Don’t know what to watch?
Summer is finally here, and with it comes the change of routine we’ve all been waiting for. Who doesn’t want to be about and about, making the most out of this weather? We definitely do, but we also realise that at times, the return to social life might feel too overwhelming.
If you’re overwhelmed by a night out or are simply craving a night in binge-watching a new show with your closest friends, we’re here to help. Check out our monthly recommendations of shows and movies to watch, and look-out-for, this month.
Elite 4
The fourth season of the Spanish teenage drama has just come out this past Friday, June 18. If you’ve seen the previous 3 seasons you will not want to miss this fourth one, and if you haven’t, don’t worry, this new season can be enjoyed even out of context.
We won’t spoil away too much, but the drama, mystery, and tragedies at Las Encinas continue, but with new students and storylines. Some of our favourite old characters might have left, moving on with their students’ lives elsewhere, but brand new protagonists have joined the cast and we’re not mad about it. From singer Pol Granch to Instagram sensation Manu Rios, the cast has diversified and brought an additional element to the plot.
Although many are complaining about the news season just being centred around promiscuity and good looks, but we believe it’s up to you to judge… Have a look at Elite season 4 and let us know what you think.
Outer Banks
The trailer for one of the most awaited series for 2021 has finally been released… Yes, we’re talking about Outer Banks. The Netflix show that revolves around the life of the so-called Pogues, will be back on July 30. The trailer tells us that story will continue with more adventure than before, the hunt for freedom, money, and love will hasn’t ended yet.
According to the creators and executive producers of the show, Jonas Pate, Josh Pate and Shannon Burke, we can expect this new season to “test” the protagonists to a new extent, live we’ve never seen before. We don’t know much about the new plot, but what is evident is that John B and Sarah will not give up on their story, even if this time it might take place in the Bahamas. All we can do now is wait and hope to see where their story will take us.
Sweet Tooth
A new show to add to your list. The new Netflix series, released at the begging of June, is a fantasy story based on the DC comic series written by Jeff Lemire. The 8 episodes show produced by Jim Mickle, Beth Schwartz, Robert Downey Jr., Susan Downey, Amanda Burrell and Linda Moran, tells the story of the aftermath of the “great collapse”, it takes us into a chaotic world where half-men half-animal creatures are believed to be the root of all problems.
This is the case of Gus ( Christian Convery), a half deer and half child, that after living ten years in the woods becomes friends with Jepperd ( Nonso Anozie) and the two set out on an adventure through what remains of the country in search of answers on their origins, past, and their real home. But as expected, it won’t be an easy journey… They will encounter enemies, unpredictable news, and will have to face the challenges present in the real world.
