Summer TV Shows and Movies

While Summer is mainly for reading when it comes to entertainment in my life, I still get excited by Summer blockbusters and shows that caption the feel of Summer. Here are some of my past favorites as well as release dates for new movies and shows out this season! I am most excited for House of the Dragon, Only Murders in the Building, and Ghostlight.

I’m always looking for more shows and movies that capture all the Summer vibes, so please let me know your favorites and what’s on your “most anticipated” lists!
