This weekend I have … 45 minutes, and I want more superheroes
‘Invincible’
When to watch: Arrives Friday, on Amazon.
This new animated series from Robert Kirkman (“The Walking Dead”), adapted from his comic, centers on Mark (voiced by Steven Yeun), a teenager who looks up to his superhero father (J.K. Simmons) and is eager to follow in his footsteps. Maybe he shouldn’t be quite so eager, though — Omni-Man might not be as super or heroic as he seems. Although the show’s themes of individuating from one’s parents and developing a support system and moral code fit in a more Y.A. space, its extreme gore is decidedly adult. The first three episodes drop Friday, and the subsequent five will be released weekly through April 30.
… an hour, and quack quack quack
‘The Mighty Ducks: Game Changers’
When to watch: Arrives Friday, on Disney+.
Like “Cobra Kai” and “Saved by the Bell,” this “Mighty Ducks” revival is a good-natured series set in the same world as the original, with some returning characters and some next generation children in the mix. Lauren Graham stars as roughly the same character she played on “Gilmore Girls” and “Parenthood,” a charming and devoted single mom who on this show starts a hockey team so her tween son can keep playing after he is cut from the now-villainous Ducks. The rink where they practice is run by none other than Gordon Bombay (Emilio Estevez), who swears he’s out of the hockey world. But if you’ve ever encountered even a molecule of popular entertainment before, you know that vow won’t last.
… four hours, and I can’t wait for summer
‘The Restaurant: 1951’
When to watch: Now, on Sundance Now.
Season 1 of this Swedish drama (in Swedish, with subtitles) starts in 1945, Season 2 in 1955, Season 3 in 1968. But this four-episode fourth season takes us back to the summer of 1951. Calle and Nina (Charlie Gustafsson and Hedda Stiernstedt), the central couple on the series, are married to other people, and they pretend as if they’re going to keep their distance. But how many longing stares and sighs can two characters — or one viewer — possibly endure? If you like period dramas in general or ensemble dramas in which adult siblings have meaningful beef with one another, or if all your dreams involve sun-soaked seashores, watch this.
