“56 Days” (Prime Video)
This slick, steamy thriller turns an encounter into a murder scene. When Oliver (Avan Jogia) and Ciara (Dove Cameron) lock eyes in a supermarket, their chemistry is instant and combustible. Fast forward 56 days, and a homicide detective is standing in Oliver’s apartment, staring at a decomposing corpse.
What happened between the affair and the forensics? Whose body is this? Created by James Wan (Saw, Insidious) and based on the best-selling novel by Katherine Ryan Howard, the series zigzags between a high-pressure investigation and a romance spiraling out of control.
All eight episodes will premiere on Wednesday, February 18th at 3am ET. prime video
“The Night Agent” Season 3 (Netflix)
The third season of this action-thriller series finds Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) having a terrible, terrible, no, very bad time. Fresh off the turmoil of last season, Peter follows a young Treasury official who rushes to Istanbul with stolen information and his dead boss.
What begins as an investigation explodes into a globe-trotting conspiracy from Washington to Mexico City, complete with a pipeline of dark money, paid assassins, and a persistent journalist (Genesis Rodriguez). Their uneasy alliance reveals enough dirt to bury Washington–if they survive long enough to share it.
All 10 episodes will premiere on Thursday, February 19th at 3am ET. Netflix
“The Last Thing He Told Me” Season 2 (Apple TV)
Five years after their husband and father vanished into thin air, Hannah (Jennifer Garner) and stepdaughter Bailey (Angourie Rice) are shocked to discover that Owen Michaels (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau) has returned. The women spent six months rebuilding their lives, but everything turned upside down because of him.
As Hannah and Bailey try to figure out if they can reunite their family, the past looms large and dangerous. Based on Laura Dave’s new sequel novel, The First Time I Saw Him, Season 2 promises the same gripping twists and turns of Season 1, as well as higher stakes and worse decisions.
Episode 1 premieres Friday, February 20th at 12am ET apple tv
“Watching You” (Hulu)
Privacy is a myth in this sophisticated Australian thriller, and all it takes is one night of recklessness to blow your life away. After steamy sex at a friend’s apartment, Lina (Aisha Dee) makes a surprising discovery. A hidden camera caught everything. What follows is a paranoid spiral in search of a voyeur who is weaponizing her most intimate moments.
Based on JP Pomare’s novel The Last Guests, the setting is uncomfortably plausible, and the questions it asks about a world saturated with surveillance are unsettling. You’ll want to record every webcam you own.
All six episodes will premiere on Friday, February 20th at 12am ET. Hulu
“Strip Law” (Netflix)
“Strip Law” adds a Las Vegas flavor to Netflix’s adult animation offering. In this new series, Adam Scott voices Lincoln Gumm, Las Vegas’ most serious lawyer, but his track record in the courtroom is as lackluster as his personality. Sheila Flambe (Janelle James) is a magician and proud hedonist who understands that in Las Vegas, spectacle wins the case. Together, they tackle Sin City’s most ridiculous legal disputes.
With Stephen Root and Keith David rounding out the voice cast, expect legal strategy mixed with showgirl energy and jokes that would never pass the bar exam.
All 10 episodes will premiere on Friday, February 20th at 3am ET. Netflix
“Shoresea” Season 5 (Hulu)
The Bulldogs are back. Shoresy (Jared Keeso) has a hard time picking on those trying to soft-serve Canada’s beloved match. Season 5 sees the foul-mouthed hockey warriors take on the EU and fight to maintain the grit that made North American hockey great. Think less penalty boxes and more broken noses.
Shoresy will coach Blueberry Buddies, take on attractive offers, and try to build a winning culture the old-fashioned way. Bruise first, then ask questions. The hits are harder, the obscenities even more vile.
All six episodes will premiere on Saturday, February 21st at 12am ET. Hulu
“Knights of the Seven Kingdoms” Season 1 Finale (HBO)
After a brutal clash in Trials of the Seven, Knights of the Seven Kingdoms enters its finale titled “The Morrow.” Prince Baelor dies, and Tall Duncan “Dunk” Ser Duncan (Peter Claffey) and his loyal squire Aegon “Egg” Targaryen (Dexter Sol Unsell) face the aftermath.
Amid the heroic deeds and heartbreaking events, a question arises. What will the kingdom’s knights and princes do next? Their game is not a game of thrones (yet), but Dunk and Egg must navigate a world of honor, politics, and danger, preferably together.
Episode 6 will premiere on HBO on Sunday, February 22nd at 10pm ET. HBO Max
