New Movies + Shows to Watch this Weekend: ‘Return To Hogwarts’ on HBO Max + More

Many of us will be ringing in 2022 the same way we rang in 2021: at home, on the couch. And you know what? There’s no shame in that game. Going out on New Year’s is so pre-pandemic, and so, in order to embrace our shut-in lifestyle, let’s commit to only watching quality shows in 2022. Fortunately, our favorite streaming platforms get it, and they’re kicking off the new year with some great new content. Whether you use Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, or all of the above, the top new titles on streaming this weekend will reunite us with some old friends and we can’t wait. What are the biggest shows and movies to check out? We here at Decider can help you figure out what to watch this weekend and where to stream it.

New Movies and Shows to Stream This Weekend: Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts, Cobra Kai Season 4  and Queer Eye Season 6

The new movies and shows out on streaming this weekend are sure to stir up old memories. Not only are we getting the premiere of Cobra Kai season four on Netflix, which brings Johnny (William Zabka) and Daniel (Ralph Macchio) and their sparring dojos back to our screens, but Netflix is also blessing us with the return of Queer Eye, giving us that show’s first new episodes in over a year. On HBO Max, you’ll be calling “Accio Apple TV remote!” when Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts airs on New Year’s Day. And if all this nostalgia isn’t enough, Disney Plus is premiering its all-new series ’80s Top Ten on New year’s Eve, a new countdown show featuring some of the biggest and best moments of the Me Decade, hosted by Brat Packer Rob Lowe. Curious to find out more? Check out the rest of the hit titles new on streaming this weekend below:

New on HBO Max January 1: Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts

HBO knows that you’ll be spending your New Year’s Day at home on the couch, very likely staving off a headache and in need of some comforting nostalgia, and most of us of a certain generation will gladly be tuning in to Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return To Hogwarts when it drops that day. The special marks the 20th anniversary of the first film, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, and features a reunion of all the film’s stars, Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson, and Rupert Grint, along with appearances from dozens of other actors who appeared in the franchise’s 8-film run. Notably absent will be the series’ now-controversial creator, J.K. Rowling.

New on Netflix December 31: Cobra Kai Season 4

When season three of Cobra Kai ended, it seemed like Johnny Lawrence and Daniel LaRusso might finally form a karate alliance for the first time in the 40 years that they’ve known each other. When season four premieres on New Year’s Eve day, we’ll get to binge our way through to see just how long that alliance holds up. While past seasons of the show have brought back most the film franchise’s original key players (Martin Kove’s dastardly sensei John Kreese, Elisabeth Shue’s Ali, and even most of the actors who appeared in The Karate Kid Part II which was set in Japan). So who can we expect to see in season 4 to raise the stakes even higher? This season sees the return of Terry Silver (Thomas Ian Griffith), the villainous owner of the Cobra Kai dojo from The Karate Kid Part III. Silver and Kreese will band together to take down Johnny, Daniel, and any other threat to the Cobra Kai empire, once and for all.

New on Disney+ December 31: ’80s Top Ten

Do you miss the 1980s? Do you also miss that early aughts genre of TV show that would feature talking heads telling you what they missed about the 1980s? Man, have I got a treat for you. Starting on December 31st, Disney Plus will air ’80s Top Ten, a National Geographic series hosted by Rob Lowe, and featuring celebrities like Ridley Scott and Joan Collins who will discuss the decade’s most iconic pop culture moments, fashions, and more.
