Making The Cut
Amazon Prime Video

If there's a Project Runway-sized void in your heart since Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn left the franchise, this new show will fill it. The proud parents of fashion design, Klum and Gunn, are back and are on the hunt for the next global fashion brand. Designers from all over the world must impress the all-star judging panel that includes Nicole Richie and Naomi Campbell. There's a $1 million prize on the line and the chance to debut the winning fashion collection on Amazon. Streaming from Friday.

Marc Maron: End Times Fun
Netflix

Talk about comic timing. Marc Maron named and filmed this special before the coronavirus got its sickly grip on the world.
This means the angst-ridden Maron makes no mention at all of covid-19 and instead worries about pre-coronavirus problems like worrying about not being woke enough, surviving in a world without cellphones and why we should all be taking turmeric for our health even though he's entirely convinced it does nothing.
It's a nice, almost nostalgic, break to sit back and remember a time a month or so ago when all we had to fear was fear itself and not a highly contagious virus.

Oprah's Book Club
Apple TV +

During this time of self-isolation, what better way to pass the time than reading a book and joining Oprah for a discussion with the author. Winfrey hand-picks each book and invites viewers to take a deep dive into the story behind the pages. American Dirt, the subject of the third episode, is a novel that sparked as much controversy as sales. Join Oprah as she gets to the heart of the matter with author Jeanine Cummins. Streaming now.

Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw
Neon

Looking for some mindless escapism to take your mind off, well, everything? Then buckle up and hit play on this high-octane, low brain power, spin-off from the Fast & Furious franchise. This flick, which just zoomed on to Neon, is basically a turbo-charged buddy flick as unlikely allies Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson and Jason "Action-Man" Statham team up to stop a cyber-genetically enhanced villain from taking over the world. It sounds exactly like the sort of big dumb distraction we need right now.
