If you’re like me, then you can’t choose just one streaming outlet—you need ‘em all. And with this many subscriptions, the decision to choose what to watch each weekend can be…well, daunting.
For me, it helps to have everything written out. There are lots of random movies and TV shows that hit the streaming sphere each weekend, but for this article, I’m searched out all the best and most enticing options available. These are the shows and movies that people have been talking about and will continue to drive conversation.
Below, you’ll find the best options on the major streaming outlets this weekend. Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime—they’re all included. Hopefully you find something that sparks your interest.
Triangle of Sadness – Hulu
Without a doubt, the most exciting new option this weekend is Triangle of Sadness. Thanks to Hulu, this Oscar-nominated film has now become one of the few Best Picture nominees available to streaming subscribers. The movie centers on a couple that’s invited to a luxury cruise filled with very wealthy people who are completely out of touch with society.
Chris Rock: Selective Outrage – Netflix
Netflix has dabbled in some experimental ideas as of late, including games and interactive TV shows. But this weekend marks a new first: Netflix’s first stab at a live stand-up special. And of course, they’ve tapped the biggest name in stand-up: Chris Rock. You don’t want to miss this one.
Daisy Jones & The Six (Season 1) – Amazon Prime
If you’re a fan of musical biopics, then this Amazon series is for you. Mind you, this isn’t a real story, as the tale of the band Daisy Jones & The Six is purely fiction. But the trailer signals all the drama you’d expect from a musical troupe’s story. The show is based on the best-selling book by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
House Party – HBO Max
House Party is a classic ‘90s comedy. And given all the nostalgic remakes happening these days, an update of this beloved gem was inevitable. The film stars Jacob Latimore and D.C. Young Fly, but also promises appearances from the likes of LeBron James, Scott Mescudi (aka Kid Cudi) and Snoop Dogg.
Waco: The Aftermath (Season 1) – Paramount+
If there’s anybody in Hollywood that can always be relied upon for a great performance, it’s Michael Shannon. Partnered with other great actors like Giovanni Ribisi and Gary Cole, this sequel to the Waco miniseries explores the tragic events of the Waco siege at Mount Carmel.
Jurassic World – Peacock
Of course there are always lots of new movies and shows to choose from each weekend. But sometimes you just want to kick back with something familiar. The biggest option in that department this weekend is Jurassic World. The update to the Jurassic Park franchise follows the Jurassic World luxury resort as things get out of control with the park’s genetically engineered dinosaurs.
