Nation of Two by Vance Joy

If the baby­-faced Aussie behind 2014’s viral ditty “Riptide” was feeling pressure when it came to cutting his second LP, it doesn’t show. Rather than chasing hits, Joy focused on crafting piercing vignettes of young love and emotional restlessness — and the results absolutely thrill.

UnREAL

Un Real S3

Everlasting’s gender­-flipped experiment goes off the rails fast—the “Suitress” actually wants true love!—but at least UnREAL has returned to its scathingly satirical roots with season 3. Consider it a positive first impres­sion. (Lifetime, Mondays, 10 p.m.)

There’s no shortage of superhero movies out there, but none is as imaginative or boundary-pushing as Black Panther (Feb. 16). Marvel and director Ryan Coogler give us beautiful people, costumes, landscapes, and cityscapes—plus provocative heroes and villains—in a story that will make you wish Wakanda were a real place.
