Hulu

The Act, Series Premiere: Sometimes the craziest stories are based on real-life. Hulu’s new anthology true crime series is focused on telling startling, stranger-than-fiction true stories, and Season 1 is a doozy. Starring Patricia Arquette, Joey King, and Chloë Sevigny, the first installment is based on Gypsy Rose Blanchard, who is currently serving a second-degree murder sentence in prison. In the series, Gypsy is trying to escape the toxic relationship she has with her overprotective mother, Dee Dee. Her quest for independence opens a Pandora’s box of secrets, one that ultimately leads to murder. The Act will begin streaming on March 20.

When twins Tal and Janelle relocate from Ohio, they find themselves thrust into a world where every move is a test. How are deep are they willing to dig to realize their dreams and seize their moment? Based on the movie franchise, Season 2 will feature more of the cutthroat soapy teen dance drama when it returns to YouTube Premium on March 20.

Cold Feet: The New Years, Season 3 US Premiere: This comedy-drama follows the lives of a group of individuals, Adam and Rachael, Pete and Jenny, David and Karen, as they’re desperate to find true love — or at least to keep their relationships on track. The award-winning series stars James Nesbitt (The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey), Hermione Norris (Luther), Robert Bathurst (Absolutely Anything), Fay Ripley (Monday Monday) and John Thomson (Inkheart).

Renewals

American Gods, Season 3: Following the Season 2 premiere, Starz has renewed the series adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s novel for a third season, complete with a new showrunner, Charles “Chic” Eglee. The second season saw a lot of developmental issues behind-the-scenes, resulting in showrunner exits and unexpected delays. The network is excited to move forward with the new season, though, saying: “We know that the show will continue to deliver on the vision and promise laid out in the novel,” with the help of Chic’s vision and Gaiman’s contributions. American Gods Season 2 is currently streaming on Starz with new episodes airing every Sunday night.
