A beloved sitcom, a twisty sci-fi thriller, and more on this week's column
TV remains as prolific as ever. Over the past year, numerous shows have aired, providing something of interest for all sorts of viewers. This week, there are a couple of fun new shows coming out, from comedies to sci-fi, and also some older titles that have been made available on popular streamers.
FX's Adults is back for a second season, continuing the story of a group of twenty-something roommates in Queens as they deal with pesky adult life. On the other side of the spectrum, there’s Dark Matter, a sci-fi show based on Blake Crouch's novel, following a man thrust into an alternate reality by an evil version of himself. He spends the series trying to make his way back home to his wife and son.
Adults has become a favorite among Gen-Z viewers, with its first season introducing a group of friends living together in one of their childhood homes. Much of the comedy comes from the group’s first encounters with adult matters, like navigating the healthcare system in the US or trying to develop a stable career. Episodes air weekly on Thursdays.
Dark Matter season 2 premiers this Friday. Based on Blake Crouch’s novel, the second season continues the story of physicist Jason Dessen, who was abducted and taken to an alternate reality by an evil version of himself who wanted to take over his life. Crouch is also the series showrunner, with this season continuing the story beyond the novel.
