Pretoria - August 2020

Netflix ... for a great night in
The crime comedy-drama Good Girls (S3) revolves around three
mothers who upend their seemingly cosy lives and descend
into the world of crime to pay their family bills. Now they return
to face the consequences of last season’s high jinks. The show is
dark, a little outlandish – and in its best episodes, it’s gripping!
The world as we know it has ended in The Rain (S3)... When
a virus carried by rainfall wipes out almost all humans in
Scandinavia, Danish siblings Simone and Rasmus take shelter in
a bunker. Six years later, they emerge to search for their father, a
scientist who left them in the bunker but never returned. Along
the way they join a group of young survivors and together set
out on a danger-filled quest through an abandoned Scandinavia,
searching for any sign of life.
After an excruciatingly long wait, the fantasy comedy drama
Lucifer is back for season five. Throughout the series, Lucifer and
his allies take on a wide array of supernatural threats – but they’ll
be facing perhaps their most unique challenge yet this season.
Good news Lucifans … the show has officially been renewed for
season six!
In Secret Origins, the scene is set in Madrid 2019 where a
serial killer is spreading chaos. Anonymous people with no
apparent connection are being murdered while imitating the
first appearances of the most famous superheroes. It is up to
two detectives to put together the pieces of a game with which
they’re completely unfamiliar.
