What to binge?

For those who are worried about running out of shows to watch, Jenji Kohan, creator of “Orange Is the New Black,” is now at work on corona content. “Social Distance” will be an anthology show on Netflix using footage from Zoom, nanny cams, video doorbells and other high-tech, screen-equipped devices of the modern home. No word yet on casting.

Another form of entertainment that can be made during a pandemic? Animated shows. Beanie Feldstein will voice the lead in Apple TV’s upcoming version of beloved children’s classic “Harriet the Spy.” Harriet writes down everything in her notebook, but then loses it. Will this low-tech version of misplacing your phone resonate with kids these days?

Nostalgia news

Jennifer Grey is going back to the Borscht Belt.

In a twist on the recent gaffe by President Donald Trump while pronouncing the name of the national park, it turns out that Yosemite Sam, the belligerent gunslinger of cartoon fame, is named Samuel Rosenbaum (mentioned in only one episode, “Daffy Duck Esquire,” which came out in 2013 as part of “The Looney Tunes Show”). Friz Freleng, who created Yosemite Sam back in 1944, allegedly modeled the feisty character with the droopy red beard after himself in both looks and temperament. Yosemite Sam was voiced by Mel Blanc from the 1940s through the ’80s.
