What To Watch This Weekend: Stream Our Top 7 TV and Movie Picks

“28 Years Late: The Bone Temple” | VOD | Horror

Movie, Tuesday, Feb. 17: In Nia DaCosta’s sequel to “28 Years Later,” we catch up with Spike (Alfie Williams) and discover what’s up with The Jimmys, the gang of teens that save the day at the end of the film. The sequel also follows the odd Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) as he leans into his “eccentric-creepy-doctor” era, and we see more of the terrifying Alpha, who clearly has too much main-character energy (among other thing). Finally, we get reacquainted with an old friend from the original “28 Days Later.” Hmmm . . . Who could it be?

“56 Days” | Prime Video | Drama

Series premiere, Wednesday, Feb. 18: We’ve all been there, in a new relationship that seems perfect until the baggage appears. In this adaptation of Catherine Ryan Howard’s novel, Oliver (Avan Jogia) and Ciara (Dove Cameron) are together for the titular period when homicide investigators find a savaged, decomposing body in Oliver’s apartment. Who’s the killer? 56 Days lays it out in one day, spread across the whole series, with plenty of expository flashbacks. Note: The show’s creators really want you to know they’ve removed the COVID lockdown element of Howard’s “sexy, propulsive thriller.” But you still gotta mask up to watch this (j/k). Binge all eight episodes starting today.

“The Night Agent” | Netflix | Drama, thriller

Season 3 premiere, Thursday, Feb. 19: Hey, another book adaptation! This time it’s Matthew Quirk’s novel of the same name. We’re now in the third season of this buzzy Netflix show starring Gabriel Basso (“A House Full of Dynamite”) as FBI agent Peter Sutherland. This time, Sutherland’s starts out chasing a rogue Treasury agent (callback to Season 2) and winds up uncovering a dark money network, dodging assassins, and crossing paths with a—gasp!—”relentless journalist whose pursuit of the truth puts them both squarely in the crosshairs.” All 10 Season 3 episodes drop today.

“Strip Law” | Netflix | Adult animation, comedy

Series premiere, Friday, Feb. 20: Meet hapless Las Vegas attorney Lincoln Gumb (Adam Scott), the new cartoon lawyer on the block, joining the likes of Harvey Birdman, Lionel Hutz, and Hyperchicken. The thing is, Gumb kinda sucks at his job—he tends to lose cases ’cause he’s too boring for Vegas courtrooms. To add some excitement to his cases, Gumb joins forces with magician Sheila Flambé (Janelle James) and hilarity ensues. The 10-episode series is created by Cullen Crawford (“Paradise P.D.,” “Star Trek: Lower Decks”).

“Murder in Glitterball City” | HBO, HBO Max | Documentary, true crime

Limited series premiere, Thursday, Feb. 19, 8 p.m. ET: Let’s keep the book love flowin’. The title makes this two-part documentary sound like a pulp novel. It’s really semi-spooky true crime inspired by David Dominé’s non-fiction book “A Dark Room in Glitter Ball City.” The story sounds similar to “56 Days:” a dead body is discovered in the bowels of a Victorian mansion in a famously haunted Louisville, Kentucky neighborhood. Two romantic partners, Joey Banis and Jeffrey Mundt, accuse each other of murder, and the truth comes out in two separate murder trials and interviews with friends, neighbors, cops, lawyers, and Dominé himself. Both parts air live, back-to-back, tonight on HBO and stream on HBO Max.

“Shoresy” | Hulu | Comedy

Season 5 premiere, Saturday, Feb. 21: Jared Keeso’s “Letterkenny” spinoff “Shoresy” is the “domestic light beer” of TV: lowbrow, unrefined, and dangerously addictive. In Season 5, the Bulldogs show up ready to fight with a cast as chaotic as the chirps. It’s brilliantly stupid and genuinely moving—a binge-able triumph on Hulu that, thankfully, requires zero homework to enjoy. But still check out all 12 seasons of “Letterkenny”—it’s well worth the steep-ish learning curve (try subtitles for the first few episodes).

“Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair” (2026) | Action, drama

“Kill Bill” was originally meant to be a single, significantly bloodier, four-hour movie. Now Quentin Tarantino’s original vision is out there for our slobbery consumption. It’s not only in one piece; it has things like new or extended scenes, a longer anime sequence, and the Crazy 88 fight in glorious full color—mostly red. You can rent “Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair” from video-on-demand (VOD) outlets like Prime Video, Google Movies & TV, and Fandango at Home (formerly VUDU) as of Tuesday, Feb. 17.
