It’s spring cleaning time for networks and streamers, with Upfronts on the horizon. That means some of your favorite shows are being kicked out on the streets, while others are getting another season. (Technically, streamers, which operate on a year-round schedule, are immune to Upfronts. But that's not stopping them from dropping the axe.) The CW just renewed Kung Fu and Stargirl, while Netflix just canceled one of its best historical dramas ([this one](sXtdVEdNs:m:1:2364960064:4824FF24559C6BBB331AC59DEED02494:r)).

On Tuesday, the Star Wars overlord is releasing a whole bunch of Star Wars content on Disney+, including the new animated series Star Wars: The Bad Batch, a Maggie-centric Simpsons short called The Force Awakens From Its Nap, the virtual vacation around the Star Wars universe Star Wars: Biomes, and the spaceship tour Star Wars: Vehicle Flythroughs.

U need 2 C Girls5eva](sXtdVEdNs:m:1:2364960064:4824FF24559C6BBB331AC59DEED02494:r) Tina Fey and Robert Carlock — the minds behind 30 Rock — collab once again on this Peacock original comedy about members of a girl group who reunite 20 years after they were almost famous. It's got that trademark Tina Fey zing to its jokes, mashing pop culture references and cutaway gags into its zaniness, as the women — not nearly as limber as they used to be — chase success for a second time with frequently disastrous results. Sara Bareilles, Busy Phillips, Reneé Elise Goldsberry, and Paula Pell star, with many SNL vets stopping by for cameos. sXtdVEdNs:m:1:2364960064:4824FF24559C6BBB331AC59DEED02494:r HBO MAX IN MAY IS HOT HOT HOT [Angelina Jolie as a skydiving firefighter is just one of our HBO Max picks for May](sXtdVEdNs:m:1:2364960064:4824FF24559C6BBB331AC59DEED02494:r) The A-lister stars in Taylor Sheridan’s Those Who Wish Me Dead, the latest Warner Bros. movie headed straight to streaming the same day it premieres in theaters. In it, she runs from hired gunmen AND raging wildfires. Also coming is the new Jean Smart comedy Hacks, an Alex Gibney documentary on the opioid epidemic, and the streaming debut of Tenet.

In May, Hulu also has the final season of Shrill and a ton of great movies, including Stanley Tucci’s heartfelt Supernova and Chloë Grace Moretz shooting down airplanes in the grindhouse action film Shadow in the Cloud.

The Underground Railroad is an alternate history drama that imagines Harriet Tubman’s famed path to freedom as an actual railroad, and in Jenkins’ hands, it’s a gorgeous, but brutal, ride. Also coming to Amazon is the sci-fi anthology Solos, which boasts a ridiculous cast that includes Morgan Freeman, Anne Hathaway, and Helen Mirren.
