The best new shows to stream on Netflix, Hulu, Max (HBO), and more

Action and comedy are the genres of choice this weekend among the best new shows to stream. And if you want the former, then Prime Video’s Like a Dragon: Yakuza is going to be the series to watch. For comedy lovers, Hulu is the exclusive streaming home for FX’s What We Do in the Shadows, which is back for its sixth and final season. Similarly, Star Trek: Lower Decks, an animated sci-fi comedy, is also wrapping up with its fifth season.

Drama lovers can still catch up on Apple TV+ dramedy Shrinking and Netflix’s The Lincoln Lawyer, and there’s no shortage of new shows to binge as we head into the final weekend of October.

You can find all of the rest of the best new shows to stream below. Remember to check back next week, as we update this list every Friday to give you the top choices for your next TV night.

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

Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Max, Disney+, Paramount+, Peacock, and Apple TV+ all have one thing in common: They’re more expensive than they used to be! We can live with higher rates as long as new shows keep coming, but it’s always a good idea to consider signing up for the ad-supported tiers, which are worth it if you can sit through a few commercials.
