Our Kind of People (Fox)
In the sudsy Lee Daniels drama Our Kind of People, set in a Martha’s Vineyard enclave that’s become a real-life playground for the Black elite, Yaya DaCosta (Chicago Med) plays a new arrival who threatens the old guard.
Impeachment: American Crime Story (FX)
Impeachment: American Crime Story, arriving September 7, is the next chapter in Ryan Murphy’s ripped-from-the-headlines anthology series.

Maid (Netflix)
Margaret Qualley (The Leftovers) stars in Maid, inspired by Stephanie Land’s bestselling memoir recounting her fight for survival below the poverty line as a single mom working for a cleaning service. Qualley’s own mother, Andie MacDowell, costars.
Curse of the Chippendales (Discovery+)
