Premieres Wednesday:
Just One Look — In their continuing quest to prove that they can do Harlan Coben stories just as well as us or the French, Poland sends a series adaptation of the wildly prolific author’s novel about a family photo that unlocks a world of secrets. OK, now we need to find another Coben show of our own to work up, or we risk running a trade deficit. (Netflix)
Medusa — A Colombian woman who’s struggling to maintain control of her family’s business discovers that someone is trying to assassinate her. Once again, we should all feel relieved that Dan Newlin is on the case. Because if the hit is a success, she may be entitled to compensation. (Netflix)
Premieres Thursday:
Beauty in Black — As Season 1 of the Tyler Perry potboiler enters the home stretch, Kimmie is dealing with the consequences of having hit a fellow stripper with her car. The poor girl: She got racked up by the one lap dancer who isn’t a moonlighting med student. (Netflix)
Deli Boys — Two Pakistani-American brothers get a very different inheritance than the one they were hoping for when they learn their father’s convenience-store business was a front for the mob. Guess they never wondered why he kept saying “There’s always money in the expired-hot-dog stand.” (Hulu)
Dylan’s Playtime Adventures — Canada sends us an animated series about a pup who takes on a different career in every episode, from growing plants to delivering pizza. How nice of them to remind us we’re going to need to cultivate some serious adaptive skills when this tariff thing shakes out. (Max)
For the Win: NWSL — A four-episode docuseries follows all the excitement of the 2024 National Women’s Soccer League season. Who will claim the coveted championship title before the entire thing gets scuttled as a DEI initiative? (Prime Video)
Jellystone — The second half of Season 3 begins with a massive crossover between the Hanna-Barbera stars and icons of Cartoon Network that was already shown last month on the latter channel. Way to push that essential exclusive content, WBD! (Max)
Larissa: The Other Side of Anitta — Brazilian singing star Anitta lowers the veil on her private life, explaining how the climb up the pop ladder has felt to the woman who was born Larissa de Macedo Machado. Thank God that’s all that it is, because when I saw that title, I thought we might be dealing with another Chris Gaines situation here. (Netflix)
Premieres Friday:
CHAOS: The Manson Murders — Legendary documentarian Errol Morris explores the theory that there may have been more to the infamous Charles Manson than we’ve been led to believe. Well, I’ll grant you that he was probably better for the Beach Boys than Mike Love. (Netflix)
Delicious — The hidden agendas of a German family rise to the surface after they accidentally hit a young French woman with their car. Kind of a theme this week, huh, Netflix? I’m getting the impression you’d really like us to stay home or something. (Netflix)
Dupahiya — The theft of a motorcycle breaks an Indian village’s 25-year streak of being crime-free. You can understand why they’re upset, because this sort of thing is just a slippery slope to Ice T showing up and telling you more about your kids’ habits than you really want to know. (Prime Video)
Formula 1: Drive to Survive — Season 7 delves into the unparalleled excitement of the 2024 racing season, including driver Lewis Hamilton’s switch from Mercedes to Ferrari. But when you made the bold move from hitchhiking to Lyft, you couldn’t even get Tubi interested. (Netflix)
The Last Drive-In With Joe Bob Briggs — While he prepares for his triumphant return to Spooky Empire in June, Joe Bob is lifting the veil on a seventh season of cinematic trasharama. When you think about it, he essentially has the same job as Kathleen Kennedy, but only one of them realizes it. (Shudder)
Nadaaniyan — To regain her standing within her group of upper-crust friends, a rich Delhi girl hires a middle-class boy to pose as her boyfriend. And then guess what happens? The boys from her caste beat him viciously and throw his broken body down a well, that’s what. But if you said “They fall in love,” give yourself partial credit. (Netflix)
Paradis City — In the Sweden of the near future, a captured criminal is enlisted to rescue the Home Secretary from kidnappers in a walled-off slum. Based on the novel by Jens Lapidus, which is Swedish for “John Carpenter.” (Prime Video)
Plankton: The Movie — SpongeBob’s frenemy gets his very own animated feature, in which his evil plans to rule the world are hijacked by the sentient computer he’s married to. This must be what playing RISK with Mayim Bialik feels like. (Netflix)
When Life Gives You Tangerines — The four seasons are the motif of a Korean drama series that follows the ebb and flow of a couple’s relationship from the 1950s onward. The problem is that for guys, the four seasons are winter, spring, summer and the babysitter. (Netflix)
When No One Sees Us — Maribel Verdu headlines an eight-episode drama that has her investigating a series of crimes that seem to revolve around an American army base in Seville. Can she handle the truth? Listen, I’ve seen Y tu mamá también, and I’m pretty sure that woman can handle anything. (Max)
Premieres Monday:
American Manhunt: Osama Bin Laden — You would have assumed there was nothing left to learn about the decade-long search for the evil mastermind behind Sept. 11, but never tell Netflix they’re beating a dead camel. Heck, if he had offed all his wives before the SEALS got to him, they could have wrung three seasons out of this, easy. (Netflix)
