Blockbuster – November 3

Series, Comedy

From Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Superstore writers comes another charming workplace sitcom—this time, set in a beloved but nearly extinct movie store. Randall Park stars as Timmy Yoon, a movie lover and long-time Blockbuster employee. After learning he is operating the last Blockbuster Video in America, Timmy and his employees fight to stay relevant. The only way to succeed is to remind their community that they provide something big corporations can’t: human connection. Brooklyn Nine-Nine’s Melissa Fumero stars as Eliza, Timmy’s love interest, and Olga Merediz (who shone in her roles as a grandmother in In The Heights and Encanto) plays the store’s blunt mother figure.

Enola Holmes 2 – November 4

Film, Adventure, Mystery, Drama

The much-anticipated Enola Holmes sequel arrives on Netflix on November 4, picking up with Enola (Millie Bobby Brown) opening her own detective agency, following in the footsteps of her famous brother, Sherlock (Henry Cavill). As the harsh realities of adulthood (and being a female detective) set in, Enola nearly gives up—until a new case involving a missing girl throws her into a puzzling and dangerous new world. The search leads her to London’s sinister factories and colourful music halls, to the highest echelons of society and 221B Baker Street itself. If you enjoyed Enola’s adventures the first time around, this looks to be an even more intriguing mystery for her to unravel.

The Crown – November 9

Series, Drama

The Crown’s long-awaited 5th season is dropping soon, just 2 months after the death of Queen Elizabeth. But in the show’s timeline, we’ll pick up as Queen Elizabeth II (Imelda Staunton) approaches the 40th anniversary of her accession and new challenges are on the horizon. Prince Charles (Dominic West) pressures his mother to allow him to divorce Diana (Elizabeth Debicki), presenting a constitutional crisis of the monarchy. Rumours circulate as husband and wife are seen to live increasingly separate lives and, as media scrutiny intensifies, Diana decides to take control of her own narrative, breaking with family protocol to publish a book that undermines public support for Charles and exposes the cracks in the House of Windsor. The official trailer arrived a few weeks ago, and yes, it was worth the hype.

Firefly Lane Season 2 (Part 1) – December 2

Series, Romance, Drama

The emotional and endearing series Firefly Lane is returning on December 2 with the first nine episodes of Season 2. We’re all wondering what led to the end of Kate and Tully’s 30-year friendship, and this season is promising us the answer to that and plenty of other pivotal moments from their lives. Tully faces a lawsuit and a quest to find her estranged father, while Kate grapples with the painful aftermath of Johnny’s ill-fated trip to Iraq. The show flashes back to the 80s, as Tully’s career rises and we see Kate and Johnny first fall in love — causing some newsroom drama.

We love how Firefly Lane shows the enduring power of strong friendship, and we’re excited to see this next chapter of Kate and Tully’s story unfold.
