Looking for some new shows to stream this week? Here are the top seven picks to add to your watchlist:
Starting off with “Women in Blue,” an Apple TV+ series based on real events in Mexico City in 1971 where women join the police force to catch a serial killer known as the Undresser. The warm and likable tale follows the journey of four recruits working against the patriarchy to redeem themselves by catching the killer.
Next up is “Futurama,” now in its 12th season on Disney+. Created by Matt Groening and David X Cohen, the show continues to have fun with genre cliches while keeping the narrative and characters engaging. Look out for spoof episodes and encounters with lakes of tasty coffee.
“Unstable” on Netflix follows the eccentric founder of Dragon Industries, Ellis Dragon, as he navigates his tech company’s success and relationship with his son Jackson. The series provides a broad satire on tech entrepreneurs’ delusions.
On Disney+ is “Batman: Caped Crusader,” a noirish animation exploring Batman as a renegade and criminal in the eyes of authorities. This gripping series stars Hamish Linklater as the Caped Crusader, with a supporting voice cast including Christina Ricci and Minnie Driver.
For some laughs, don’t miss “Celebrity Send Off” on Channel 4, where Bez plans Shaun Ryder’s funeral in a hilariously eccentric manner. The show delves into the idea that people may not know their loved ones as well as they think.
Apple TV+ brings “Cowboy Cartel,” a true-crime series following FBI agent Scott Lawson’s investigation into the infiltration of horse racing in rural Tennessee by the Mexican drug cartel Los Zetas. The compelling story involves corruption, money laundering, and a shootout on the highway.
Lastly, “Lolita Lobosco” on Channel 4 is a sturdy Italian drama following detective Lobosco as she navigates crime investigations and battles against disrespect from her male colleagues. The second season sees her unraveling the truth about her father’s death and uncovering more mysteries.
These shows offer a diverse range of genres and stories to keep you entertained throughout the week.
