If they haven’t seen it already, almost everyone will be watching Wednesday season 2, part 1 on Netflix this weekend. As much as we love that series, it’s too big of a hit to be called “underrated.” Fortunately, Wednesday isn’t your only option as you head into the weekend. Watch With Us has selected three underrated Netflix shows […]

It’s taken a long time, but it appears that Lindsay Lohan finally has the first big hit of her comeback. The former Disney star has reunited with Jamie Lee Curtis in Freakier Friday, the sequel to their 2003 hit, Freaky Friday. In the first movie, Anna Coleman (Lohan) and her mother, Tess (Curtis), swapped bodies […]

This week, Netflix added After the Sunset to its lineup. This action comedy originally hit theaters in 2004, and now it’s getting its most prominent streaming release to date. Woody Harrelson and Pierce Brosnan headline the film as a frustrated FBI agent and a world-class jewel thief, respectively. Instead of centering the movie around a drawn-out […]

Earlier this year, Good Cop/Bad Cop premiered on The CW, and it didn’t draw much of an audience. However, its debut on Amazon Prime Video has propelled the show into the streamer’s top 10. This offbeat police procedural is a homecoming for Leighton Meester, who starred on The CW’s Gossip Girl nearly two decades ago. The […]

HBO has had a reputation for creating the best shows on TV for decades. HBO Max may have diluted the brand, but that reputation is largely intact. Some shows like And Just Like That have proven to be more popular as hate-watches, but there have already been some great HBO Max series this year that […]

It just wouldn’t be a normal week if an unexpected movie didn’t shoot to the top of Netflix‘s movie chart. This week, the film in question is Journey 2: The Mysterious Island, the sequel to the 2008 remake of Journey to the Center of the Earth. Both movies are currently streaming on Netflix, but we […]

Since the original novel was published in 1898, H. G. Wells‘ The War of the Worlds has inspired numerous adaptations, including Orson Welles‘ famous radio broadcast in 1938 and the 2005 film starring Tom Cruise. This month, Amazon Prime Video has added its own take on War of the Worlds, and it’s already one of […]

From 2012 to 2016, Showtime’s comedy/drama House of Lies was one of the cable network’s top shows. Now, the entire five-season run of House of Lies has come to Netflix nearly a decade after the series’ conclusion. The show stars Don Cheadle as Marty Kaan, a management consultant to the rich and powerful. He’s basically […]

Netflix‘s endless parade of action movies is one of the things that the streamer does best. However, it wouldn’t be the No. 1 streamer if action were the only thing it was good at. This week, the Netflix original romance film My Oxford Year is heating up the movie charts as if it were a […]

Do you know why no one talks about the Buffy the Vampire Slayer movie? It’s because the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV show far surpassed it. Series creator Joss Whedon had more leeway to make the show darker on TV than he did with the film. Season 2 as a whole was a game-changer for […]

Liam Neeson‘s action era may be ending, but his comedy run is just starting in the newly released film The Naked Gun. This legacy sequel to The Naked Gun trilogy is carrying on the tradition of Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams and David Zucker, the creative team behind some of the most hilarious movies of the […]

Thus far in 2025, Netflix‘s original movies haven’t quite hit the same heights that the streamer has previously reached. That may be because the Oscar-bait films are being held back until the latter part of the year. If that’s the case, the list of Netflix’s best original movies will look very different at the end […]

In 2016, director Ben Wheatley and screenwriter Amy Jump adapted J. G. Ballard‘s controversial novel High-Rise as a feature film. This thriller stars Tom Hiddleston as a resident of a building that was meant to be self-sustaining for residents. Everything the residents could possibly want is contained in one giant complex, but the class struggle […]

August just started, and Netflix already has another hit series that’s now among the top 10 shows on the streamer. The Lazarus Project — which shouldn’t be confused with the 2015 Olivia Wilde film with the same name — is a British sci-fi series that was broadcast in America on TNT. This show revolves around […]

Hulu is having a very documentary-heavy week, and we’re here for it in the first weekend of August. The Bear, General Hospital and Love Island: UK seem to have a stranglehold on Hulu’s top 15 list. But some wonderfully off-beat choices stand out. Watch With Us has made our picks for the three popular Hulu […]

What’s Netflix serving up for the first weekend of August? Quite a lot, actually. Since the first of the month falls on a Friday in August, Netflix is not only flush with new movies to watch, it also has fresh shows to enjoy. The Watch With Us team has gone through this week’s programming options […]

The Watch With Us team believes in starting the month off on a strong note, and that’s exactly what Peacock is doing in August. On August 1, scream queen Samara Weaving stars in a new Peacock-exclusive thriller, Borderline, as a ’90s pop star who is facing a stalker in her own home. There are also […]

The first weekend of August has arrived just in time for Peacock subscribers, and that means a lot of fresh movies are available to stream. One of the new additions is Borderline, a Peacock-exclusive thriller that’s bypassing a larger theatrical release and going straight-to-streaming. That’s just one of the Watch With Us team’s picks for […]

Netflix fans won’t be lacking for choices when it comes to TV shows in August. The streamer has lined up several new and returning series that are set to premiere during the final full month of summer. To help narrow down your viewing plans, the Watch With Us team has selected the three must-watch TV […]

Only a handful of movies have achieved a score of 90 percent or higher on Rotten Tomatoes. It’s far more common to find films that reached 80 percent or lower. That only makes the films that achieve that score stand out from the crowded lineup of movies streaming on Netflix. Among the new-to-Netflix films in […]

In 2004, director Michel Gondry and screenwriter Charlie Kaufman‘s Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind introduced viewers to a love story that was already over near the beginning of the film. Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet play a pair of estranged lovers, Joel and Clementine, whose relationship just didn’t work out. The twist is that […]
