| WHAT TO WATCH | | | Self Made — An American Tale. Madame C.J. Walker, a Black woman who made a fortune off selling hair products, is often referred to as the first self-made female millionaire. This new Netflix series has a searing performance from Octavia Spencer. For background, check out this OZY story about a female beauty entrepreneur who may have beat Walker to the million-dollar mark. |
| Little Fires Everywhere — Family Drama. The miniseries adaptation of Celeste Ng’s best-seller is a powerhouse, with Reese Witherspoon and Kerry Washington starring as two women in the suburbs squaring off. |
| Never Have I Ever — New Teen Classic. This all-too-short new sitcom created by Mindy Project star Mindy Kaling is an unprecedented (and incredibly well-written) coming-of-age story of a California teen’s Indian American life. It’s the best thing Kaling, who also wrote for The Office, has ever done. |

| | | | | | Let them see your legs. ABC reporter Will Reeve briefly became internet famous when he went on Good Morning America this week without any pants on. Since the shot was from the waist up, Reeve likely thought nobody would notice, but sharp-eyed viewers spotted his bare legs in a wide shot. | |
