“Somebody Somewhere” doesn’t shock you the way in which TV reveals shock you — it surprises you the way in which life surprises you, and this weekend’s season finale does precisely that, combining deep ache and ebullient dazzle. Bridget Everett delivers among the many yr’s greatest performances as Sam, nonetheless grieving her sister’s demise but in addition making an attempt to be somewhat extra susceptible, extra open, extra forgiving, extra in contact with each her figurative and her literal voice. “You have a wealthy, full instrument,” her singing trainer tells her. “And everybody has to work exhausting, it doesn’t matter what their reward is.” Please oh please, let this present be renewed for a 3rd season.

… just a few hours, and I need a household comedy.

‘Primo’
When to look at: Now, on Freevee.

Rafa (Ignacio Diaz-Silverio) is a junior in highschool and the recipient of fixed recommendation from his 5 omnipresent kooky uncles, his mother, his steering counselor, his buddies. And whereas a whole lot of coming-of-age reveals middle on characters determined to develop up, who say “I’m 16!” to imply “I’m an grownup!,” Rafa is sweetly hanging on to the final chapters of his childhood, even when everybody thinks he needs to be extra targeted on his future. Speed and cynicism usually go collectively in comedy, however “Primo” zips together with a simple, distinctive heat. If you just like the completely happy loopiness of “Scrubs,” “Bob’s Burgers” or particularly “Malcolm within the Middle,” do that.

‘Prehistoric Planet 2’
When to look at: Now, on Apple TV+.

This lush dino documentary franchise, narrated by David Attenborough and scored by Hans Zimmer, Anze Rozman and Kara Talve, finishes its second collection with an episode about North America, however the present explores each a part of the globe. Each installment is stuffed with creatures’ wistful gazing, with moments of crafty and majesty — all the character documentary goodness you get from “Planet Earth” et al. But a few of its dedication to the bit appears odd: “The largest mass migration on Earth happens in virtually whole darkness,” Attenborough says within the “Oceans” episode, “and might solely be seen with particular night-vision cameras.” Then a dinosaur swims by. That have to be some digital camera!
