In Onyx Collective's latest Hulu series, Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh play

the criminal underworld. Guests this season include Chris Elliott,
Guillermo Diaz, and Sofia Black-D'Elia. 10 episodes.
Gah - not my cup of tea.

I'm totally up for this!

also barely been mentioned on Reddit.)

I was Octomom: The Natalie Suleman Story      (movie)        (8 pm,
Lifetime Channel)
"I Was Octomom" stars Kristen Lee Gutoskie (The Handmaid’s Tale, Chicago
Fire) as Natalie Suleman; Caitlin Stryker (A Million Little Things) as
her best friend Beth; and Anita Wittenberg (Cruel Instruction) as her
mother Angela. Told from her perspective, the movie follows Suleman’s
journey starting from her decision to have one more IVF procedure to
complete her then family of six, to becoming a mother of 14, having
survived her life being torn apart by the tabloid media.
Very likely to pass on this. I've seen this kind of thing from Lifetime
before - it's appalling that they've let Suleman be involved in
producing this: if they want to tell the true story, then do that! Don't
serve as propaganda for Suleman!

P.S. Gutoskie used to be so pretty, but she's not looking so hot in this.
The Reluctant Royal       (movie)          (8 pm, Hallmark Channel)
Philly mechanic Johnny is surprised to learn that his long-lost father
is a duke. But the duke isn’t quite what he expected, nor are his
growing feelings for the duke’s advisor Prudence. Starring Andrew Walker
and Emilie de Ravin.
OK, Emilie de Ravin is one of the few people that might be able to get
me to watch a Hallmark romcom. But they should have had her playing a
princess!! ;)

P.S. I notice the GAFfe Channel hasn't put out a new movie in ages - I
guess they're like UPtv (and Ion? - does Ion even do their own movies
anymore?!) now, only putting out new movies during Christmas season.
(end)
"Heretic", an LMN flick... and not much else. :(
