Oct 16, 2026 12:48 AM

Several of the major streamers have treated the last weekend of March as an excuse to tread water while waiting for April to arrive next week. Thats why were grateful to Hulu, Disney+, and even Paramount+ with Showtime for bucking that trend and making sure we still have new shows heading into the weekend.

This weeks notable additions include A Gentlemen in Moscow, We Were the Lucky Ones, and Renegade Nell. Other recent shows such as Disney+s X-Men 97 are continuing weekly, while Netflixs 3 Body Problem has its entire first season ready to stream right now.

Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Max, Disney+, Paramount+, Peacock, and Apple TV+ have had a very good month for original shows. But if youre subscribing to all of those streamers, it can be very expensive. If youre looking to save some money on your streaming bill, consider using the ad-supported tiers, which are worth it if you can sit through a few commercials. In the meantime, heres our weekly roundup of the best new shows to stream.

Related When youre done here, check out the best new movies to stream this week, as well as the best shows on Netflix, best shows on Hulu, best shows on Amazon Prime Video, and best shows on Disney+.

Even Magneto, the teams greatest foe, is attempting to follow Xaviers legacy and create a better world for mutants and humans alike. However, there are storm clouds on the horizon as the X-Men are blindsided by tragedy and by a surprising return that calls the identity of one of their own into question.

7.8/10 tv-pg 3 Seasons Genre Animation, Action Adventure, Sci-Fi Fantasy Cast Dee Bradley Baker, Michelle Ang Created by Dave Filoni watch on Disney+ watch on Disney+ Theres a tendency for some fans to overlook the various Star Wars animated series as being inconsequential or kids stuff. Nothing could be further from the truth, especially in Star Wars: The Bad Batch. The premiere of the third and final season strikes a somber chord and actually lets the audience empathize with the plight of the youngest clone, Omega (Michelle Ang), as she is forced to serve the Empire at their secret cloning facility.

Omegas clone brothers Hunter, Wrecker, and Echo (all of whom are voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) arent willing to abandon her to the Empire. However, the team doesnt have many allies left, and finding Omega may be one of the last missions that they ever embark on.
