May is a month for reconnecting outside world, when humans in colder climates can finally emerge from their cozy homes and enjoy the theoretically nicer weather. Unfortunately, that nicer weather also tends to attract bugs, noisy children, and other nuisances commonly associated with being outside. Thankfully, HBO and its HBO Now service have come up with a compelling reason for people to stay indoors this May by making all four seasons of the beloved sketch comedy series Mr. Show available to stream for the first time starting on May 1.

If Mr. Show is a little too grounded and straightforward for you, though, HBO Now will also be getting Jupiter Ascending, the sci-fi epic where Mila Kunis is a space princess and Channing Tatum is a dog man, as well as The Man From U.N.C.L.E., a movie where a British guy plays an American guy and an American guy plays a Russian guy. Bryan Cranston’s Lyndon Johnson movie, All The Way, will also make its debut, but it’s probably not as weird as Jupiter Ascending.
