I hope you’re hungry, because the world’s leading streaming services have created a delicious tutorial for new movies and original TV shows this weekend.
Of course, from the return of the incredibly popular Netflix TV Original and Marvel’s first project of the year, to a new Prime Video comedy and more, besides, this week’s offerings are truly a feast for the eyes. So, read on to see what we’ve picked as the best of the streaming team for the last weekend of January 2026. – Tom Power, senior entertainment journalist
Bridgerton season 4 episode 1 (Netflix)
Watch it open
Bridgerton or A Cinderella story? In part 1 of Bridgerton season 4, the two meet as we follow the budding romance between Benedict (Luke Thompson) and maid Sophie (Yerin Ha). Sophie sneaks into the masked ball and the two unexpectedly kiss, Sophie leaving only the glove to point to her.
Our unfortunate maid leads our cast of new characters in season 4, with Sophie working for the Penwoods – a family with more than one secret. It’s Violet (Ruth Gemmell) who really sings this season, though, thanks to a slightly heated battle with Lord Anderson (Daniel Francis). Read more about that in my life Bridgerton season 4 part 1 review. – Jasmine Valentine, entertainment reporter
Wonder Man (Disney+)
Watch it open
Lights, camera and… action! Wonder Manthe first Marvel TV show of 2026, has finally debuted on Disney+ — and it’s a total doozy.
Starring Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Ben Kingsley, the Marvel Phase 6 TV show is not your typical MCU offering. My review of the Wonder Man explains why in detail, but rest assured, if you’re tired of superhero movies and TV series all doing the same thing, this is a great throwback to the comic book player that’s holding fast to the arrival.

The Wrecking Crew (Main Video)
Watch it open
Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista share The Wrecking Crewa buddy cop movie where they play brothers trying to solve the mystery of their father’s murder in Hawaii.
As a loose cannon cop and a Navy SEAL respectively, they have different approaches to things, but can resolve their differences to try and get justice for their father. Something tells me they won’t be good about it either.
With a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 79%, this new Prime Video film is a fun and action-packed introduction that will make for a perfect weekend watch if you’re looking for gripping fight scenes, mystery, and lots of laughs. – Lucy Buglass, senior entertainment writer
The Shrink season 3 (Apple TV)
Watch it open
It’s time to return to Dr. Paul Rhoades (Harrison Ford) and therapist Jimmy Laird (Jason Segel), who are ready and waiting on the couch for your return. It is decreasing season 3.
There’s only one episode so far of the returning Apple TV favorite, but it’s kicking off the new season with a bang. Still grieving the death of his wife, Jimmy has a lot of work to do as he tries to move forward with his life. Paul, on the other hand, is experiencing a very different change, as his Parkinson’s continues to worsen.
Jimmy’s daughter Alice (Lukita Maxwell) and her partner Gaby (Jessica Williams) and Doctor Julie Baram (Wendie Malick) all return to the Apple TV series, along with some interesting new characters, including a patient named Gerry (Michael J. Fox) and Jimmy’s father (Jeff Daniels). – Amelia Schwanke, senior entertainment editor
If I Had Legs, I’d Kick You (HBO Max)
It’s been over a year If I Had Legs I’d Kick You premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and, while UK audiences are still waiting for its cinema release (boo), US viewers can finally stream the A24 hit on HBO Max. Sadly, Australians will have to wait a little longer to watch it at home.
Described as a parent’s fever dream, the film may be billed as a dark comedy, but it feels closer to a waking nightmare. Rose Byrne plays a depressed mother who cares for her sick daughter without the support of her husband, while also dealing with a missing person and a hostile therapist. Talk about a pressure-cooker setup!
Byrne’s acceptance speech for winning the ‘Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical’ award at this year’s Golden Globes was one of the highlights of the event, which is why I’m bringing up her Oscar win – let’s just hope her husband doesn’t miss the event, for yet another reptilian show…– AS
School Spirits season 3 (Paramount+)
We’re spoiled for choice when it comes to adult drama, with Tell me a lie season 3 again School Spirits Season 3 is now airing simultaneously. The latter ended with a shocking final cliffhanger, with Maddie (Peyton List) returning to her body, while best friend Simon (Kristian Ventura) transitioned into the afterlife.
Things are on the upswing from the get-go, as the Paramount+ show’s third season introduces a new character to district superintendent Dr. Deborah Hunter-Price (Jennifer Tilly). If you listen closely, you’ll even see singer Lizzy McAlpine’s acting debut in the early flashbacks, too. – JV
Take That (Netflix)
Watch it open
As one of the UK’s most popular pop groups, I was one of the millions who attended Take That’s ‘Progress’. reunion tour in 2011, a landmark event as it marked the first time that all five members performed together after Robbie Williams’ unceremonious exit.
As big fans will know all too well, there have been many ups and downs for the boy band, and this three-part Netflix series tells the “untold story” of that journey, with never-before-seen archival footage that chronicles the ups, downs, and their record-breaking reunion. It is already the # 2 Netflix series in the UK, and, apparently Take That fans do not show, well, any patience when it comes to streaming all three installments. – LB
