I absolutely love Arrival, and I just saw it’s currently available to watch for free on Tubi! But, sadly, it won’t be there forever. Tubi lists it as leaving soon, though they don’t tell you exactly when things disappear. My guess is it’ll be gone by the end of January 2026, as they get ready for their new February releases. If you’re like me and haven’t seen it yet – or want to watch it again – I’d definitely recommend checking it out on Tubi while you still can! You wouldn’t want to miss out.

Created by Steven Knight and Tom and Chips Hardy, the FX thriller Taboo bears the creative influence of Ridley Scott, who served as an executive producer through his production company, Scott Free Productions. The series, set in 1814 London, stars Tom Hardy as James Delaney, a resourceful adventurer and businessman, and delves into the darker aspects of 19th-century society. Taboo feels more like a carefully crafted film than a typical TV show, distinguished by its detailed sets and bleak mood. It offers a unique look at the hardships faced by the working class and the widespread corruption within the East India Company.

As a total movie and TV buff, I’m always on the lookout for what’s worth watching. Right now, there’s a ton happening on Netflix, with shows like His & Hers getting huge buzz. But if you’re looking for my picks for the best shows to dive into – whether you want something to really settle into for a while or just a quick night of viewing – here are five that I think are definitely worth checking out this week.

There were rumors of a disagreement between director Nia DaCosta and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, but DaCosta insists that never happened. In an interview with Inverse, she explained, “It’s funny how it was reported. It seemed really dramatic, but I genuinely love Kevin Feige, and we have a great working relationship with everyone there.”

Thanks to its unique story, All of Us Are Dead quickly became one of the most popular and well-regarded zombie shows ever made. The series focuses on a group of high school students in South Korea who find themselves trapped and fighting for survival when a deadly zombie virus breaks out at their school. Most of the action takes place within the school building, highlighting the students’ fear and desperate struggle.

According to James Mack, a source familiar with Marvel’s plans, three members of the Young Avengers will appear in the upcoming Avengers movie, currently known as Avengers: Doomsday. This news follows earlier reports that the Young Avengers might feature in both Doomsday and Secret Wars, potentially as a way to introduce a Young Avengers TV series that has been discussed for a while.

I’ll attempt to avoid making too many corny hockey jokes and puns—though I can’t promise I’ll succeed! (Just like how exciting this show is.)

January 2026 is starting strong on Paramount+ with several new shows, including the popular 6-part thriller series Girl Taken, which is gaining attention globally. Existing Sheridan shows, like Tulsa King and Mayor of Kingstown, are still attracting viewers even after their seasons have ended.

During an interview on The Graham Norton Show, the host questioned Wunmi Mosaku, Idris Elba, and Martin Freeman – known for their roles as Hunter B-15, Heimdall, and Everett Ross in Marvel movies – about whether they would appear in the upcoming film, Avengers: Doomsday.

Beyond the main DC Universe movies, several standalone Batman stories are in development. These include Matt Reeves’ highly praised The Batman and its planned 2027 sequel, the new animated film Batman: Knightfall, and another project confirmed by James Gunn.
