T8 WHATS UP! July 24 - 30, 2022 BY RAYE SMITH TV Media WHAT'S NEW ON NETFLIX "Uncoupled" It's never too late to start fresh, just as series lead Michael (Neil Patrick Harris, "How I Met Your Mother") finds out in the new Netflix series "Uncoupled," pre- miering on the streamer Friday, July 29. Working as a successful New York real estate agent with a close group of friends and a supportive family, Michael's life is everything he could ask for and more. But, when his partner of 17 years, Colin (Tuc Watkins, "One Life to Live"), moves out the night before his 50th birth- day, Michael's perfect life starts to crumble around him. While he learns to confront some of his worst fears — losing the person he thought was his soul mate and being a single gay may en- tering his 50s in the Big Apple — Michael learns how to heal and live life for himself again. Co- created by Emmy winners Jef- frey Richman ("Modern Fami- ly") and Darren Star ("Sex and the City"), this heartfelt comedy is directed by Andrew Fleming ("Emily in Paris").

The remaining seven epi- sodes of this "Pretty Little Liars" spinoff are slated to air Aug. 4, 11 and 18. Twenty years ago, a se- ries of dark and tragic events nearly tore the town of Mill- wood apart.

This new generation of li- ars may be in a new town, but they can't escape their pasts.
