I might be jumping the gun here, but I’m ready to give all the Grammys and music-related Emmys to [Girls5eva’s “New York Lonely Boy,” (watch the “video”)](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) a Simon & Garfunkelly riff on only children — specifically boys — growing up in New York City with best friends who are doormen and a taste for sushi. “The Strand is his Disneyland…” Anyway, Girls5seva is on Peacock, so please watch it so I’m not the only one with that song stuck in their head. -Tim [Your Watch This Now! newsletter is created by Senior Recommendations and Reviews Editor Tim Surette and more show-obsessed editors at TV Guide!](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r MONDAY at 10/9C ON PBS [Donut King is a doc you donut want to miss](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) It's time for The Donut King to get its just desserts. After earning a special jury recognition for achievement in documentary storytelling at 2020's canceled SXSW Film Festival, the movie comes to PBS's Independent Lens series on Monday, making it easier than ever to enjoy. The film follows the rise and fall of Ted Ngoy, a Cambodian refugee who built a multi-million dollar donut empire in Southern California, offering work and visa sponsorship to hundreds of Cambodian refugees before bringing about his own ruin. It's a just-sweet-enough tale about the complexities of the American Dream. -Kelly Connolly suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r THURSDAY ON HBO MAX [Holy crap, the Friends reunion that was never going to happen is happening](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) It's the one you've been waiting for. All six friends — that is, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry, and Matt LeBlanc — are [reuniting on camera for the first time](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) since the sitcom's 2004 finale, and from the glimpses we've gotten so far, it seems to safe to say that you can expect tears, trivia, and answers to the question that has been plaguing our mortal world for years: Were Ross and Rachel on a break? There will also reportedly be appearances from a truly wild list of guest stars that includes David Beckham, BTS, Lady Gaga, and Malala Yousafzai. Friends is clearly the great uniter, so pour yourself a cup of coffee and settle in for the greatest nostalgia play in recent memory. -Allison Picurro suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r SEASON 3 PREMIERES TUESDAY AT 10/9C ON FX, WEDNESDAY ON HULU [It’s the final hit for dark comedy Mr. Inbetween](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) This under-the-radar Australian gem that was created by and stars Scott Ryan as assassin-for-hire Ray Shoesmith heads into its final season this week, but that probably won't stop me from recommending the show for years to come. Ray's occupation as a hitman makes good use of his natural violent tendencies, which only cause problems in his personal life as he tries to be a good father to his daughter with his ex-wife while also caring for his sick brother. Mr. Inbetween has all the dark comedy that you'd expect in a show about a hitman — there is plenty of laugh-out-loud violence and banter between inept crooks — but also has a tremendously huge heart as Ray works on becoming a better man to his family. It’s Barry before Barry was Barry. suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r SEASON 5 FINALE PREMIERES TUESDAY AT 10/9C ON NBC [This is (almost) it for This Is Us](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r) This Is Us will cap off Season 5 on Tuesday with the final episode before the NBC drama kicks off [its final season in 2022](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r). As with any big episode of This Is Us, tissues should be on hand and fans should prepare themselves for some heartbreak as we find out if Kevin (Justin Hartley) and Madison (Caitlin Thompson) make it down the aisle or if Kate (Chrissy Metz) and Toby (Chris Sullivan) have what it takes to weather the current storm in their marriage. There’s also the matter of the flash-forward, which we haven’t seen in a while, to find out who the father of Deja’s (Lyric Ross) baby is, and why Miguel (Jon Huertas) isn’t the one sitting at Rebecca’s (Mandy Moore) bedside. -Megan Vick ] suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r [Unsubscribe](suryGwdNr:m:1:2364960064:3DFEFEC5F7DB11D0017B4EE5A514A648:r:) | [View online]( © 2021 TV Guide, A Red Ventures company.
