The biggies
MobLand (Paramount+, Sunday, 3:01 a.m.)
Guy Ritchie—who helmed last year’s pretty fun The Gentlemen—is one of the executive producers of MobLand, a new series in which a London crime family gets embroiled in a war with a rival clan and brings on a fixer (played by Tom Hardy) to protect them. The stacked ensemble boasts Helen Mirren, Paddy Considine, Pierce Brosnan, Joanne Froggatt, Mandeep Dhillon, and Janet McTeer.
Pulse (Netflix, Thursday, 3:01 a.m.)
In Pulse, Netflix’s first medical procedural, the employees of a Miami trauma center have to put personal dramas aside when a major hurricane approaches, including Dr. Dani Simms (Willa Fitzgerald), who recently filed an HR complaint against her boss (played by Colin Woodall). Justina Machado, Nestor Carbonell, Jessie T. Usher, Jack Bannon, and Jessie Yates round out the cast. Look for The A.V. Club‘s review of the show on Thursday.
Dying For Sex (FX on Hulu, Friday, 12:01 a.m.)
