Rueben's Ramblings

Here is the list of the programming options to expect on TV this coming week:

On September 12, the 74th Annual Emmy Awards will air on NBC at 8 PM; and that same night, the 3rd season of War of the Worlds will premiere on EPIX at 9 PM. War of the Worlds will then move to its regular Sunday night timeslot on September 18.

The 5th season premiere of The Handmaid’s Tale will air on Hulu online on September 14; and that same day, the finale of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series will air on Disney+ online.

On September 15, the 10-episode small screen adaptation of Vampire Academy will debut online on Peacock. From Julie Plec and Marguerie MacIntyre comes a story of friendship, romance and danger. In a world of privilege and glamour, two young women’s friendship transcends their strikingly different classes as they prepare to complete their education and enter vampire society. One as a powerful Royal, the other a half-vampire Guardian trained to protect against the savage ‘Strigoi’ who threaten to tear their society apart. That is, if Royal infighting doesn’t do the job first. A bevy of new faces will star in the lead roles along with Angel alum J. August Richards.

The Sundance Now drama The Light in the Hall will debut online on September 15. This psychological thriller is about the disappearance of a 15-year-old girl, Ela Roberts, in 2002. Joe Pritchard (Iwan Rheon from Game of Thrones) was arrested after her DNA was found in his caravan and he confessed to her murder, though he has not disclosed where her body is. When the news breaks that Joe is about to be released from prison after 18 years – much to the horror of Ela’s mother (Joanna Scanlan), journalist Cat Donato (Alexandra Roach) decides to return to Llanemlyn to discover the truth about Ela’s final days for once and for all. But will Cat be warmly welcomed back in the town where she grew up? Sharon is also desperate for answers, and she’ll go to any lengths to get them.

On September 16, the Apple TV+ series Five Days at Memorial will air its finale online; while that same day, the second season premiere of Fate: The Winx Saga will air online on Netflix; and also on that day, the series finale of Dynasty will air at 9 PM on The CW.

The Netflix movie I Used To Be Famous will debut online on September 16. The movie follows Vince (Ed Skrein), a desperate former pop star who dreams of making a comeback. An impromptu jam session with autistic young drummer Stevie (Leo Long) sparks an unexpected friendship between the two misunderstood musicians. The cast includes Eoin Macken (The Night Shift).

Also on September 16, the small screen adaptation Heathers: The Musical will debut online on The Roku Channel. Based on the 1989 cult classic film that starred Winona Ryder and Christian Slater, the musical adaptation follows Westerberg High student Veronica Sawyer (Ailsa Davidson), the beautiful yet cruel Heathers, and mysterious rebel Jason “J.D.” Dean (Simon Gordon).

The Netflix movie A Jazzman’s Blues will debut online on September 16. The movie follows an investigation into an unsolved murder unveiling a story full of forbidden love, deceit and a secret.

The new movie Wedding of a Lifetime will debut on the Hallmark Channel at 8 PM on September 17. Darby (Brooke D’Orsay) and Jake (Jonathan Bennett) are an engaged couple who have been together since their days as high school sweethearts in a close-knit mountain town. Over the years they have found themselves in a rut and drifting apart. When their entire community nominates them to compete for an all-expenses paid wedding in a nationally televised contest, this just may be what the couple needs to rekindle their romance.

When she visits the orchard and connects with her new-found family, she learns that the orchard is dep in debt. Using her knowledge as an antiques expert, Tess and her half-sister work to unravel the mystery of their grandmother’s “treasure” that could hold the key to saving the orchard. And, in the process, Tess ultimately finds a new understanding of herself.

Lastly, also on September 18, the new movie Love’s Sweet Recipe will debut on UPtv at 7 PM. After the passing of her father, Chef Courtney works to keep his restaurant from running into the ground.
