As summer heats up and we all hide in our houses and dream of fall–or sure, maybe go outside and enjoy nature–the time is ripe to enjoy the shade, A.C., and an extremely good lineup of streaming TV headed our way this August. As with any form of entertainment, the quality of what’s headed to screens ebbs and flows, but August is an exceedingly exciting month with a whole bunch of massive shows headed to our screens. So grab a cold drink, lower that thermostat, and enjoy our picks from this month’s offerings.
She-Ra and the Princesses of Power Season 3 (Netflix)
The Righteous Gemstones (HBO)
Mission Impossible – Fallout (Amazon/Hulu)
The Favorite (HBO)
The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance (Netflix)
Maybe the show we’re most excited for this year, Louis Letterier’s Dark Crystal prequel series looks like an absolute puppet dreamworld. With a massive cast, huge scale, and potential to expand the lore of the beloved franchise, it’s going to be a long wait ’til it hits on August 30th!
