The biggies
Willow (Disney+, Wednesday, 3:01 a.m.)
Jonathan Kasdan’s Willow is a direct sequel to Ron Howard’s 1988 film of the same name. The fantasy drama follows six unlikely teammates who embark on a quest to dangerous places to fight inner (and presumably outer) demons and save the world. You know, it’s the usual stuff heroes are made of. Warwick Davis reprises his role as dwarf sorcerer Willow Ufgood, and the rest of the ensemble includes Erin Kellyman, Tony Revolori, Ellie Bamber, Christian Slater, Amar Chadha-Patel, and Ruby Cruz. The A.V. Club will recap episodes of the show weekly.
Gossip Girl (HBO Max, Thursday, 3:01 a.m.)
The notorious and wealthy Upper East Side teens are back in Gossip Girl’s second season. Joshua Safran extends the world of 2007’s Gossip Girl as a new generation of Constance Ballard students have to face the titular anonymous social media account. Except this time, Gossip Girl’s identity isn’t a secret but is revealed in the premiere itself. In season two, Michelle Trachtenberg will reprise her role as Georgina Sparks from the original. Look out for The A.V. Club’s review this week.
Sort Of (HBO Max, Thursday, 3:01 a.m.)
In a post-Schitt’s Creek and Kim’s Convenience world, Sort Of deserves to be your next favorite Canadian sitcom. Created by Bilal Baig and Fab Filipo, the groundbreaking series follows non-binary Pakistani immigrant Sabi Mehboob (Baig), who struggles to balance family life, their parents’ expectations, and multiple professions, such as being a bartender at an LGBTQ+ bookshop and a caregiver to the young children of a professional couple. Season one is available to stream on HBO Max, and season two will consist of six episodes.
Hidden gems

While the residents search for answers, the authorities struggle to find the perpetrators, believing these acts could be tied to ritualistic killings.
Irreverent (Peacock, Wednesday, 3:01 a.m.)
