This Way Up desrves a spot on your crowded viewing list
This Way Up, which premieres on Hulu on August 21, is a stellar example of one of the challenges in what we've come to know as "peak TV": It doesn't have a star who's famous in the United States, it doesn't have a particularly high concept, and at first glance, there are other shows superficially similar to it. But it's very good, and it's warm and clever, and it will -- or would -- precisely hit the spot for a lot of people, if only they can find it.
