For September: 10 Movie and TV Picks9 of 10
"American Vandal" | Season 2 Premieres on Netflix, Friday, Sept. 14
Season 1 of the Netflix mock-doc was the best bit of dick-centric content since "Hung." And now, "Vandal" is back, investigating a mysterious "Turd Burglar" whose bowel-busting exploits have terrorized a Catholic high school. Based on the trailer alone, it looks like the brand new case definitely ups the ante — hope you're not squeamish — and still delights in skewering the overwrought style of true-crime serials like "Making a Murderer." But the thing that has me most excited is Season 2's steadfast dedication to one of comedy's oldest adages: "Poop is funny." I'm not gonna argue with that. — James M
