The High School Musical series, the musical: for a handful of nostalgia
Released in November 2019, the High School Musical series currently has only one season on its counter. However, the second season has just been announced for May 14, 2021. So you only have two months left to update. Taking up the mythical universe of Kenny Ortega, the series tells the daily life of teenagers who decide to put on a show on the film High School Musical to honor the trilogy shot in their high school. The series deals with rivalry, tumultuous relationships, self-acceptance as well as the first emotions of love, all in music. We take pleasure in discovering the covers of the songs that rocked our childhood. And to accentuate the nostalgic side, Tim Federle invited Lucas Grabeel (Ryan Evans) and Kaycee Stroh (Martha Cox) during an episode. A nice way to pay tribute. The first season is available on Disney+.

Isn't it romantic: a tangy romantic comedy
Unhappy in love and at work, Natalie thinks life has a tooth against her. Single, she lives alone with her poodle and hates romantic comedies. However, after an assault in the subway, she wakes up in a parallel life that looks in every way like a silly sentimental comedy. Shot in a comic way and pushed to the extreme, Isn't it romantic is funnily touching. Taking up the keys of romantic comedies, the film mocks typical clichés. The film is available on Netflix. 
@Netflix Josh (Adam Levin), Natalie (Rebel Wilson), Isabella (Priyanka Chopra Jonas)
