Well, that was quick. Netflix’s constantly kvetching, washed up, alcoholic, anthropomorphic equine is has already been scheduled for a third season.

Following the series premiere less than a year ago, BoJack Horseman will return for its third season run sometime in 2016 with at least 12 new episodes. All the series regulars are set to return (Will Arnett, Alison Brie, Aaron Paul, Amy Sedaris, etc.) and no major shakeups have yet been reported.

For the uninitiated, BoJack Horseman follows the self-loathing former star of a sitcom called Horsin’ Around as he putzes around Hollywood, complaining about anything and everything. The series has caught fire with audiences, so if you’re a fan of the so-sad-that-it’s-funny genre, this is right up your alley.

News of the show being picked up came via the Television Critic’s Association summer press tour, and Vulture reports that plenty of other Netflix announcements came out of the event. Here’s a rundown:

  • Aziz Ansari’s highly-anticipated sitcom Master of None will debut on November 6, 2015 and will follow the personal and professional life of an indecisive young man named Dev.
  • The release of a new Chelsea Handler’s Documentary series called Chelsea Does is imminent and will chronicle the comedian’s attempts to do a number of controversial/amusing/interesting things.
  • A new Keith Richards Documentary (Keith Richards: Under the Influence) will air September 18, 2015.
  • Longmire will return for a fourth season September 10, 2015.
  • With Bob and David, a sketch-comedy series starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, will premier Q4 2015.
  • Marvel’s Jessica Jones, starring Krysten Ritter and David Tennant, will premier Q4 2015.
  • Sofia Coppola’s A Very Murray Christmas, starring Bill Murray and a host of other stars (George Clooney, Michael Cera, Chris Rock, etc.), will premier Q4 2015.
  • Hemlock Grove will be returning for its final season Q4 2015.
  • F is for Family, an animated show from Bill Burr, will premier Q4 2015.
  • A plethora of Comedy Specials are on the way: Demetri Martin: Live (At the Time), August 14, 2015; Anjelah Johnson: Not Fancy, October 2, 2015; Anthony Jeselnik: Thoughts and Prayers, October 16, 2015; John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid, November 13, 2015; Brent Morin, December 1, 2015; Mike Epps: After Dark, December 18, 2015.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)
A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.

As we head toward the end of June, it's worth reflecting on how we want to spend the rest of summer. For some, that's going to mean enjoying nice weather or getting some time in at the beach. For others, it might mean escaping from the heat, at least for a while, to check out a great movie.

If you fall into that second category, then we've pulled together a list of three great, underrated, titles available on Amazon Prime Video that are all worth checking out. Prime Video is home to some of the best movies available online, but it can be hard to find the ones you want. These three will at least give you a great place to start.
