- Veronica Mars: The fourth season of the series was uploaded to Hulu a week early last week. We were actually going to recommend it for this week with the idea that it would have been a new season, but since Hulu uploaded it a week early…well, we’re still going to recommend it because it is a new season of the show and something that could be binge-worthy TV for some of you.
