Sep 10 – Supergirl (2026)

Milly Alcock takes up the cape as Kara Zor-El in this new chapter of the DC universe, facing a cosmic threat while she finds her footing as a hero. It is colorful, big, and full of action.

Sep 7 – Collision (2026)

This Spanish language thriller weaves together several strangers whose lives crash into one another after a single violent event. Told with the pace of a good telenovela, it keeps the twists coming.

For viewers who do not mind reading subtitles, it makes a gripping ride. Do note it carries some violence and mature themes, in keeping with its crime story roots.

Sep 7 – OJ Unseen: Exploitation of Evil (2026)

This documentary series revisits the O.J. Simpson story through a long forgotten hidden camera show he once made, and what it says about the man and the media circus around him.

Anyone who remembers the trial will find this a fascinating look back. It covers a real murder case, so the subject is dark, but it is presented as thoughtful history rather than shock.

Sep 8 – Georgie & Mandy’s First Marriage (2026)

The second season of this warm family comedy carries on the story of young Georgie and Mandy raising a family in Texas. It grew out of Young Sheldon and The Big Bang Theory.

This is the comfort watch of the bunch, clean and funny and full of heart. If you like a sitcom you can enjoy with anyone in the room, it is an easy recommendation.

Sep 10 – A Killer Story (2026)

This HBO documentary digs into a murder case with a surprising turn, following the investigation and the people caught up in it. It is the kind of true crime that keeps you guessing.

True crime fans will find plenty to chew on here. As with any story of this kind, there are difficult details, but it stays on the serious, investigative side.
