    To Cook a Bear [Koka bj||rn] [new; complete limited series]
    (12:01 am, Hulu)

    Northern Sweden, 1852. A new pastor (Gustaf Skarsg|Nrd) and his family
    arrive in the isolated village of Kengis. With a strong belief in
    justice and change, he challenges the local elite but faces resistance
    as his fiery sermons ignite hope for a better life among the poor
    farmers. At the same time, the village is shaken by disappearances and frightening rumours of bear attacks. When the pastor and his S|imi foster
    son, Jussi, lead the search, they make a horrific discovery that creates
    deep rifts in the village's fragile community. The pastor is drawn into
    a dangerous battle, where forbidden love, power struggles, and brutal
    acts push the village toward a violent reckoning where no one is safe.
    What are the villagers willing to do to protect themselves, and where
    does the line between justice and vengeance lie? Swedish series; 6 episodes.

    Murdaugh: Death in the Family [new] (12:01 am, Hulu)

    One of the most-publicized true-crime stories in recent memory gets the miniseries dramatization treatment in this Hulu eight-parter, adapted
    from the popular Murdaugh Murders Podcast. The name of that podcast
    tells you that the seemingly perfect lives of a privileged South
    Carolina family led by Alex and Maggie Murdaugh (Jason Clarke and
    Patricia Arquette) are not so perfect after all. Another tipoff: Four
    years ago Maggie and her adult son Paul (Johnny Berchtold) were found
    murdered ... and Alex was later convicted of their killings. (And that's
    not anywhere close to the end of the story.) Brittany Snow, J.
    Smith-Cameron, Will Harrison, Gerald McRaney, Kathleen Wilhoite, and
    Noah Emmerich also star. The first three episodes stream today.

    the same name as her ex, to prove to the lottery board that she's
    happily married and is still eligible to claim the house. But with an investigator ever-lurking, things won't be as easy as they seem. Korean series.
