Hiatus Watch: Girls5eva, Grand Crew, Killing It, Queer as Folk, Rutherford Falls and Wolf Like Me

I don't usually watch a lot of shows on the Peacock streaming service, the only show I really watch on there is Curious George. Hey, that animated series is in its 15th season. However, since it's Hiatus Season, I figure it's good time to watch a few more. There are six shows that I'm interested in watching: Girls5eva, Grand Crew, Killing It, Queer as Folk, Rutherford Falls and Wolf Like Me.

Girls5eva is about a singing group trying to make a come back. This looks really funny and also the show is currently in its second season. Grand Crew isn't technically a Peacock original series, it's actually an NBC series but you can watch it on Peacock. Anyway, when this show originally aired, I watched the first two episodes and really like it. Yet somehow I didn't continue watching it but I am now.

Although, I'm not keen on animals being killed, Killing It seems like an interesting series. As for Queer as Folks it's a reboot of the 90s series but it doesn't seem like the writers were trying to recreate the original show. Well, at least not entirely because there was a tragedy that happened near the end of original series. Rutherford Falls is also another show that's currently in its second season and it also looks really funny. Finally, Wolf Like Me is a show I meant to watch back in January but yet again I never got around to it. But I really want to know if she really is a werewolf or simply thinks she is.

I really can't wait to watch all of these shows. What have you been watching during Hiatus Season?
