VERONICA MARS (TVNZ)
TVNZ has given viewers a powerful gift in the form of Veronica Mars returning to our screens this year. All three seasons of the iconic teen drama from the early 2000s are now available to binge on TVNZ On Demand and boy, is it a good time! It follows the quick-witted, take-no-nonsense super sleuth Veronica Mars through everything from high school dramas to murder mysteries. And with messages of diversity, acceptance, family and friendship, plus an incredible female lead in Kristen Bell, it still holds up impressively well more than a decade later.
ONCE UPON A TIME (Neon)
Once Upon a Time takes some of your favourite characters from popular kids' stories and Disney classics, and dumps them into the modern world. Snow White, Prince Charming, Little Red Riding Hood, The Little Mermaid and more feature, as they attempt to piece together their story book memories. Along the way you get some emotional tales of redemption, vengeance, self-discovery, family and, of course, true love. Oh, and some wonderfully OTT villains, too. It's super cheesy and a bit of light fun, perfect for a lazy weekend. All seven seasons are landing on Neon this Saturday.
