High School Musical: The Musical: The Series
This tongue-in-cheek mockumentary follows a group of students who attend the same high school where the High School Musical trilogy was filmed, and who want to put on a stage production of the films. The series was a hit with US audiences, and has already been renewed for season two.

The World According to Jeff Goldblum
Why not let Jeff tell you about his documentary series himself? He said: "The premise of the show is, because it’s the world according to Jeff Goldblum, it’s me with all the information and experience that my life has entailed up til this point now plopping me I go the world of and exploration of one thing or another. It’s not as if I do some extra homework/research/bone up on it so that I tend to know something about it and then tell you about it. No, it’s not like that." In the show, Jeremy looks at different things that interest in, and speaks to experts on the subject to learn more.

Anna Kendrick stars as Santa's daughter, who wants to do something important about Christmas like her brother Nick, who is meant to be taking over from their father but is doing a holiday job. The synopsis reads: "When Nick is about to crumble like a gingerbread cookie from all the pressure, Noelle suggests he take a break and get away to clear his head...but then he doesn't return."
