Put ‘Shoresy’ and a Netflix documentary about the New Yorker magazine on your must-see list

Here’s what the Star’s culture team is loving this week.

TV: ‘Shoresy’

You can join the masses and stream American football games on Christmas Day, or you can break away and watch a Canadian TV comedy that’s all about hockey. Creator Jared Keeso, renowned for co-creating and starring in “Letterkenny,” has poured his own love of the sport into “Shoresy,” in which he stars as the titular senior AAA player. The first two episodes of Season 5 drop on Crave Christmas Day, with new ones on subsequent Thursdays. At the end of Season 4, Shoresy had to hang up his skates as a member of the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs but finally agreed to coach the team. Look past the profanity and sex jokes and you’ll find a show about friendship, teamwork and integrity. — Debra Yeo

Exhibition: ‘At Home in Toronto’

This weekend, I’m looking forward to checking out “At Home in Toronto,” which runs until Jan. 4 at the Market Gallery, an intimate space atop the St. Lawrence Market (95 Front St. E.) that once served as the Toronto’s first purpose-built city council chambers. The items on display are drawn from the city’s collections and include a diverse array of family objects and heirlooms that tell the story of Toronto’s history, including a First World War soldier’s ticket to return home and artwork by Canadian and local artists. — Joshua Chong

Music: Cameron Winter at Carnegie Hall

This year, as a culture, we’ve broken our necks diving headfirst into internet irony — horrified at the prospect of being perceived as earnest. Then comes Geese frontman Cameron Winter’s Carnegie Hall Dec. 11 performance of his solo album, “Heavy Metal” (audio and video clips can be found on YouTube, TikTok and elsewhere). With lyrics so raw they might as well be maggot food, Winter showed his hand to the historic venue’s audience. Whether the choice to place the Steinway piano with the performer’s back to the crowd was his own or that of directors Paul Thomas Anderson and Benny Safdie, who filmed the show, the result brought the sincerity of Winter’s “Heavy Metal” into blinding focus. — Savannah Ridley

Documentary: ‘The New Yorker at 100’

Though at times it may feel as if this Netflix hagiography, from executive producer Judd Apatow, could have come straight from the PR department at publisher Condé Nast, this love letter to one of history’s greatest magazines is an informative delight, cleverly mixing fly-on-the-wall office footage during the 2024 presidential election with talking-head interviews, vignettes on illustrious contributors (like John Hersey, James Baldwin and Roz Chast) and historical tidbits (featuring narration by Julianne Moore). — Doug Brod
