This Month’s Highlight
The Franchise
Everyone is checking out Veep again, but if that’s not enough for you, the latest show from Veep creator Armando Ianncci (and Jon Brown and Sam Mendes) is also a workplace comedy. The Franchise follows the cast and crew of a film — played by Himesh Patel, Billy Magnussen, Lolly Adefope, and more — working on a chaotic superhero film set. Is it Blade? (Streaming October 6.)
