Best new Hulu Originals: December 2021

The following are the best new Hulu originals coming to the platform this month.

It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia Season 15

Available December 2

For fifteen years, the “gang” from Paddy’s has been making us laugh, frown, cry, and occasionally cringe. Where do Frank, Dennis, Mac, Charlie, and Dee go from here? Ireland, of course.

The upcoming two-parter that takes the gang to the Emerald Isle is just one of the things to look forward to this season. Another sequel to the gang’s ongoing Lethal Weapon home movies. The Gang Replaces Dee with a Monkey. The Gang Carries a Corpse up a Mountain. By the way, did you know that Always Sunny is officially the longest-running American sitcom now? Eat your heart out, Ozzie and Harriet. -Jaime Carrillo

Pen15 Season 2, continued

Available December 3

Facing adolescence in the early ’00s may have been scarring in a myriad of ways, but it was also hilarious. Comediennes Maya Erskine and Anna Konkle not only recount their middle school memories but play them out. You’d think two thirty-something playing themselves from more than 20 years ago would take you out, but their performances truly have to be seen to be believed. -Jaime Carrillo

Best new movies on Hulu: December 2021

The following are the best new movies on Hulu this month.

Sherlock Holmes series

Available December 1

Forget unconventional Christmas movies like Die Hard. There’s an entire sub-genre of movies devoid of mirth, magic, or the Christ child that still have an overall Christmas vibe. The Harry Potter series is perhaps the most iconic of this genre. However, the Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes series hits just a tad better.

While the character is now more or less synonymous with Benedict Cumberbatch. Downey Jr’s interpretation of the world-famous detective is far zestier, and ultimately, a little more fun. Jude Law plays the long-suffering Dr. Watson, in a series that expertly combines high-flying action with serious sleuthing. Both the Sherlock Holmes and its sequel Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows.-Jaime Carrillo

Oceans series

Available December 1

The early ’00s may have been a creative vacuum, with one seriously entertaining outlier. The Oceans series, starting with Oceans 11 (2001), was a college course on stunt-casting.

Sure, George Clooney and Julia Roberts are there. But so is Brad Pitt. And Bernie Mac. And Elliot Gould. And somehow, inexplicably, Carl Reiner. All three movies comprise pretty satisfying heists and even a fair amount of laughs. Some of the coziest films for the coziest time of year. -Jaime Carrillo

Best new shows on Hulu: December 2021

Here’s a peak of the new shows coming to Hulu this month.

Letterkenny Season 10

Available December 26

The last week and a half of December, the world sort of slows down. Luckily, a day after the “big day,” there’s a whole new season of everyone’s favorite Canadian sitcom. There’s no better way to top off the year than with a laugh from the north.

Best recent releases on Hulu: Editors’ picks

Hit-Monkey

Earlier this year, M.O.D.O.K. got his own show. The M.O.D.O.K! At this point, just about every tertiary Marvel character will eventually get their 15 minutes of fame. The latest is the gun-wielding Japanese macaque, Hit-Monkey.

After watching his Mentor Bryce get get sprayed by bullet fire, Hit-Monkey is out for vengeance. His mentor is now a ghost, haunting the poor dude as he learns to wield a gun to take down the villains who gunned down his friend. Featuring an all-star voice cast including Jason Sudeikis, Olivia Munn, and George Takei, Hit-Monkey will more than likely pistol whip his way into your heart. – Jaime Carrillo
