Well, that was quick. Netflix’s constantly kvetching, washed up, alcoholic, anthropomorphic equine is has already been scheduled for a third season.

Following the series premiere less than a year ago, BoJack Horseman will return for its third season run sometime in 2016 with at least 12 new episodes. All the series regulars are set to return (Will Arnett, Alison Brie, Aaron Paul, Amy Sedaris, etc.) and no major shakeups have yet been reported.

For the uninitiated, BoJack Horseman follows the self-loathing former star of a sitcom called Horsin’ Around as he putzes around Hollywood, complaining about anything and everything. The series has caught fire with audiences, so if you’re a fan of the so-sad-that-it’s-funny genre, this is right up your alley.

News of the show being picked up came via the Television Critic’s Association summer press tour, and Vulture reports that plenty of other Netflix announcements came out of the event. Here’s a rundown:

  • Aziz Ansari’s highly-anticipated sitcom Master of None will debut on November 6, 2015 and will follow the personal and professional life of an indecisive young man named Dev.
  • The release of a new Chelsea Handler’s Documentary series called Chelsea Does is imminent and will chronicle the comedian’s attempts to do a number of controversial/amusing/interesting things.
  • A new Keith Richards Documentary (Keith Richards: Under the Influence) will air September 18, 2015.
  • Longmire will return for a fourth season September 10, 2015.
  • With Bob and David, a sketch-comedy series starring Bob Odenkirk and David Cross, will premier Q4 2015.
  • Marvel’s Jessica Jones, starring Krysten Ritter and David Tennant, will premier Q4 2015.
  • Sofia Coppola’s A Very Murray Christmas, starring Bill Murray and a host of other stars (George Clooney, Michael Cera, Chris Rock, etc.), will premier Q4 2015.
  • Hemlock Grove will be returning for its final season Q4 2015.
  • F is for Family, an animated show from Bill Burr, will premier Q4 2015.
  • A plethora of Comedy Specials are on the way: Demetri Martin: Live (At the Time), August 14, 2015; Anjelah Johnson: Not Fancy, October 2, 2015; Anthony Jeselnik: Thoughts and Prayers, October 16, 2015; John Mulaney: The Comeback Kid, November 13, 2015; Brent Morin, December 1, 2015; Mike Epps: After Dark, December 18, 2015.

3 Hulu movies you need to stream this weekend (April 26-28)
Luke Kirby and Michelle Williams in Take This Waltz.

As you've probably noticed, this is the last weekend of April. That means Hulu is about to lose some of its best movies before the new titles arrive May 1. And while we've already shared five great movies leaving Hulu at the end of April, those aren't the only terrific titles going out the door.

That's why this week's picks for the three Hulu movies that you need to stream this weekend are off the beaten path from the films we've previously chosen for April. We've picked out a historical drama, a romantic dramedy, and a remix of a classic Charles Dickens story. But since these movies are only around until April 30, you should catch these flicks before they go off to some other streamer.

Like Amazon Prime Video’s Fallout show? Then watch three shows and movies starring Ella Purnell
Lucy enters a house in Fallout.

Fallout has proven to be one of the bigger hits in Amazon Prime Video's existence, and it's also one of the most anticipated shows the streaming service has to offer this year. The series, which is loosely adapted from the popular video game franchise, stars Ella Purnell as a newly invented character who has to set off on a quest that will take her to the surface of a postapocalyptic version of Earth.

If you watched Fallout and found yourself intrigued by Purnell, in particular, then you're in luck. She's still a relatively new face in Hollywood, but she's starred in a number of projects in recent years, many of which have required her to hide her British accent. These are three you should definitely check out if you're a big Purnell fan.
