“Keeping Up With the Kardashians” ends its 14-year run on E! on Thursday after 279 episodes and 20 seasons. It preceded social media and, in the end, was superseded by it.
On the same day, a well-regarded show that debuted on TV Land, “Younger,” concludes after six seasons on Paramount+.
Paramount+ will also debut at the same time a new Mark Wahlberg sci-fi thriller “Infinite” that seems like it would have been better suited to debut in the movie theaters this summer instead of a relatively new streaming service.
Disney+’s third Marvel TV series “Loki” launches Wednesday. After “Avengers: Endgame,” Loki (Tom Hiddleston) ends up in an organization known as the Time Variance Authority, where the Time Keepers, including Owen Wilson’s Mobius, enlist his help in sorting out the mess he’s left behind. This series was shot largely in metro Atlanta, like “WandaVision” and “The Falcon and the Winter Solider.”
HBO Max continues its practice of releasing big films in theaters and the streaming service at the same time. The latest this Friday is the big-screen adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s Broadway smash “In the Heights,” which follows a cluster of first-generation immigrants from Puerto Rico, Cuba and the Dominican Republic who reside in the northern parts of Manhattan.
The only major broadcast debut this week is ABC’s “The Bachelorette” Monday while several other series conclude their seasons, including “Manifest,” “The Good Doctor,” “New Amsterdam” and “A Million Little Things.”
