4 • November 17 - 23, 2019 • Brainerd Dispatch By Jessica Gosse TV Media WHAT'S NEW ON NETFLIX: "The Crown" Season 3 On Sunday, Nov. 17, this award- winning historical series that fol- lows the reign of Queen Elizabeth II returns for a third season. While the first two seasons focused on the early years of her reign (1947 to 1963), Season 3 tackles the events of 1964 to 1976 and features an all-new cast. Oscar winner Olivia Colman ("Flea- bag") succeeds Claire Foy ("First Man," 2018) as Queen Elizabeth; Tobias Menzies ("Outlander") joins the cast as Prince Phillip in place of Matt Smith ("Dr. Who"); and Helena Bonham Carter ("Ocean's 8," 2018) takes over for Vanessa Kirby ("Me Before You," 2016) as Princess Mar- garet. Showrunners have confirmed that the new season focuses more on the growing relationship between the Queen and Prime Minister Harold Wilson (Jason Watkins, "Trollied") as the turmoil between her and Prince Phillip settles, and it includes many significant moments in history, such as the moon landing. Dive deeper into the Royal Family's world of politics and drama when Season 3 of "The Crown" premieres this week. "Nailed It! Holiday!" Season 2 Have you ever tried very hard to make a nice meal or dessert, only to have it fail horribly and have your kitchen look like a tornado hit it? Most of us have, and "Nailed It! Holiday!" is a cooking show that will make you feel better about every kitchen failure you've ever experienced. Season 2 premieres Friday, Nov. 22. This series comes at the cooking competition genre from the opposite direction of most — amateur bakers try to recre- ate professional holiday desserts in an effort to win $10,000, but in this show, contestants are chosen not for their skill but for their lack thereof. In each episode, hosts Nicole Byer and Jacques Torres are joined by celebrity guest judges, including Maya Ru- dolph ("Bridesmaids," 2011), Jason Mantzoukas ("The Good Place") and Jillian Bell ("Workaholics"). Watch as these bakers destroy their kitchens and make drooping dreidels and sad Santas. "Dolly Parton's Heartstrings" Living legend Dolly Parton joins Netf- lix in this new eight-part musical an- thology series premiering Friday, Nov. 22 on the streamer. Each episode of the series focuses on a different Dolly Parton song and the story surround- ing it, including "These Old Bones," "Cracker Jack," "Down From Dover" and, of course, "Jolene." With Parton on board as an executive producer as well as actress and singer/songwriter, you can be sure the series will do her iconic songs justice. Many big names are set to star alongside Parton, including Julianne Hough ("Rock of Ages," 2012), Ginnifer Goodwin ("Once Upon A Time") and Gerald McRaney ("House of Cards"). WHAT'S NEW ON HULU: "Booksmart" (2019) On Monday, Nov. 18, this coming- of-age high school comedy joins the Hulu lineup. As the end of senior year and graduation draw near, best friends Amy (Kaitlyn Dever, "Last Man Standing") and Molly (Beanie Feldstein, "Neighbors 2: Sorority Ris- ing," 2016) realize that their constant studying and avoiding parties may have been a waste as even the party kids got into prestigious colleges. The girls agree to let go and be spontane- ous for one night by going to their classmate's end-of-year yacht party. They quickly get in over their heads, though, and the night gets even more strange when they are picked up by their principal (Jason Sudeikis, "Sat- urday Night Live") via a ride-sharing program. Watch as two teenage girls fit four years worth of high school partying into one crazy night. "Holly Hobbie" Season 2 Many people will recognize the name Holly Hobbie. She's an iconic cartoon character, doll and greeting card personality, and was featured on the biggest toy of the 1970s: the Holly Hobbie Bake Oven. Last year, Holly Hobbie traded in her signature bon- net for a guitar when Hulu launched their modernized live-action series, which portrays Holly (Ruby Jay, "The Unicorn") as a 13-year-old singer- songwriter. The series follows Holly as she tries to make a difference in her small town, support her friends and navigate teenage life, all while using real life as inspiration for her music. Season 2 premieres Friday, Nov. 22, and Holly's world is getting more complicated with school, boys and bullies — music is her only outlet. Watch as Holly deals with the first criticisms of her music when the sec- ond season premieres this week. WHAT'S NEW ON AMAZON PRIME: "The Feed" Living in a society where people con- stantly share every detail of their life, whether it be on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, makes Amazon Prime's newest original series "The Feed" seem very plausible. Premiering this Friday, Nov. 22, the series depicts a not-so-distant future where, thanks to the creation of a special brain implant called The Feed, humans are connected by instant recording and can share every human experience. Guy Burnet ("Hand of God") and Nina Toussaint-White ("EastEnders") star as married couple Tom and Kate Hatfield, who try their best to avoid technology despite the fact that Tom's father, Lawrence (David Thew- lis, "Wonder Woman," 2017), is the creator of The Feed and his mother, Meredith (Michelle Fairley, "Game of Thrones"), is the CEO and handles its daily operation. When a possible virus within The Feed suddenly starts causing its users to exhibit horribly violent tendencies, Tom must pro- tect not only his wife and newborn daughter, but all of humanity, from his father's invention. Jeremy Neu- mark Jones ("The Last Post"), Jing Lusi ("Crazy Rich Asians," 2018) and Osy Ikhile ("The Legend of Tarzan," 2016) also star. Olivia Colman stars in "The Crown" Guy Burnet and Jeremy Neumark Jones in a scene from "The Feed" $5 OFF $25 Purchase Expires Nov 29, 2019.
