When you’re done here, check out the best new movies to stream this week, as well as the best shows on Netflix, the best shows on Hulu, the best new shows on Max, the best shows on Amazon Prime Video, and the best shows on Disney+.
Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Max, Disney+, Paramount+, Peacock, and Apple TV+ all have one thing in common: They’re more expensive than they used to be. We can live with higher rates as long as new shows keep coming, but it’s always a good idea to consider signing up for the ad-supported tiers, which are worth it if you can sit through a few commercials.

Fubar (2023)
50%
6.5/10Luke nor Emma knew each other’s CIA affiliation until they worked together on a mission. After succeeding, Luke now works with Emma as a father-daughter espionage duo. For Luke’s next mission, he faces his toughest competitor yet — Greta Nelso (Carrie-Anne Moss), a German spy and, more importantly, Luke’s ex.
Ginny & Georgia (2021)

7.5/10Ginny & Georgia returns for season 3 after a magical wedding ends on a shocking note. During the season 2 finale, Georgia (Brianne Howey) is arrested for the murder of Tom Fuller, the husband of Cynthia Fuller (Sabrina Grdevich). Georgia committed the murder, but it was a mercy kill since Tom was struggling in hospice.
What Georgia doesn’t know is that her son, Austin (Diesel La Torraca), witnessed his mother smother Tom to death. Georgia now finds herself on trial for murder in the third season.

