The Mandalorian Season 2 (October 30)
Is there any TV season that’s more anticipated than this show in 2020? We don’t think so. The first season of The Mandalorian in 2019 was a surprise critical hit, and helped to boost the subscriber numbers of Disney Plus. Can lightning strike twice for this Star Wars-based live-action series? Most of season 2’s plot details are under heavy guard, but you can expect to see the bounty hunter and his companion The Child (a.k.a. Baby Yoda) encountering even more threats in this series.

Tom Wolfe’s 1979 book about the early days of the U.S. space program became a huge best seller. Later, it was adapted into an acclaimed 1983 movie. Now, Disney Plus will debut the first season of The Right Stuff TV series. This National Geographic produced docudrama will focus mostly on the original Mercury Seven astronauts in its first season, who were picked in 1959 to be America’s first people into space.
