00:00Here's your breakdown of what to watch this weekend in THR's now screening.

00:04First, THR's chief TV critic, Daniel Feinberg, has his top pick of what you should check out.

00:08It's hard to describe Michaela Cole's new HBO series, I May Destroy You, which premieres Sunday.

00:14Episodes are a half hour, but it definitely isn't a comedy,

00:18which may surprise fans of Cole's Netflix writing-starring debut, Chewing Gum.

00:22I May Destroy You is the story of a millennial writer who wakes up from a night partying with friends,

00:27unable to remember anything.

00:28She begins to put together the pieces, and to suspect she was sexually assaulted.

00:33It's a little bit of mystery, a little bit of story of revenge,

00:36a little bit of story about a woman finding her voice after trauma.

00:40It's bracing, angry, occasionally funny, and very much a show that speaks to the way

00:45a lot of people are trying to process the world in 2020.

00:48Sometimes it gets a bit much.

00:50What do you do when it gets a bit much?

00:52Try yoga?

00:53Painting?

00:54Painting?

00:55Handicrafts?

00:56I don't even think I know what Handicrafts is.

00:59It definitely won't be for everybody, but if you don't know Michaela Cole and her work,

01:03she's an emerging voice we're going to be hearing a lot from.

01:06Thanks, Daniel.

01:07Over on Netflix, the fourth and final season of 13 Reasons Why is now streaming.

01:11What if they're watching him now?

01:13What if they're watching all of us?

01:21The Hollywood Reporter sat down with stars Ross Butler, Alicia Bowe, and Brandon Flynn before

01:25stay-at-home orders, and they told us what makes season four different from the previous

01:29three.

01:29You get answers.

01:31You get answers?

01:32Yeah.

01:33Wrap it up.

01:34It's time to go.

01:36It's senioritis.

01:38Like, everyone is graduating high school.

01:40Senioritis, that's a perfect way to accept.

01:42And you can see it in the tone, too, because the light moments can get really light.

01:47Yeah.

01:47But also a lot of the dark moments can get really dark.

01:51Plus, new episodes of Queer Eye just hit Netflix.

01:53The show's fifth season sees the Fab Five take on the city of brotherly love, aka Philadelphia,

01:58and transform 10 new heroes.

02:00My friends now get all the attention, and I'm just off in the corner.

02:04These expectations that you're holding on to, they're causing burdens in your life.

02:08Meanwhile, on Hulu, the Sundance Film Festival hit Shirley is now available to stream.

02:12Elizabeth Moss stars in the biographical thriller as renowned horror writer Shirley Jackson.

02:17She's gone sick in the head.

02:19I read your story.

02:20What are you doing here?

02:22It made me feel thrillingly horrible.

02:24Until next week's Now Screening, I'm Tiffany Taylor for The Hollywood Reporter News.
