Shrinking season 2

Comedy-drama Shrinking returns for a second season on Apple TV Plus.

The Lincoln Lawyer season 3

Hit Netflix legal drama The Lincoln Lawyer is back for season 3, based on The Gods of Guilt, Michael Connelly's fifth book in his book series of the same name. Manuel Garcia-Rulfo returns as maverick lawyer Mickey Haller, and this time around he's got even more on his plate, both in and out of the courtroom. Neve Campbell and Becki Newton are among the other cast members back for round three, while Big Little Lies' Merrin Dungey and Barry's John Pirruccello also join. All 10 episodes are available to stream now.
Brothers
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Prime Video
Josh Brolin and Peter Dinklage star in Brothers as twins with a fractured bond. Brolin plays reformed criminal Moke whose attempts to stay on the right side of the law are derailed by a reunion with Jady (Dinklage). As they set out on a road trip across the country to secure the score of a lifetime, the pair may end up being more of a danger to each other than the unsavory characters (and overbearing mother…) they meet along the way. The cast also includes Glenn Close, Marisa Tomei, and Brendan Fraser.
Rivals
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Disney Plus
Based on the Jilly Cooper novel of the same name, Rivals stars David Tennant and The Boys' Alex Hassell as warring members of the nobility in '80s England, whose rivalry seeps into the world of independent television and threatens the future of a TV network. Aidan Turner, Danny Dyer, and Luke Pasqualino also star – and you can expect plenty of steamy scenes, too.
The Office
Available: Worldwide
Watch now: Prime Video
The Office is getting the remake treatment, again – and this time it's taken the cringe comedy Down Under. Comedian Felicity Ward steps into the Michael Scott/David Brent role as Hannah Howard, the managing director of Flinley Craddick. When Hannah finds out that her workplace is in danger of being shut down so everyone can work remotely, she goes to increasingly extreme measures to keep her "work family" together…
MaXXXine
Available: US
Watch now: Max
MaXXXine, the conclusion to Ti West's slasher trilogy, picks back up with X's final girl, adult film star and aspiring actor Maxine Minx (Mia Goth), who has finally made it to Hollywood. She may not have left her bloody past entirely behind her, though, as a serial killer is stalking the streets of LA and targeting young women. Alongside Goth, Halsey, Elizabeth Debicki, Lily Collins, and Kevin Bacon join the franchise for round three.
