Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer (Docuseries)
Stream on July 11
A Hulu original, Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer is a three-part docuseries that follows Dr. Ann Burgess and her crime-hunting innovations that completely transformed the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit in the 1970s. A psychiatric nurse and professor, Dr. Burgess understood that to catch a serial killer, one must be able to think like a serial killer. As a result, she pioneered the development of modern serial-killer profiling by investigating widely known cases such as Ed Kemper and Ted Bundy, as well as lesser-known cases such as the Ski Mask Rapist.

How FBI Movies Became Their Own Genre
“The G-Men” encapsulate the perfect vehicle for all the tropes of the procedural cop drama, unfortunately losing their cool factor in the process.
With a deep compassion for victims, her tenacity positioned her at the center of some of the most infamous true crime cases in America. For viewers who were fans of the Netflix series Mindhunters, the latest Hulu docuseries will hopefully help fill the void left by the show. In fact, Anna Torv’s character in the series, Dr. Wendy Carr, was loosely based on Dr. Burgess and her career as a lone woman working at the FBI. Arguably an overlooked heroine, Dr. Burgess’s lasting impact on FBI profiling cannot be overstated. Mastermind: To Think Like a Killer is streaming on Hulu on July 11.
Marvel’s Hit-Monkey (Season 2)
Stream on July 15
A Hulu original, Hit-Monkey is an adult-animated series that follows Hit-Monkey (Fred Tatasciore), a wronged Japanese snow monkey who utilizes his skills as a hitman to dismantle Tokyo’s criminal underworld.

After a high-profile assassination turns sour, Bryce finds refuge among the monkey’s tribe of fellow Japanese macaques deep in the snowy mountains of the country.

However, when his past inevitably catches up with him, Bryce is killed. Subsequently, Hit-Monkey is mentored by Bryce’s ghost and begins his quest to kill everyone who crossed him. Based on Marvel characters, the show was intended to lead efforts in a crossover special with another series titled The Offenders. However, the latter never came to fruition.

Futurama (Season 12)
Stream on July 29
Futurama is an adult-animated science fiction sitcom that follows a pizza delivery boy named Fry (Billy West) who is accidentally cryogenically frozen on New Year’s Eve in 1999 during one of his deliveries. When he’s thawed on New Year’s Eve in 2999, he awakes to find a vastly different world than the one he left behind. Now in the future, Fry manages to secure a job at Planet Express, an interplanetary delivery company. While there, he befriends quite a cast of eccentric characters, including a one-eyed woman named Leela (Katey Sagal), a robot named Bender (John DiMaggio), and a distant relative of his named Professor Farnsworth (Billy West).
Through their travels, the crew experiences numerous adventures as they navigate the universe and get to know one another. While some of their endeavors present the possibility of terrible consequences, the crew always manages to skirt anything too serious and does so in a fairly comedic fashion. First premiering on Fox in 1999, the series has experienced various ups and downs over the years, including cancelations. However, Hulu revived the critically acclaimed show in 2022 and plans to continue the series for at least two more seasons through 2026.
