This weekend’s entertainment offerings are many and varied, with a little bit of comedy, a dash of action and adventure, a sprinkle of mystery and murder, and plenty of horror and sci-fi to keep you diverted on these increasingly balmy spring evenings.Along with new releases, this guide covers currently streaming TV shows, though I’ve had to cross off two titles from the list. Outlander’s series finale dropped last Friday after eight seasons, and The Boys released its final episode this past Wednesday after five seasons. While I didn’t hate either finale, I felt pretty disappointed with both finales and final seasons. You can read my Outlander series finale review here and my series finale review of The Boys here.But even if those were a bit on the disappointing side, there’s still plenty of great TV out there. Right now, my favorite shows are FROM on MGM+, Widow’s Bay on Apple TV and the brand new Netflix series, The Boroughs. I also went to The Mandalorian and Grogu on Thursday and thought it was an absolute blast. You can read all about each of these in the guide below.As always, I’ve scoured the internet for the best TV shows and movies streaming on Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV, Disney+ for you to watch this weekend.
