- "The It List" is Yahoo's weekly look at the best in pop culture. With the coronavirus pandemic in mind, here are our picks for the week of November 23. If you're craving a mile-high murder mystery, "The Flight Attendant" is arriving on HBO Max. Kaley Cuoco stars as the title character who, after a long boozy night in Bangkok, wakes up next to a dead man. It's like "The Hangover," but with murder.

- Why'd you clean it up?

- I -- I don't know.

- OK, uh.

- As if, with everything else going on in the world, we need another reason to not get on a plane.

- Do not do anything stupid.

- Did you bring me to 3C's funeral?

- Miley Cyrus is back with her seventh album, titled "Plastic Hearts." The singer recently dropped the new music video for her second single, "Prisoner," which features Dua Lipa. It's been three years since Miley's last album, and in the interim, she's dealt with her divorce from Liam Hemsworth and vocal cord surgery. "Plastic Hearts" also includes two songs with throwback features from 80s icons, one with vocals from Billy Idol, and another with Joan Jett.

And just like cold weather is seasonal to this time of year, so are fresh rom-com releases. "Happiest Season" is the latest entry to the genre, but arrives with an LGBTQ twist.

- Hi!

- I didn't tell my parents I'm gay.

- So who do they think I am?

- This is Harper's orphan friend, Abby.

- Yes, of course. There, there.

- You're so brave.

- Kristen Stewart and Mackenzie Davis play the couple, and as you can imagine, hijinks ensue as they attempt to hide their relationship. Rounding out the cast is Alison Brie, who plays a sister, and Aubrey Plaza, who plays an ex. And fresh off his Emmy sweep for "Schitt's Creek," Dan Levy co-stars as a best friend.

- Are you the ex-boyfriend?

- Yes, I am very sexually attracted to her. Mmm. A female. I nailed that and she is fabulous.

- Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving, and come back next week to check out Yahoo's "It List."
