Tonight is the series premiere of Candy on Hulu at 12:01AM/11:01PMc. Candy Montgomery is a 1980 housewife and mother who did everything right – good husband, two kids, nice house, even the careful planning and execution of transgressions – but when the pressure of conformity builds within her, her actions scream for just a bit of freedom. With deadly results. Starring Jessica Biel, Melanie Lynskey, Pablo Schreiber, Raul Esparza, and Timothy Simons.
 
Overnight was the series premiere of Love in the Jungle on Discovery+. Animals have courtship down to a science. Millions of animal species have tried-and-true techniques for finding a mate. Their rituals and mating displays are diverse, ostentatious, and to humans, sometimes outright nonsensical… but their effectiveness cannot be denied. Without a doubt, animals know how to find a mate. It begs the question: is the key to finding true love mating like animals, rather than dating like humans? In a ground-breaking new series that pushes the dating scene into the world of nature, fourteen unlucky-in-love singles are ready to test that theory as they participate in mating rituals pulled straight from the animal kingdom – and do so with little to no verbal communication. For these singles, it’s the chance to unleash their inner animals and hone their natural instincts in the ultimate pursuit of true love.
 
Tonight is the series premiere of Love Match Atlanta on Bravo at 9/8c. Bravo’s newest series, Love Match Atlanta, gives a glimpse into the personal and professional lives of five of Atlanta’s hottest matchmakers. The series will stream on Peacock the day following its Bravo telecast.

But his size haunted him throughout his life and his untimely passing at age 46 prompted questions about his rare hormonal condition known as acromegaly.
