cash), whoâs taken over the local newspaper. If you like what you see, the first seven episodes are available for binge-watching on Hulu, Fox Now and On Demand. But as they say in Flatch, whatâs the rush?

Minx
Flatchâs Paul Feig is also among the executive producers of this cheeky period comedy, with a similar vibe to GLOW and Boogie Nights in its generous attitude toward societal outliers. Set in the early 1970s, Minx (created by Ellen Rapoport) stars Ophelia Lovibond as idealistic feminist Joyce, a crusader from suburban Pasadena whose dreams of launching a Matriarchy Awakens manifesto hits a wall of indifference until she crosses paths with unruly porn-mag merchant Doug Renetti (New Girlâs Jake Johnson). And thus Minx is born in a Van Nuys studio, a magazine wrapping its message of female equality in the titillating guise of male erotica. As Joyce rationalizes: âThe ability to look makes a woman feel powerful.â Itâs also a good excuse for a classic pay-cable revel in unabashed frontal nudity. Also new to HBO Max: DMZ, a four-part limited series based on a DC graphic novel, starring Rosario Dawson in a dystopian thriller as a woman seeking her lost son in a demilitarized zone within Manhattan, whose streets are meaner than ever.

Michaela Watkins is chilling as the in-house counsel intimidating employees under their NDAs.
