If you’re interested in something a little darker, you might consider checking out The Order Season 2 or the free marathon of Watchmen now available on HBO. The Order is Netflix’s supernatural series about a cult of magicians versus werewolves. It’s tons of fun.
For something sweet and more family-oriented, Hulu has the Love, Simon spin-off, Love, Victor, which seems to be a big hit with audiences already.
All ten episodes are ready to stream and it’s a short watch with each episode only running about 30 minutes in length.
Also releasing this weekend is Showtime series The Chi, which returns for its third season on Sunday night. Amid controversy involving one of its key actors, the third season returns more timely than ever.
HBO is debuting its Perry Mason reboot on Sunday, too. The new crime series stars Matthew Rhys in the title role and is receiving great critical buzz already.
There are also some great movies to watch this weekend too, such as Amazon’s latest original 7500.
