Just as things were starting to look up, it appears we are falling back into COVID lockdown again. Come on, 2020! Why you do this to us? It is our own fault, really; so now that we are back indoors almost full-time, we have every reason to really ramp up the streaming marathons we run over the weekends. Luckily for us, whether you’re looking on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or all of the above, each streaming platform has a ton new options to keep your marathons fresh. But where to start? For what it’s worth, here’s our thoughts on what to watch this weekend and where to stream it.
