A family-friendly animated series that’s actually cool is part Steven Universe and part Hayao M

A family-friendly animated series that’s actually cool is part Steven Universe and part Hayao Miyazaki movie, boxing gets its Hoop Dreams, and why did a woman record TV 24 hours a day for decades? Hello! As America (and the world) moves through one of the greatest civil rights movements in its history toward a better future, the entertainment industry is scrubbing away some of its questionable past. But no one seems to know where the line is drawn. HBO Max [pulled Gone With the Wind because of its depiction of slavery and the Confederacy]( and several comedies — [It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia]( [Little Britain]( [Fawlty Towers]( [Chris Lilley’s series]( — have seen individual episodes or entire seasons pulled from streaming services because of depictions of blackface or use of racial slurs, whether the intention was racist or deliberately used to point out that racism is awful. What’s OK to pull and what’s OK to leave behind? I’m genuinely asking! I don’t have the answer, but it seems like media companies are choosing to be cautious. However, there’s a sign that they’re already revisiting the idea and using movies and shows as an opportunity to educate. HBO has [announced it will bring back Gone With the Wind with an introduction from Jacqueline Stewart]( a professor of African American film and studies at the University of Chicago. It seems everyone has a lot to consider when we look at our past. Here are today’s TV picks. –Tim [Your Watch This Now! newsletter is created by Senior Recommendations and Reviews Editor Tim Surette and more show-obsessed editors at TV Guide!]( WATCH THIS NOW! [Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts]( [Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is bright fun in the mutant apocalypse]( Season 2 now on Netflix This American animated series is set 200 years in the future when the world is trashed and deadly mutants roam the surface. And it’s positively delightful! The family-friendly series will make your kids instant fans of Kipo, a girl who lived underground but gets swept to the surface of a wrecked planet that she previously thought was uninhabitable, finding it filled with fascinating beasts and a small crew of humans who help her find her way home. Part Steven Universe and part Hayao Miyazaki film, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts is stylish, imaginative, and funny for everyone. And the lo-fi hip-hop, synth-pop, and dubstep soundtrack totally rules.

[SHOP NOW]( THE HUMAN DVR [Recorder: The Marion Stokes Project]( [Why did Marion Stokes record TV 24 hours a day since the 1970s?]( Monday at 10/9c on PBS We here at TV Guide watch a lot of TV, but we have nothing on Marion Stokes. Stokes, who passed away in 2012, recorded television on her VCRs. A lot of television. 30 years of television, multiple channels, 24 hours a day, more than 70,000 tapes worth. Her intent wasn’t to catch every episode of Facts of Life, but to archive television for posterity to keep an eye on media narratives as she feared America would one day devolve into something reminiscent of Nazi Germany and the truth would be twisted. Was it quirky insanity or prescient obsession that led her to hoard all that TV? (Her tapes are [now part of the Internet Archive]( Recorder: The Marion Stokes Project tries to answer that with this personal documentary about Stokes that’s a fascinating look at something and someone most of us just can’t understand. ALMOST 50 FIRST DATES [Dating Around]( [Dating Around is for nosey eavesdroppers]( Season 2 now on Netflix You know what I miss about the old non-coronavirus days? Going out on a bunch of dates with people. My wife, not so much! Ha ha, thank you, I will be here all week. But seriously folks, if you need to live vicariously through others as they explore romance the old-fashioned way, and not on Zoom, Netflix’s Dating Around is the perfect solution. The cinema verite-style reality show follows one person on dates with a handful of suitors, but it’s spliced together like it’s all the same date — same restaurant, same post-dinner bar, same clothes. There’s no prize, no narrator or host, no audience, but there’s instant chemistry, total incompatibility, fun banter, awkward small talk, and at the end, you do see who the person chose for a second date in a fun reveal. And just like Season 1, it covers both hetero and same-sex dating. A STRONG HOOK [Ringside]( [Ringside is Hoop Dreams for boxing]( Now on Showtime "Your best fighters come from hardship backgrounds,” youth boxing coach Kenny Sims Sr. says at the beginning of this emotional documentary about the highs and lows of a pair of highly touted boxing prospects from Chicago. And the two run into a lot in their quest for fame in the brutal sport; Kenny Sims Jr. faces crushing defeats in Olympic qualifiers and Destyne Butler Jr.’s journey gets derailed by a stint in jail. Ringside follows the youngsters over a nine-year span from their early teens to early 20s, showing the hardships underprivileged youths face in inner cities even though they’re loaded with raw talent, and the strengths of their relationships with their fathers, who do their best to keep them on the straight and narrow. This isn’t a documentary about the winners and champions that we’re supposed to root for, it’s about the kids who put everything into something to chase a dream, and the choices that are made that keep them on or off that path.
