It’s a new year, which means plenty of network TV shows are headed to Hulu when they debut in January — including newcomers like Fox’s musical drama Monarch, ABC historical series Women of the Movement and sitcom Abbott Elementary, and the final seasons of returning series like NBC’s This Is Us or ABC’s Black-ish. Hulu also has a TV premiere of its own with the debut of How I Met Your Father, the follow-up series inspired by long-running sitcom How I Met Your Mother that stars Hilary Duff and Kim Cattrall. There are also Certified Fresh movies from 2021 like I’m Your Man, Bergman Island, and Small Engine Repair and oldies but goodies — including the streaming debut of Golden Girls spin-off The Golden Palace — and much more.

Read on to find out what else is headed to the streaming service and what’s leaving this month, with a few highlights at the top.

HIGHLIGHTS

Description: In the year 2045, Sophie (Hilary Duff) is telling her son the story of how she met his father: A story that catapults us back to the year 2021 where Sophie and her close-knit group of friends are in the midst of figuring out who they are, what they want out of life, and how to fall in love in the age of dating apps and limitless options.

Sex Appeal (2022)

58%

Description: Avery Hansen-White doesn’t do things she isn’t excellent at. So when her long-distance boyfriend hints at wanting to take their relationship to the next level, she sets out to master her sexuality, employing her oldest friend, Larson, as a test subject. In this hilarious teen comedy, Avery’s study results in the realization that there’s more to sex, and love, than mechanics. Relationships require both head and heart.
