Dead to Me season 3 (Netflix)

The tragicomic tale of two unlikely best friends is coming to an end. Creator Liz Feldman never planned for Dead to Me to run more than three or four seasons, so this isn’t really one of those cases where Netflix pulled the plug too soon (I’m still mad about GLOW). Making this the final installment is also timely, since star Christina Applegate has openly discussed her struggles with filming with MS.  Applegate and Linda Cardellini are as fine a form as ever as, respectively, cynical widow Jen and her more cheerful partner-in-crime Judy. The murders they’ve committed and covered up still threaten to come out into the open. Their lives are unraveling, and it’s all compounded by a health crisis.  Streaming now on Netflix (opens in new tab)

Disenchanted (Disney Plus)

The success of Hocus Pocus 2 is a clear indication that there’s massive interest in sequels to beloved Disney films of yore. The 2007 musical fantasy Enchanted was a delightful send-up of the typical Disney princess tale. After Giselle (Amy Adams) is rudely pushed out of her animated realm into real-world New York City, she gets her happily-ever-after with a previously-pessimistic lawyer, Robert (Dempsey).  Fifteen years later, Giselle, Robert and his daughter Morgan move from Manhattan to the suburbs. Giselle finds their new life isn’t as shiny and happy as she dreamed, mostly due to snubbing by local queen bee Malvina (Maya). So, Giselle calls upon the magic of Andalasia for help, but it accidentally turns the entire town into a fairy tale.  Streaming now on Disney Plus (opens in new tab)

Spirited (Apple TV Plus)

But this time, he selects the wrong one. Social media spin doctor Clint (Reynolds) flips the table on Present, pushing him to reexamine his own past, present and future.   Streaming now on Apple TV Plus (opens in new tab)

But Ralphie discovers that recreating the idyllic Christmas of his childhood is no easy feat.  Streaming now on HBO Max (opens in new tab)

The People We Hate at the Wedding (Prime Video)

Based on Am I the A**hole posts, wedding drama appears to be the No. 1 cause of family dysfunction and estrangement — and thiscomedy is basically a manifestation of an r/AITA post. Donna (Allison Janney) wants her adult kids Alice (Kristen Bell) and Paul (Ben Platt) to support their English half-sister Eloise (Cynthia Addai-Robinson) on her big day. They make the trip across the pond, but their own issues threaten to overshadow the family reunion.
