Too Hot to Handle: Season 2
Last year, with quarantine and social isolation being the norm, the dating reality TV show “Too Hot to Handle: Season One” became a timely distraction and escape for many. As we eye-candied the gorgeous-looking candidates and got frustrated over some of their many decisions, we also get a glimpse of the salience of relationship building through thoughtful conversations (season 1 put a stop to in-person interaction for a while). In June, a new season beckons and with the restriction lifted away, we can expect a wild ride, featuring plenty of sun, scandals and of course, sexual tension.
Too Hot to Handle: Season 2 will be available on Netflix on 23 June 2021.
The A List: Season 2
The first season of the teen supernatural drama “The A List”, which was first aired on BBC, was not commissioned for a single season by BBC. Fortunately, our favourite TV streaming service Netflix has taken over the reins and produced the upcoming season. In the second season, a group of teens is trapped on an island, where the dead never seems to die.
The A List: Season 2 will be available on Netflix on 25 June 2021.
