Take a journey of love and self-discovery with the eightpart romantic drama series “From Scratch,” premiering Friday, Oct. 21, on Netflix. Inspired by the memoir of the same name by Tembi Locke (“Eureka”), the series stars Zoe Saldana (“Guardians of the Galaxy,” 2014) as Amahle “Amy” Wheeler, an American woman studying abroad in Italy. While there, Amy falls into an unexpected, whirlwind romance with Sicilian chef Lino (Eugenio Mastrandrea, “La fuggitiva”), and as they grapple with vastly different cultural backgrounds, language barriers and their opinionated families, the pair find themselves desperately in love. But when Lino is faced with unimaginable health challenges, their two families come together to prove that love can conquer more than just international borders. Written for the screen by Tembie and Attica Locke (“Empire”), “From Scratch” is directed by Dennie Gordon (“Burn Notice”) and Nzingha Stewart (“Little Fires Everywhere”). Roberta Rigano (“I Know This Much Is True”), Ruby Kammer (“That Dirty Black Bag”), Saad Siddiqui (“Coroner”), Jonothan Dylan King (“Taking the Fall,” 2021), Paride Benassai (“Baaria,” 2009), Kellita Smith (“Z Nation”), Carlos Arellano (“Our Flag Means Death”) and Lorenzo Pozzan (“Nick and Nicky,” 2022) also star.
“Unsolved Mysteries” - Volume 3
Dig into some of the world’s most chilling true stories when Volume 3 of “Unsolved Mysteries” premieres Tuesday, Oct. 18, on Netflix. Covering everything from unexplained deaths and baffling disappearances to bizarre paranormal activity and some seemingly unexplainable events, this Netflix revival of the iconic television series uses reenactments and interviews to retell the circumstances surrounding mysteries that have baffled detectives and the public for years. While past episodes have explored everything from the mysterious death of a former White House aide to ghost sightings after a tsunami in Japan and the escape of a death row fugitive, Volume 3 picks back up with the story of Josh Guimond. On Nov. 9, 2002, Guimond disappeared from St. John’s University in Collegeville, Minn. While walking home from a friend’s apartment around midnight, Josh disappeared, seemingly into thin air, and was never seen again. As his loved ones and local detectives continue hunting for any clue that could bring them closer to an answer, the series dives into the details and developments that have been made in the years since the incident. From 21 Laps productions, “Unsolved Mysteries” is executive produced by Shawn Levy (“Stranger Things”), Josh S. Barry (“Shadow and Bone”) and original series producers John Cosgrove, Terry Dunn Meurer and Robert M. Wise.
“Matriarch” (2022)
Letting go of the past is never easy, and that goes double in the new British horror film “Matriarch,” premiering Friday, Oct. 21, on Hulu. Afflicted with a mysterious disease after surviving an overdose, Laura (Jemima Rooper, “The Girlfriend Experience”) returns to her childhood home to confront her personal demons and attempt to leave them all in the past.

From director and writer Ben Steiner (“Monsterland 2,” 2019), “Matriarch” is a thematic successor to his 2018 short film “Urn.” The film also stars Kate Dickie (“The Green Knight,” 2021), Sarah Paul (“House of Anubis”), Simon Meacock (“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald,” 2018), Christina Cole (“The Window”), Franc Ashman (“I Came By,” 2022), Celinde Schoenmaker (“Rocketman,” 2019), Jamie Davis (“Casualty”), Stephen DeRosa (“Café Society,” 2016) and Jay Patel (“Torbaaz,” 2020).
“The Paloni Show! Halloween Special!”

Originally pitched to Fox as a screwball family comedy in 2009, “The Paloni Show!,” a variety series following the oddball antics of a not-so-ordinary American family, never came to be.

With guidance and advice from Luna (Lynne Thigpen, “The District”), the group learns and grows together through all kinds of new adventures and experiences. Created, written and directed by Mitchell Kriegman (“The Book of Pooh”), the series also features writers Andy Yerkes (“Pocoyo”) and P. Kevin Strader (“Arthur”).
