This week’s list of must-watch programs features Bong Joon Ho’s multiple Oscar-winning film Parasite, the sophomore season of Ramy Youssef's self-titled series and Anna Kendrick’s new original rom-com anthology.

Parasite

Find out why critics and cinephiles around the world are still raving about Bong Joon Ho’s Academy Award-winning drama thriller, as Parasite lands on Crave. Truly a film best viewed “cold,” as suggested by director Joon Ho during an interview on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Without giving too much away, Parasite explores the implications of greed and class discrimination as an interdependent relationship between a wealthy and impoverished family slowly forms. If you haven’t already seen it, now's the time to stream it on Crave.[video_embed id='1896021']RELATED: Ben Mulroney impresses Bong Joon Ho with his Korean[/video_embed]

Ramy

The pressure is on to deliver again, as Ramy Youssef returns for the sophomore season of his self-titled and self-reflective comedy dramedy, Ramy. After gaining some much-deserved mainstream notoriety, including a Best TV Musical or Comedy win at the Golden Globes, Season 2 looks to build on what made the first season a hit. Much in the same tone as Donald Glover’s Atlanta and set in New Jersey, the series follows a dramatized version of comedian Ramy Youssef’s spiritual journey, as he grows increasingly torn between his religious beliefs and his desire to party, drink and hook-up, as a 20-something Muslim man. Joining Ramy’s diverse cast this season is Oscar winner Mahershala Ali and former adult film star Mia Khalifa, and returning faces like Succession’s Hiam Abbass, disability advocate and stand-up comedian Stephen Way and Bahrain actress May Calamawy. Stream the entire second season of Ramy on STARZ today.

Love Life

HBO Max titles have landed on Crave and leading the influx of new original series is Anna Kendrick’s coming of age romance-comedy anthology, Love Life. Following the ups and downs of 20-something year old Darby Carter, including her one-night stands, situation-ships, long-term relationships, heartbreaks, rebounds and ghosting, Love Life looks to depicts the many stages of love a person goes through before ultimately finding that special somebody. The series even comes with an authoritative narrator in veteran British actress Lesley Manville. Kendrick leads the cast and acts as executive producer, with help from Zoë Chao, Peter Vack and Sasha Compère. You can catch the first three episodes of Love Life on Crave today with new episodes dropping every Wednesday.