7.2/10Desperate for a lifeline, Pryce discovers Santi (Peter Dager), a phenomenal teenage golfer who quit after his father left. Pryce views Santi as his golden ticket, so he forces his way into being his coach and caddy. Stick has some golf scenes, but it focuses more on familial relationships and how we cope with grief.
Murderbot (2025)
The Northman‘s Alexander Skarsgård headlines Murderbot as an advanced security android who is perhaps a bit too human. Unlike other androids, Muderbot has developed sentience as well as a taste for binge-watching the latest TV programs at faster speeds than humans can comprehend.
Regardless, Murderbot correctly feels the need to hide any evidence of free will from the boring humans that need protection and assistance. Thus, people are the bane of Murderbot’s existence and also the source of potential insights into what makes a being truly human.
Your Friends & Neighbors (2025)
Mad Men‘s Jon Hamm stars in Your Friends & Neighbors as Andrew “Coop” Cooper, a man who used to be extremely wealthy thanks to his high-powered job as a hedge fund manager. But once Coop loses that job, he can’t seem to find anything comparable. Rather than let his family slip into economic discomfort, Coop discovers he has a talent for stealing from their affluent neighbors.
One of those neighbors is Samantha “Sam” Levitt (Olivia Munn), the best friend of Coop’s ex-wife, Mel (Amanda Peet). Sam and Coop have casual sexual flings on the side even though she wants more out of the relationship. And if she discovers how he’s been stealing for a living, then it’s probably going to complicate things even further.
Amazon Prime Video
The Better Sister (2025)
56%
6.8/10Jessica Biel’s Chloe Taylor is the title character of The Better Sister, but she can’t be better without her sibling, Nicky Macintosh (Elizabeth Banks). Neither of the sisters are particularly close when this miniseries begins, and there are a lot of old emotional wounds between them. But when Chloe’s husband, Adam (Corey Stoll), is found dead, his murder brings Nicky back into Chloe’s orbit. There’s some very messed up history between Chloe, Nicky, and Adam, as well as Chloe and Adam’s son, Ethan (Maxwell Acee Donovan). The police seem to think Ethan killed his father, but there may more to the case that only the sisters know for sure. How far they’re willing to go to prevent Ethan from facing murder charges remains to be seen.
Motorheads (2025)
58%
7.3/10Ryan Phillippe gets top billing in Motorheads, but this teenage drama largely focuses on his family. Logan Maddox (Phillippe) is an ex-NASCAR driver who now runs his own auto body shop in his hometown, Ironwood, Pennsylvania. Logan has also been good enough to welcome his niece, Caitlyn (Melissa Collazo), and his nephew, Zac (Michael Cimino), into his life after their mother, Samantha (Nathalie Kelley), moves the family back home.
When both Zac and Caitlyn make an enemy out of Harris (Josh Macqueen) and his fellow rich kids, they decide that the only way to take down this spoiled street racer is by restoring a vintage Charger that belonged to their father, Christian Maddox (Deacon Phillippe). To do that, they need Logan’s help, and he’s not wild about the idea to send the kids down the same road as their father.
Étoile (2025)
69%
7.3/10The audience for Étoile may be limited given the subject matter, but that’s part of the premise that Gilmore Girls and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel creators Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino came up with for the show.
Jack McMillan (Luke Kirby) the director of New York’s Metropolitan Ballet Theater and his counterpart at the Le Ballet National in Paris, Genevieve Lavigne (Charlotte Gainsbourg), are facing a similar dilemma. Audience erosion means that their prestigious ballet programs are in danger of dying. To save their respective programs, Jack and Genevive agree to swap their top stars in a yearlong experiment to turn their fortunes around. The show’s narrative is split between New York and France as both institutions explore some culture shock.
Hulu
Adults (2025)
65%
6.0/10Imagine if Friends was Gen Z and featured the entire cast in the same home. It wouldn’t be entirely like FX’s Adults, but the influence of the older show is there. The primary cast includes Samir (Malik Elassal), a guy who has lived at the same home most of his life. The only difference now is that his friends, Billie (Lucy Freyer), Anton (Owen Thiele), and Issa (Amita Rao) have moved in with him. And so has Paul Baker (Jack Innanen), Issa’s boyfriend . There’s a bizarre quality to some of the stories that unfold that resembles FX’s long-running It’s Always Funny in Philadelphia. And the show isn’t afraid to make the leads unlikable at times. It’s got a long way to go be as good as some of the best Friends clones, but there’s potential here.
Nine Perfect Strangers (2021)
50%
7.0/10The first season of Nine Perfect Strangers was originally intended as a stand-alone miniseries. But it’s back with Nicole Kidman reprising her role as Masha Dmitrichenko, a woman whose ideas about helping and healing people skirt what the law would allow. By season two, Masha is ducking lawsuits and working out of a different wellness facility called Zauberwald.
Some of Masha’s latest clients include grown adults like Peter (Henry Golding) and Imogen (Annie Murphy), who want to patch things up with their respective parents, David (Mark Strong) and Victoria (Christine Baranski). Meanwhile, Wolfie (Maisie Richardson-Sellers) wants Masha’s help getting her girlfriend and musical partner, Tina (King Princess), to embrace music again. These people have come from disparate backgrounds because they believe the hype around Masha and what she can do for them. But this could all turn very ugly if Masha pulls some of her old tricks on the assembled guests.
Max (formerly HBO and HBO Max)
And Just Like That… (2021)
66%
5.7/10HBO and Max’s Sex and the City sequel series, And Just Like That… is back for its third season with three out of the four leading ladies from the original show. But most of the focus is always going to be on Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker). Last season, she and Aidan Shaw (John Corbett) ended their relationship when he moved away to be more present in the lives of his children. In season 3, Carrie and Aidan are trying to make a long distance relationship work, much to the annoyance of Carrie’s friend, Anthony Marentino (Mario Cantone). Meanwhile, Miranda Hobbes (Cynthia Nixon) has a potential new lover with a very annoying habit. There’s only one episode from season 3 that’s out so far, but that’s not quite enough to predict what’s coming next.
Duster (2025)
72%
0.1/10There aren’t many shows like Duster, which drops viewers into the early ’70s and puts the spotlight on Nina Hayes (Rachel Hilson), the first Black woman ever to become an FBI agent. Getting in the door wasn’t enugh for Nina, as she hounds her superiors to let her go after Ezra Saxton (Keith David) and his crime family in the Southwest.
Nina’s way into the investigation is through Saxton’s favorite getaway driver, Jim Ellis (Josh Holloway). Jim’s had a comfortable time working for Saxton, but Nina is able to convince him that his employer’s dark side merits risking his life to help bring him down. Nina and Jim also have to deal with other underworld and law enforcement officials who have their own reasons to derail her investigation. And things are only going to get wilder as Nina looks into Saxton’s latest business venture.
Conan O'Brien Must Go (2024)
77%
8.2/10Since Conan O’Brien is no longer a late night TV talk show host, his awkward brand of humor can no longer be confined to a single country. Conan O’Brien Must Go is a comedic travel show in which O’Brien visits fans that he’s connected to through his audio podcast.
There aren’t a lot of episodes each season, but this year, O’Brien is heading to Spain to meet up with Javier Bardem, and then he’s off to New Zealand to reunite with Taika Waititi. The third episode will send O’Brien to Austria, and who knows where he’ll go from there.
