The movies and television shows below are the best of what’s coming to Hulu this month—according to me. Because I’m an expert at watching things.
Hulu’s prestige comedy-crime program Only Murders in the Building is returning for a fourth season with a “the gang goes to Hollywood” plot. There’s a rebooted version of Dance Moms premiering with all new moms and all new dances, and if you want to chill out and check out Lollapalooza, Hulu is streaming the whole concert.
Only Murders in the Building, season 4
How many murders can happen near the main characters of Only Murders in the Building before someone figures out that they’re serial killers? (Not really.) This series stars comedy greats Martin Short and Steve Martin and comedy good Selena Gomez as Charles, Oliver, and Mabel, podcast hosts and amateur detectives. Season 4 finds the trio going to Hollywood where a movie about their podcast is in production.
Starts streaming August 27.
Dance Moms: A New Era, season 1
I dislike children, stage parents, and overbearing coaches, so I’m not really in the target demographic for Dance Moms: A New Era, but people loved the original, so I’m not going to argue. The reboot introduces hard-charging dance coach Glo Hampton who wants to take her students to the prestigious dance school Studio Bleu. To do it, she’ll have to manage precocious children, scheming moms, and constant drama. Sounds great(?).
Starts streaming August 7.
Lollapalooza Live Stream
If you can’t make it Chicago for Lollapalooza this year, Hulu is streaming the festival live from August 1 to August 4. This year, the annual rock extravaganza will feature performances from Chappell Roan, Hozier, Reneé Rapp, SZA, Stray Kids, The Killers, Metro Boomin’, Megan Thee Stallion, and about a thousand other artists and bands spanning any genre and style you could think of.
Starts streaming August 1
Punch-Drunk Love (2002)
As a comedian, Adam Sandler is love-him-or-hate-him, but as a serious actor, he’s undeniably great, especially when paired with director Paul Thomas Anderson. Punch-Drunk Love was Sandler’s first heavy role, and he shocked the world by turning in a nuanced, restrained, heartbreaking performance as Barry Egan, a lonely sad-sack who just barely manages to contain the violence inside him.
Starts streaming August 1.
Suitable Flesh (2023)
Director Joe Lynch delivers a Lovecraftian horror flick that’s also sexy—not a common combination. Heather Graham turns in a fearless performance as Elizabeth Derby, a psychiatrist whose devotion to reason is about to be abolished by the supernatural, specifically, a patient who complains that his father is trying to steal his body. It all hurtles toward a delightedly ooey and gooey finale that Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator) fans will love.
Starts streaming August 3.
Eddie Pepitone: For the Masses (2020)
Don’t worry if you’ve never heard of stand-up comic Eddie Pepitone. He’s not a huge name or anything, but his abrasive, original, old-hipster style of standup comedy and his completely nihilistic outlook is a breath of fresh air. “You’re not gonna hear a lot of shit about dating, and how fun everything is. It’s not fun. We’re in end times,” Pepitone proclaims, which really sets the tone for this comedy show.
Starts streaming August 9.
Killer Lies: Chasing a True-Crime Con Man
This National Geographic-produced series tells the twisted true tale of self-proclaimed serial killer expert, Stéphane Bourgoin. Bourgoin built an international reputation and a large fanbase for his true crime books that describe his tragic life and his encounters with evil. But his fans became suspicious about some of the details in his stories, and started pulling the threads, revealing a complex web of lies. Director Ben Selkow goes beyond the story of a writer who lies all the time to examine the larger context of true crime culture.
Starts streaming August 29.
Last week’s picks
Futurama, season 12
Matt Groening and David X. Cohen’s iconic sci-fi cartoon Futurama is back this month for a 12th season, with 10 new episodes coming. Fry, Bender, Leela, and everyone else will be back to discover the secret of Bender’s ancestors, learn the story behind coffee, and make sardonic jokes about the present even though it takes place in the year 3,000 or so. If you’ve never seen Futurama, you’ll have nearly all month to catch up on the previous 12 seasons—they’re also available on Hulu.
Starts streaming July 29.
Sharkfest
You know why they don’t call it “Shark Week” anymore? Because it’s expanded to an entire damn month. Hulu will feature a ton of streamable specials in July concerning Mankind’s underwater enemies, including Attack of the Red Sea Sharks, Baby Sharks in the City, Shark Attack 360, Shark Beach with Anthony Mackie, Shark vs. Ross Edgley, Sharks Gone Viral, Supersized Sharks, and When Will We Finally Kill all these Goddamn Sharks? (I made that last one up).

Sasha Reid and the Midnight Order
If you’re a true crime fan, do not miss Sasha Reid and the Midnight Order. Reid is a psychologist with a singular obsession: catching killers. So she recruited a cadre of women that share her passion from various disciplines and backgrounds, dubbed them “The Midnight Order,” and started tracking down criminals. The Midnight Order works outside the system and uses cutting-edge data skills and forensic knowledge to heat up cold cases—like Batman, but not fake. This series takes viewers inside their most intriguing investigations and introduces us to the women who have made Justice their profession.
Starts streaming July 10.

In 1978, psychiatric nurse Ann Burgess received a call that would change her life. It was the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit, and they wanted her help digging into the minds of serial killers.

The hero of Hit-Monkey is a Japanese snow monkey who teams up with the ghost of an American assassin to become the “killer of killers” and take out the most fearsome assassins in Japan. Season 2 finds the strange duo in New York trying to escape their shadowy existences, but it’s not easy to give up that kind of life. Hit-Monkey is based on a Marvel comic, and the first season of the animated action show earned rave reviews from both critics and fans, so if you like heroes, action, cartoons, or just things that are awesome, check this one out.
