Streaming this week: Space Force, Ramy and Hannah Gadsby: Douglas
One of the new streaming shows I’ve been looking forward to most, Netflix’s Space Force with Steve Carell, debuts this week.

Australian comedian Hannah Gadsby, probably best known for her stunning, Peabody Award-winning standup show Nanette, is back, bringing her latest comedy standup show Douglas to Netflix (fwiw, Douglas is the name of one of her dogs).

Ramy, Season Two (Hulu, May 29th)
Egyptian-American Ramy Hassan returns in this heartfelt comedy about a man striving to better understand himself and his faith. The second season includes Oscar-winner Mahershala Ali as a sheikh trying to give the title character the guidance he craves. Ramy Youssef stars.

Steve Carell, John Malkovich, Lisa Kudrow, Jane Lynch, and the late Fred Willard star.
