TGIF! This weekend is filled with promising new titles and the arrival of long-awaited sequels. Bridgerton’s sophomore season easily takes the prize as the most anticipated. Even without the presence of the Duke of Hastings (Rege Jean-Page) this season, this Regency drama looks eager to thrill fans all over the world, if its teasers are anything to go by.
FX’s Atlanta is also making a return after its last episode aired four years ago. The Lost City starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, and the live-action adaption of the Halo games are also worthy mentions for what to watch this weekend.
