    4. Also on Dickinson, Emily and Sue shared this truly remarkable moment at a party, and I've been thinking about Hailee Steinfeld and Ella Hunt's chemistry all week because of it.

    Now, 25 years later, Assane is trying to avenge his father by using Arsène Lupin, Gentleman Burglar as inspiration. Omar Sy gives an amazing performance as Assane in every single episode of this riveting series.

    6. On Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist, Max and Zoey had sex for the first time, and Zoey decided to duet Max's heartsong that he was singing — this moment was adorable and made me emotional.

    I literally went from laughing to crying in five seconds flat.

    7. Everyone Is Doing Great started streaming on Hulu. Written and starring James Lafferty and Stephen Colletti, this show follows Jeremy and Seth, two BFFs who used to star on a vampire teen TV series together.

    Now, five years after their TV series ended, both of them struggle to find new acting jobs and shed their iconic characters.

    8. Also on Everyone Is Doing Great, if you're a massive One Tree Hill fan, like me, there's an episode where Jeremy and Seth are in Wilmington, North Carolina, and it's so great.
