This week, take your mind off the real world with some amazing shows — both new and beloved returning series — courtesy of streaming services like Netflix, Apple TV Plus and Paramount Plus.
On Apple TV Plus, two of the streamer’s biggest hits return for their sophomore seasons; on Nov. 13, Sharon Horgan’s Bad Sisters returns, and on Nov. 15, the second season of the dystopian sci-fi thriller Silo will premiere.
You can catch real-life fighting on Netflix this week with the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson heavyweight bout, or you can check out the latest fictional fight between two rival SoCal dojos when new episodes of Cobra Kai drop; both of those will be available on Nov. 15.
On Paramount Plus, Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan’s new series Landman arrives this week, and Peacock is also dropping a reboot of The Day of The Jackal starring Eddie Redmayne, plus you can catch the exclusive streaming premiere of the summer blockbuster Twisters on the platform, too.

Netflix
Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson (Nov. 15)
As Netflix’s hit series nears its conclusion — the sixth and final season is airing in three parts — the kids from Miyagi-Do and Cobra Kai head to Barcelona for the Sekai Taikai international karate tournament. The World Cup-style competition is sure to test the mettle of the younger competitors. Season 6, part 2, premieres Nov. 15 on Netflix, while the closing final five episodes will air in February 2025.
Dune: Prophecy (Nov. 17)
Apple TV Plus
Nothing about Bad Sisters’ first season suggested that it was, in fact, a first season. The truth behind the season’s murder was revealed, the loose ends were tied up, and the story seemed to have been told. (The series’ source material, the Belgian series Clan, was also a one-and-done story.) While it’s tempting to see the show’s return as unnecessary, the show’s creator and star Sharon Horgan is usually worth trusting — and bringing in Fiona Shaw to stir the pot can only be a good thing. The first two episodes stream starting Nov. 13, with a new episode airing weekly through Dec. 25.

Cross follows Alex Cross, a homicide detective, whose personal demons threaten to derail his career. All eight episodes of the series will arrive on Nov. 14, and a second season has already been ordered.
Deadpool & Wolverine (Nov. 12)
Frederick Forsyth’s 1971 novel has seen several film adaptations (Fred Zinneman’s 1973 film being the most faithful to the source material), but Peacock is betting that viewers will be drawn in for their new interpretation. In the 10-episode series, the target of a mysterious assassin known as the Jackal (Eddie Redmayne) has been updated; while it was once Charles de Gaulle in the original text, now it’s a tech whiz who promises to blow the lid on billionaires’ spending habits — much to the displeasure of said billionaires. Redmayne and Lashana Lynch co-star in this tense cat-and-mouse thriller. New episodes stream weekly on Peacock starting Nov. 14.
Twisters (Nov. 14)
Hulu
Country music star Luke Bryan sits down with some of the genre’s biggest names to talk shop, swap stories, and play some music in the new Hulu series It’s All Country. Bryan, a producer on the series (alongside NFL star Peyton Manning), gets the stories behind the songs and gets to the bottom of the craft the way only a fellow artist can. Wynonna Judd, Sheryl Crow, Lady A and Shaboozey are just a few of the announced guests, while the season opener features Luke Combs. All six episodes will be available to stream on Hulu on Nov. 15.
Landman (Nov. 17)
