Hi, {{first_name | friend}}!
Fall is coming fast, and while we technically have a few more weeks of summer, Labor Day always feels like the unofficial end. Luckily, there are plenty of new premieres dropping this month to cure that summertime sadness.
Speaking of endings, I am still side-eyeing Hulu for canceling Mindy Kaling's Friends-esque series last week after just one season. I'm holding out hope another streamer swoops it up (Netflix, I'm looking at you), but in the meantime, I'm reminding myself there's something to be said for a good one-season wonder.
Happy streaming,
Meredith
