Get out of here, Monday! We don’t have time for you, Tuesday! What even are you, Wednesday? No thank you, Thursday! It is Friday, the best day of the week, and that means it is time to get down. The workweek is over, the weekend is here, and may all of your plans be chill.

If your chillness depends on having new things to stream, then consider your chill certified fresh. Friday is the day for new shows and movies to drop, and today is #nodifferent. Netflix has a fun new reality/travel/food series Ugly Delicious as well as the second season of the French political thriller Marseille. There’s also Seven Seconds, a new crime drama starring Regina King that is sure to be buzzed about. Over on Hulu, the intense (and based on true events) drama Detroit waits to be discovered, while Amazon’s Prime Video has new episodes of two super shows (The Tick and Thunderbirds Are Go!). Tonight’s new offerings are eclectic, and you’ll have a well-rounded weekend if you collect’em all.

In addition to Decider’s What to Watch recommendations for Friday, here’s what’s new on streaming tonight.
