What's On Tonight (Friday): Supervillain Taylor Sheridan No Match for the Wonderfools

The Wonderfools

The most notable premiere today is the latest Taylor Sheridan series, which stars Cole Hauser, Annette Benning and Ed Harris, but I have never watched a Taylor Sheridan series and have no interest in starting.  Instead I am bestowing today's Top Pick on the Korean superhero comedy The Wonderfools.  The trailer looks fun and it's slim premiere pickings today.

By the way, the actual translation of the title is The Wonderfuls, but Netflix knows how much it's subscribers love puns.

Second place goes to another Netflix series, the art heist action series Berlin and the Lady with an Ermine.  The series comes form the creators of Money Heist, so it's bound to be slickly produced and not make a bit of sense.  But, once again, the trailer is fun and there's just not much else piquing my interest.

⭐🔔 The Wonderfools (Netflix, 3:01 AM) 'A goofy group of townies stumbles into superpowers and fights rising evil as doomsday panic grows in this wild, turn-of-the-century action comedy.'✔️
