New to Hulu August 2024

Hulu's most anticipated returning show is Only Murders in the Building's fourth season, TV Guide reported.

But by no means is it the only show coming back. There's season two of Reasonable Doubt. The legal drama follows successful Los Angeles defense lawyer Jax Stewart (Emayatzy Corinealdi) as she navigates her cases as well as separating from her husband Lewis (McKinley Freeman). A former client, Damon Cooke (Michael Ealy), reappears having recently been released from prison.

While Jax is still on a healing journey after what happened in the first season, one of her best friends admits to her that she killed her husband in self-defense. However, prosecutors are suspicious so Jax calls on defense attorney Corey Cash, played by Morris Chestnut because she's going to need all the help she can get.

Returning with Corinealdi for season two are Freeman, Tim Jo as Daniel, Angela Grovey as Krystal, Thaddeus J. Mixson as Spenser and Aderinsola Olabode as Naima. New additions along with Chestnut are Essence Atkins as Dr. Brandy Michaels, Melissa Ponzio as Lucy Wargo, Vaughn W. Hebron as Adrian Hunter and Kandi Burruss as Eboni Phillips.

Only Murders in Hollywood?

The four-time Emmy-winning Only Murders in the Building will premiere Aug. 27. The series was nominated for 21 Emmys, the third most nods after FX's Shōgun (25) and The Bear (23). The nominations include outstanding casting, lead actors for Steve Martin and Martin Short, lead actress for Selena Gomez, supporting actor for Paul Rudd, supporting actress for Meryl Streep, guest actor for Matthew Broderick, guest actress for recent Academy Award winner Da'Vine Joy Randolph and comedy series.

The show has three first-time Emmy nominees: Gomez (as an actress; her previous nods were as producer), Rudd and Randolph.

The series, created by Martin and John Hoffman, focuses on three strangers played by Martin, Short and Gomez who all share an interest in listening to true crime podcasts. They become friends in the course of investigating suspicious murders at the Arconia, their Upper West Side apartment building. They end up creating a podcast about these cases which they call, Only Murders in the Building.

The fourth season has the podcasting trio pick up where the third season left off after the incident between Charles' (Martin) stunt double and friend Sazz Pataki (Jane Lynch). As the three podcasters wonder whether it was she or Charles who was the intended victim, they end up going to Los Angeles where a Hollywood studio is about to make a movie based on their podcast.

Do you know how to run Baywatch-style?

Aug. 28 is the premiere of the documentary After Baywatch: Moment in the Sun. The four-part doc's logline describes it as “a nostalgic and insightful exploration of ‘Baywatch,' the cultural phenomenon that defined an era, and an unprecedented look into the stars who brought the world's most famous lifeguards to life. Through dozens of new cast interviews and never-before-seen footage, this docuseries unpacks how the show captured the mythology of California’s beach culture, set physical beauty standards for an entire generation, and capitalized on the adage ‘sex sells.'”

The docuseries includes interviews from dozens of former cast members such as Nicole Eggert, Carmen Electra, Billy Warlock, Alexandra Paul, Gregory Alan Williams, David Chokachi, Jeremy Jackson, Traci Bingham, Erika Eleniak, Michael Newman, Michael Berk and Douglas Schwartz. There's one very prominent name missing from that list, star and executive producer David Hasselhoff. However, as the actor has reportedly been interviewed for Baywatch: The Documentary, he might show up here too.

Baywatch ran for 11 seasons from 1989 to 2001. Hasselfhoff also starred in the spinoff Baywatch Nights. There have been three direct-to-video films, 1995's Baywatch the Movie: Forbidden Paradise, 1998's Baywatch: White Thunder at Glacier Bay and 2003's Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding. A movie remake starring Dwayne Johnson in Hasselhoff's role (Mitch Buchanon) and Zac Efron in David Charvet's (Matt Brody) was released in 2017.

The show is most famous for “Baywatch running.” This refers to the numerous scenes, especially in the opening credits, of the cast members running across the beach in slow motion, usually in their trademark red lifeguard suits. This trope is almost exclusively associated with the show and is the scene most referenced in parodies.
