You can learn more about the aforementioned TV shows and more below, and also feel free to discover the complete list of web series at our Disney+ Hotstar, and Netflix.

Dhootha 6so4v

When: December 1
Where: Amazon Prime Video

Sagar Varma (Naga Chaitanya) is a respected journalist, bold enough to openly call out faltering politician and member of law enforcement, and bearing an almost boastful, rational outlook on life. All that changes when he stumbles upon a weird newspaper crossword puzzle that predicts a car accident death, shaking him to his core. Thinking that it's a cruel, elaborate prank from one of his industry rivals Charles (Srikant Murali), he heads over to be greeted with a chilling sight of the individual dying by suicide, with their body dropping onto a pile of similarly bizarre newspaper clippings. Varma is suspected of murder, putting him at a crossroads with a local police officer D Kranthi Shenoy (Parvathy Thiruvothu), culminating in a generations-spanning investigation with paranormal connections.

The eight-episode-long Ponniyin Selvan: I).

All episodes of Dhootha are now streaming on Amazon Prime Video.

Yu Yu Hakusho 2n5z5e

When: December 14
Where: Netflix

Based on the acclaimed manga by Yoshihiro Togashi — who also created Hunter x Hunter — Yu Yu Hakusho follows Yusuke Urameshi (Takumi Kitamura), who's built himself a reputation as a spoiled delinquent, getting into fights and arguing with his teachers daily. That is until one fateful afternoon where, for once, he commits a selfless act, saving a little kid's life and dying in the process. With no place for him in heaven or hell — thanks to his absurd disposition — Koenma, the ruler of the Spirit World offers Yusuke a chance at redemption in exchange for protecting the living world from psychic spirits.

You see, the gap between the human and demon realms has started to widen mysteriously, causing demonic Yokai to creep in and devour innocent lives. Despite the mystique, Koenma believes that human intrusion is at the heart of this effect and as such, hires Yusuke as an Underworld Detective to uncover an intertwining mystery with a small group of psychics. Having mastered firing bullet-like spirit blasts, he's thrust into intense battles, including one against the Toguro brothers, siblings who decided to sacrifice humanity in exchange for demonic powers. The Younger Tohuro is a non-ageing muscly fighter, while the older, sadistic one rides on his shoulder, manipulating his organic structure to fit the right circumstances.

Shô Tsukikawa, who directed some Yu Yu Hakusho episodes claims that the series was filmed simultaneously using 170 cameras that would record the actors from 360 degrees, so he could pick the best angles, later in the editing room. That sounds quite overwhelming, though I'm mostly worried about how this five-episode series will be condensing both the world-building and the ‘Dark Tournament' arc, which took nearly 70 episodes to capture in the 2002 anime.

All episodes of the Yu Yu Hakusho live-action series will be out December 14 on Netflix.

Reacher season 2 1f2i5v

When: December 15
Where: Amazon Prime Video

Having succumbed back to his drifter lifestyle, former military investigator Jack Reacher (Alan Ritchson) receives a cryptic message via a deposit to his bank — $1,030, which translates to the police code 10-30, indicating that another officer is requesting urgent help. The sender is s Neagley (Maria Sten), the private investigator who's been looking into the suspicious murders of the old ‘Special Investigations' team which Reacher was once part of. Some of them were tortured for undisclosed intel, another was tossed off from a helicopter, and now clearly, the last remaining are the next targets. Reunited with his ex-teammates, the family man David O'Donnell (Shaun Sipos) and an old fling Karla Dixon (Serinda Swan), Reacher must connect the dots and unravel the larger conspiracy surrounding their deaths.

Only one problem though: Reacher is rather violent in his approach, leaving a trail of countless injured bodies, leading to his team's whereabouts — it's something he takes pride in, and the team has a hard time keeping him in control.
