What to Stream: 'Splitsville,' J. Cole and Nick Jonas
The goofy and wry relationship comedy “Splitsville” landing on Hulu and fresh albums by J. Cole and Nick Jonas are some of the new television, films and music headed to a device near you.
One of last year’s funniest original movies, the goofy and wry relationship comedy “Splitsville,” is streaming on Hulu starting Thursday. Michael Angelo Covino and Kyle Marvin , the duo behind “The Climb” bring the audience along on a metaphorical roller coaster in a comedy about open relationships, divorce and human mistakes, in which they star opposite Dakota Johnson and Adria Arjona.
Also coming to Hulu, on Thursday, is James L. Brooks’ “Ella McCay,” a starry political dramedy with Emma Mackey playing an ambitious and idealistic lieutenant governor who has to take over for her boss.
Nick Jonas, the youngest of the Jonas Brothers trio and fresh off a successful stadium run with his siblings, will release his first solo album in just under five years on Friday, Feb. 6, titled “Sunday Best.” The first taste arrived in the form of lead single “Gut Punch.” It is smooth adult pop — as is his bread and butter — easy listening for those in need of a love song.
Also on tap, the innovative rapper and producer J. Cole returns with his seventh studio album, “The Fall-Off.” Some fans theorize it may be his final record — and with good reason. The music video for “Disc 2 Track 2,” released in January, begins with a note from Cole describing that he knew “in my heart I would one day get to the finish line.”
It may be cold outside, but there’s a heatwave on Bravo as the reality series “Summer House” returns for a 10th season. The show features Manhattanites sharing a shore house in the Hamptons, although recent seasons have also followed the gang when they’re back in New York during the week. It streams on Peacock beginning Wednesday.
Netflix’s “The Lincoln Lawyer” is back for Season 4 beginning Thursday. Based on novels by Michael Connelly, the series follows talented Los Angeles attorney Mickey Haller as he takes on high-profile defendants.
Keke Palmer stars in a TV adaptation of the 1989 Tom Hanks movie “The 'Burbs” for Peacock. All eight-episodes drop Sunday, Feb. 8. Palmer and Jack Whitehall play a couple who move to suburbia with their new baby to live a nice, quiet life. The neighborhood seems less idyllic once the wife becomes fixated on one of her neighbors, whom she connects with a decades-long missing person case.
