Netflix has a new documentary series this week called The Kings of Tupelo: A Southern Crime Saga, which promises to tell a bizarre story.

The series is about a small-town feud in Mississippi which escalated to dramatic proportions: the series' synopsis promises presidential assassination attempts, black-market body part trading and, scariest of all, Elvis impersonators.

Paris & Nicole: The Encore — Peacock

Reality stars Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie unite in their new reality series The Encore, decades after they became big together in The Simple Life.

In The Encore, the two women will produce an opera based on a ditty that they wrote in The Simple Life "Sanasa". This probably means very little to TV viewers who aren't familiar with Hilton & Richie's past.
