Hulu has a number of original shows debuting and returning this September. Pen15, starring Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle as their childhood selves, returns for a second season along with the premiere of the new comedy series Woke, starring Lamorne Morris. Known for New Girl and Game Night, Morris plays a cartoonist named Keef who finds himself confronted by inanimate objects about inequality after an aggressive encounter with racist police officers. Meanwhile, Madagascar: A Little Wild follows beloved characters Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe, and Gloria the Hippo as kids living at the Central Park Zoo’s rescue habitat. The gang’s new adventures will be streaming on both Hulu and Peacock.
September has traditionally been the start of the network TV season, but things evidently aren’t the same this year. With the fresh FX on Hulu banner, however, TV fans can look forward to new seasons of Fargo and Archer, with the latest episodes streaming a day after airing on cable. Twihards can celebrate knowing all five films in The Twilight Saga are streaming. Runaway hit StarDog and TurboCat; featuring the voices of Luke Evans, Nick Frost, Gemma Arterton, Bill Nighy, and Charli D’Amelio will also grace the streamer. And for those interested in more critically-acclaimed films, look out for Prisoners, The Impossible, and Babyteeth.
Check out the full list of movies and shows coming to Hulu in September 2020 and our recommendations below. See what’s also joining Netflix, HBO Max, and Disney+ this month!
Our Recs:
Woke
Inspired by the life and work of artist Keith Knight, Woke takes an absurdly irreverent look at identity and culture as it follows Keef (Lamorne Morris), an African-American cartoonist finally on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes everything. With a fresh outlook on the world around him, Keef must now navigate the new voices and ideas that confront and challenge him, all without setting aflame everything he’s already built. The series also stars T. Murph, Blake Anderson, Sasheer Zamata and Lara Goldie. This definitely deserves checking out.
Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure
Tim Burton’s feature directorial debut, Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure follows the eponymous character on a nationwide search for his stolen bicycle. Wacky, funny and with a banger of a soundtrack from Danny Elfman, this movie’s a classic in every sense of the word.
Demolition Man
It’s 2032, LA is now a pacifist utopia called San Angeles. Sylvester Stallone and Sandra Bullock are on the hunt for a killer on the loose played by Wesley Snipes. While originally mixed upon theatrical release, the movie did end up predicting the future, with its calls to end the practice of shaking hands and toilet paper shortages.
