New series premiere every week, other well-known and loved ones return, and the schedule can easily become impossible. In this section, we make five recommendations from which in principle it is impossible to go wrong.

1. “Last Call: Queer New York’s Serial Killer” (HBO Max, Monday)

This four-part documentary series evokes the serial killer case that devastated the New York ‘queer’ community in the early 1990s. but the producer Howard Gertler (“Beauty and pain”, “How to get rid of a plague”) and director Anthony Carona (“Susanne Bartsch: Above”) focuses more on her victims than on the perpetrator, and on activists who demand greater police involvement.


2. ‘Punishment’ (Movie, Tuesday)

The basis for this promising anthology is Ferdinand von Schirachis a German lawyer who has written stories of high humor and literary quality, inspired by cases throughout his career. directors like Oliver Hirschbiegel (‘The Collapse’) opens the collection with ‘The Diver’ or David Wnendt (“He’s Back”), who directed the patricide tale ‘A Radiant Day’.


3. “Closed Circle” (HBO Max, Thursday)

Productive (and often brilliant) Steven Soderbergh Five years after the experimental ‘Mosaic’, he returns to the series as Ed Solomon’s screenwriter. A failed kidnapping intertwines the destinies of characters of different social status and geographic origins in this sweeping dramatic “thriller,” a kind of variation on Kurosawa’s classic “Hell of Hate.” Dennis Quaid repeats after ‘Traffic’ with the director; Claire Danes anyone Timothy Olyphant for the first time in your world


4. “Foundation (Season 2)” (Apple TV+, Friday)

Adapted from the works of Asimov, the second season of this series is finally here, definitely Apple TV+’s most visually and conceptually ambitious series. David S. Goyer (Nolan’s screenwriter in the Batman trilogy) continues to lead the ship in new episodes set 138 years ahead of Gaal (Nolan’s screenplay in the Batman trilogy).Lou Llobell) knows better the girl he doesn’t know he has (Leah Harvey) and Cleons (the handsomest, incarnated) Lee Speed) is threatened by a vengeful queen.


5. “Zorras” (Atresplayer Premium, Sunday)

After ‘Cardo’ or ‘Nacho’, he continues to bet on a healthy provocation with this adaptation of the books by Atresplayer. Noemi Casquet about three friends (in fiction, andrea ros, Mirela Balic And thai fati) is dedicated to the way they explore their sexuality. Together they form El Club de las Zorras, a project of freedom and fraternity to help them overcome their fears or learn to appreciate their bodies. His presence as co-director of Aritz Moreno (“The advantages of traveling by train”) promises a controlled visual dynamism.
