Admittedly, I never got into this. Season 1 tried too hard for me to give Season 2 a whirl, and now Season 3 is upon us. Still boasting a sterling cast, including Harrison Ford, Jason Segel and Jessica Williams, fans will also see cameos from Jeff Daniels and Michael J Fox. The latter might actually tempt me back, as Fox reportedly shares poignant scenes with Ford.<\/p>\n
Marvel\u2019s Wonder Man<\/p>\n
Disney+, streaming now<\/p>\n
Simon Williams (played by Yahya Abdul\u2011Mateen II) is an aspiring Hollywood actor struggling to get his career off the ground.

Prime Video, streaming now<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve ever found yourself contemplating a cast where Aquaman and Drax are half-brothers, then wonder no more! Here, Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista play Jonny and James, half-siblings forced to reunite after their father\u2019s mysterious demise.<\/p>\n
Streaming pick of the week<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Take That<\/p>\n
Take That<\/p>\n
Netflix, streaming now<\/p>\n
Full disclosure: this week\u2019s streaming pick was a toss-up between this three-part documentary and Bridgerton Season 4. I\u2019ll be honest, I\u2019d rather endure the awkwardness of teen Take That being slathered in jelly for the Do What You Like video than sit through another scene of someone sneaking off to take an illicit lover against a tree. And if you think you\u2019ve seen it all already courtesy of Netflix\u2019s 2023 Robbie Williams doc, this is different \u2013 it\u2019s told from Gary, Howard and Mark\u2019s perspective. Robbie doesn\u2019t add new material here, and Jason seems absent too, but what you do get is 35 years of rare, unseen footage, personal material, and fresh interviews (again, from Gary, Howard and Mark) about their time dominating the early 1990s, selling out arenas, scoring a dozen UK number one singles, and shifting over 45 million records globally. It\u2019s being billed as \u201cthe deeply personal and definitive story of Take That\u201d, though whether it truly can be is another story.<\/p>\n

The Big Fake<\/p>\n
The Big Fake<\/p>\n
Netflix, streaming now<\/p>\n
\u201cFalsely inspired by a true story\u201d, this drama catapults us to 1970s Rome, where an aspiring artist gets dragged firmly towards the underbelly of corruption, all thanks to his lust for an illustrious life.<\/p>\n
Finding Her Edge<\/p>\n
Netflix, streaming now<\/p>\n
With the Winter Olympics right around the corner (February 6, mark it in the diary), we\u2019re being treated to a competitive love quadrangle set in the world of skating. Essentially Dawson\u2019s Creek on ice, it\u2019s arguably riddled with schmaltz, but might make you want to watch Blades of Glory.<\/p>\n
