Looking for something new to watch this weekend? Catch a campy new season of The Traitors on Peacock (plus a new season of Deal or No Deal Island!), the drama American Primeval on Netflix, or the chilling thriller Goosebumps: The Vanishing on Disney+, which are just a few of the new titles we’re excited for this week.
Not sure which new releases to check out? Let us here at Decider help you figure out what to watch this weekend and where to stream it.
Season two of The Traitors on Peacock was one of the most entertaining seasons of any show last year, and the killer competition returns this week with even more treachery. Season three dropped on Jan. 9, so if you haven’t already watched, please do so now. If murders in Scottish castles aren’t for you, why not check out murders on the American frontier? Netflix’s new western series American Primeval will deliver plenty of that as its six episodes explore the deadly and dangerous clashes between soldiers, religious settlers and the indigenous people of the American West in the 1800s. And on Disney+, check out the new season of Goosebumps: The Vanishing when all episodes drop on Friday.
Marrggghderrrrrr. If you’ve missed Alan Cumming’s delightfully unhinged turn as the host of The Traitors, a new season is finally here. Three episodes of the reality competition series are out this week, and the show’s celebrity contestants this time include some bold personalities including Real Housewives stars Chanel Ayan and Dorinda Medley, Selling Sunset‘s Chrishell Stause, and Boston Rob Mariano. Hopefully one of them will live up to Phaedra Parks’ star turn as last year’s stone-cold killer.
Nothing beats seeing Ross Gellar pivot to something completely new and different. David Schwimmer stars in the new season of the Disney+ anthology series Goosebumps: The Vanishing, playing a divorced father of teenage twins who come visit him at his house in Brooklyn for the summer. While the kids are in the city, they make some startling discoveries and are drawn into a mystery surrounding four teens who mysteriously disappeared in 1994.
Peter Berg helms the new Netflix historical drama American Primeval, a period piece set in the 1850s as American expansion headed to the West and the Utah War between Mormon settlers and federal troops began in the Utah territory, which resulted in several grisly battles. Taylor Kitsch, Betty Gilpin, Kim Coates and Jai Courtney co-star in the six-episode limited series which is out now.
The options above only scratch the surface, so you know that this weekend’s full lineup will have amazing options for what to watch this weekend!
