Blue Therapy — The week’s hot U.K. export is sort of The Ultimatum in reverse, with seven couples visiting a therapist to see if their relationship is worth preserving. The little detail that all 14 clients are Black and the counselor is an old white lady seems kind of problematic — except to Disney, who may have just hit on the hook they’ve been looking for to update Mary Poppins. (Netflix)

The Hunt — This French drama about a bunch of outdoorsmen who run afoul of armed psychopaths had to be delayed three months when it was discovered that director/“creator” Cédric Anger had plagiarized the story. The credits to the finished product now include the more responsible acknowledgment «une œuvre originale de Claude.»  (Apple TV)

Young Sherlock — After an absence of 15 years, Guy Ritchie returns to the character of Sherlock Holmes in a prequel series that shows the destined-to-be-sleuth honing his investigative skills to clear himself of murder charges. Playing the teenage Holmes is Hero Fiennes Tiffin, who will prove himself a worthy progenitor to Robert Downey Jr. by speaking at a clip that renders his dialogue comprehensible solely to tweaking hummingbirds.

Ted — It’s 1994 as Season 2 begins, and Ted and his young buddy Jawn are partaking of all of the distractions of the era, like Dungeons & Dragons and 1-900 sex lines. If you see them joining a homicidal vampire cult, you’ll know the casting budget just took a hit. (Peacock)

Vladimir — The title’s your first clue that what we have here is a gender-swapped riff on the Lolita principle, with Rachel Weisz playing a married college professor drawn into a dangerous affair with a younger colleague (Leo Woodall). Before you cry any tears for her husband, consider that they probably didn’t cast John Slattery in the part because the character is a Promise Keeper or something. (Netflix)
