If You Are Ashamed You Part Your Hair to the Side: Following in Euphoria's footsteps, Genera+ion is the latest exploration of modern teen life. The Lena Dunham-produced dramedy follows a group of high school students that will explore their sexuality and test their deeply entrenched beliefs about life, love and the nature of family in their conservative community.

Recapping Allen v Farrow: Dylan Farrow's Story Resurfaces and History Almost Repeats Itself

If You Want to Come Full-Circle: Allen v. Farrow, HBO's four-part series that digs into the 1992 sex abuse accusations against Woody Allen brought by his adopted daughter Dylan Farrow, comes to a conclusion this weekend. The final episode will focus on the family attempting to heal and Dylan's decision to speak out about the allegations for the first time in 2014. While the filmmaker's name may be in the title, the sometimes disturbing and heartbreaking Allen v. Farrow is ultimately about Dylan's journey to find some semblance of closure and regain control over her own story, something victims of sexual abuse rarely are afforded the opportunity to do. (Where to Watch: Premieres Sunday at 9 p.m. on HBO Max)

If You're Already Missing Wanda: Did you really think the MCU would let ya down? To tide you over in the small window between WandaVision's finale and The Falcon and Winter Soldier's debut on March 19, Marvel Studios Assembled is here to take you behind the scenes of the franchise's movies and series. First up, of course, is the Elizabeth Olsen and Paul Bettany-led show that took over your timeline for the last seven weeks. Assembled: The Making of WandaVision will feature interviews with the creative team and the stars—including MCU newcomers (and queens!) Kathryn Hahn and Teyonah Parris—as they pull back the curtain on 2021's most unusual show so far. Maybe it really was Agatha all along? (Where to Watch: Disney+)

If HGTV Is Your Entertainment of Choice: Rejoice, Marriage or Mortgage is here to bring the home renovation goods and the romantic drama. Real estate agent Nichole Holmes and wedding planner Sarah Miller team up in the docuseries to help real-life couples decide between throwing their dream wedding or buying their forever home.

If You Are Constantly Saying "Dating Is So Hard": Prepare for the first-ever "soulmate science fiction" limited series, which was created and written by Misfits' Howard Overman. Based on John Marrs' 2017 novel of the same name, The One is set just five minutes in the future, in a world where a DNA test can reveal the person you're genetically predisposed to fall in love with. But what if you're already in a committed relationship? Clearly, this is what the "It's Complicated" status on Facebook intended to be used for. (Where to Watch: Netflix)
