Summer 2020 may seem a little different, but that doesn't mean there isn't a ton to look forward to.
Whether you're cueing up a weekend binge or a movie for date night, Netflix has a May through August lineup stacked with entertainment for streaming at home.
From Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani in romantic comedy The Lovebirds to the reunion of The Office's Greg Daniels and Steve Carell in the intergalactic comedy Space Force, here are the series and movies we're most looking forward to. (Fair warning: A good number of these picks don't have release dates just yet. So, keep your eyes peeled and your queues ready all summer long.)

Hollywood
Executive produced by Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan, this limited series follows starry-eyed actors and filmmakers trying to make it in post-World War II Hollywood. A critical look at the entertainment industry’s historically biased atmosphere — one that still prevents marginalized artists from gaining influence and opportunity today — Hollywood promises powerful drama and a meaningful application of revisionist history. Performances by Darren Criss, Jeremy Pope, Samara Weaving, Jim Parsons, and more.

Dead to Me Season 2
The bonkers world of Dead to Me is back for another onslaught of twists and turns. Creator and showrunner Liz Feldman returns to shepherd Jen and Judy (once again played by the masterful Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini) into a Season 2 that promises answers — or at least more confusion — about the untimely demises of Ted and Steve (James Marsden) and the uncertain future of off-duty detective Nick (Brandon Scott), who definitely knows too much.
