Stranger Things series four arrives at Netflix on Friday, May 27. And you can bet your life we’ll be watching

Stranger Things Streaming Friday, Netflix It’s always a problem when TV shows nail their early seasons. Surely the only way is down? Regular TV watchers get where I’m at — so often shows that run for more than three seasons take a deep dive in the quality stakes somewhere around the middle. Sometimes they pick it back up again (Homeland!), sometimes they don’t (Game of Thrones, we’re looking at you). Often, they shed viewers around this point, and those of us that do stay faithful do it either out of some sort of perverse sense of needing completion, or out of sheer morbid curiosity as to how bad things will end up getting. You can understand my worry, then, when I sat down to preview the fourth season of Stranger Things. It’s the final series, and because of its length, it has been split into two parts, the first of which hits screens this week — the second will begin on July 1. I’ve been a huge fan since the get-go, sadly watching the entire thing on my own (often through slitted fingers), as no one else in my family was game enough to give it a go. I was so worried after season three’s terrific cliffhanger finale that it would all be downhill from here. I’m pleased to say it’s not. Not by a long shot. I can’t tell you too much (hello, ironclad non-disclosure agreement), but I can tell you things get super interesting beyond the first episode. We’re gifted with lots of answers to lots of questions and it’s an absolute treat to see the kids — now fully fledged teens — back on their bikes, fanging around Hawkins again. At the risk of being sued: guys, you’re flat out going to love this. Obi-Wan Kenobi Streaming Friday, Disney Plus We’ve been rewatching old Star Wars films this week in preparation for this series, which sees Ewan McGregor reprise his role as Jedi knight, Obi-Wan. To say we’re excited is an understatement but will it live up to the hype? Unfortunately, like Stranger Things, this is under such a cloud of secrecy that getting my hands on a preview copy was completely impossible, much to my son’s displeasure — surely having a mum who reviews TV for a job has to have some perks? We’ll be tuning in with the rest of you this Friday as it drops on Disney Plus. Can’t wait! Kick Like Tayla Streaming Friday, Prime Video AFLW star Tayla Harris — she of super, mega high-kick awesomeness — is the subject of this fascinating documentary, which charts her personal and professional highs and lows over the past few years. She’s been on quite a ride. Loved this. You Can’t Ask that Wednesday, 9pm, ABC I LOLd so hard through this episode of YCAT. It’s all about bogans, and bugger me if it’s not the funniest 30 minutes and 29 seconds of TV you’ll watch this week. This series continues to be one of my very favourite shows. Can’t wait to see more eps. Ragdoll Tuesday, 6.30pm, BBC First and streaming on Binge Warning: this excellent crime drama is not for the faint of heart. But as someone who absolutely devours macabre crime novels, I adored this series, which mines some extremely dark, and totally fascinating territory. It’s also surprisingly funny!
