Mashable's entertainment team has scoured the streaming services to highlight the most buzzed-about releases of this week and ranked them from worst to best — or least worth your time to most watchable. Whether you're looking for some '90s nostalgia-fuelled adventures, a live Netflix chat show, or one of the best and most devastating TV shows of 2025 so far, we've got something just for you.
Here's what's new on streaming, from worst to best.
12. The Electric State
We're calling it now, Electric State is one of the worst movies of 2025. Following on the heels of flops like Cherryand The Gray Man, directing duo Joe Russo and Anthony Russo deliver an overcrowded adaptation of Simon Stålenhag's novel Electric State. And it's an absolute eyesore that feels like a slog.
Stranger Things'Millie Bobbie Brown teams with Chris Pratt for a meandering adventure set in an alternate 1990's, where mankind has survived a way with AI robots — who look like beloved cartoon characters and Mr. Peanut. But to find the brother she thought she lost, one hard-headed teen (Brown) must traverse into the No Man's Land where bots still reign. In my review of Electric State, I jeered, "The Russos are not creators, they're collectors. And here, they basically turned a junkpile aesthetic into a trash movie." — Kristy Puchko, Entertainment Editor
Starring: Millie Bobbie Brown, Chris Pratt, Stanley Tucci, Woody Harrelson, and Giancarlo Esposito
How to watch: The Electric State comes to Netflix on March 14.
11. The Parenting
Meeting the parents takes a grisly turn in The Parenting, a horror comedy from Craig Johnson (The Skeleton Twins) that boasts a cast including Brian Cox, Parker Posey, Lisa Kudrow, Edie Falco, and Dean Norris. The film centers on couple Rohan (Nik Dodani) and Josh (Brandon Flynn), who have planned a weekend getaway to introduce their parents. But botched first impressions and incompatible families are nothing compared to the true horror of the weekend: a demon haunting the rental home.
Despite its stacked cast and the occasional standout line reading, The Parenting never takes its horror or comedy far enough, suffering instead from stilted pacing and tired family comedy clichés. But for all its flaws, it is a delight to see a possessed Cox in demon mode. On top of pulling some vomiting and head-spinning from The Exorcist's bag of tricks, his nasty tirades recall Cox's normal Succession dialogue. If you for some reason ever wondered what would happen if Logan Roy crossed paths with Pazuzu, The Parenting is your answer.. — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter
Starring: Nik Dodani, Brandon Flynn, Brian Cox, Edie Falco, Lisa Kudrow, Dean Norris, Parker Posey, and Vivian Bang
How to watch: The Parenting is now streaming on Max.
10.Long Bright River
Amanda Seyfried stars Long Bright River, a limited series adaptation of Liz Moore's bestselling novel. The Emmy winner plays Mickey, a Philadelphia police officer who patrols her former neighborhood of Kensington, which was deeply impacted by the opioid crisis. When a string of murders strikes Kensington women, Mickey realizes her long-missing sister Kacey (Ashleigh Cummings) may be affected. She and her old partner Truman (Nicholas Pinnock) jump on the case, kicking off a suspenseful search that reopens old wounds from Mickey's past.
Long Bright River boasts strong performances, especially from a very grounded Seyfried, but as a crime drama, it doesn't feel like anything we haven't seen before. (The Pennsylvania setting doesn't help the already several Mare of Easttownsimilarities.) One of the most fascinating aspects of the show is the soured relationship between Mickey and Kacey, but with so much of it relegated to flashbacks, this central story of two estranged sisters never quite takes off. — B.E.
Starring: Amanda Seyfried, Nicholas Pinnock, Ashleigh Cummings, Callum Vinson, John Doman, Dash Mihok, Britne Oldford, Matthew Del Negro, Harriet Sansom Harris, Patch Darragh, and Perry Mattfeld
How to watch: Long Bright River is now streaming on Peacock.
9. Moana 2
Get ready to go "Beyond" all over again, because Moana 2is coming to digital. The sequel to Disney's 2016 smash hit reunites us with wayfinder Moana (voiced by Auliʻi Cravalho) as she embarks on a new quest to save her home island of Motunui. This time around, she must find the legendary island of Motufetu, which was cursed long ago by the human-hating god Nalo, and reconnect all the ocean's peoples.
The ensuing journey is a blast, with Moana's new companions adding extra fun to the high seas, and with demigod Maui (Dwayne Johnson) once again bringing his shapeshifting fun to the screen. Yet Moana 2 still falls short of Moana in several ways. Nalo proves to be an underwhelming villain, while Moana 2's songs are simply unmemorable without Lin-Manuel Miranda. As I wrote in my Moana 2 review, "Miranda's presence is greatly missed, with songs often feeling like lackluster rehashes of the first film's songs."* — B.E.
Starring: Auli'i Cravalho, Dwayne Johnson, Hualālai Chung, Rose Matafeo, David Fane, Awhimai Fraser, Khaleesi Lambert-Tsuda, Temuera Morrison, Nicole Scherzinger, Rachel House, Gerald Ramsey, and Alan Tudyk
How to watch: Moana 2 is now streaming on Disney+.
8. Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2
Maybe you're a Yellowstonefiend. Maybe you've heard everyone and their horse telling you to watch the Kevin Costner-led cowboy series — especially after the show's December 2024 finale drew a reported 13.1 million viewers in three days, according to Paramount. If you missed it, Season 5, Part 2 is coming to Peacock, so you can watch the Dutton family defend their Montana ranch for one last time. Get caught up in political developer land grabs, family secrets, and bloody drama with Taylor Sheridan and John Lindan's popular series. — Shannon Connellan, UK Editor

7.Evil Dead
Two Evil Deadmovies for the price of one are staggering their way to Shudder this spring, in the form of Sam Raimi's original 1981 The Evil Deadand the franchise's fourth instalment/reboot, Evil Dead(2013). Although the latter isn't an exact remake, both stories have a similar plot: A group of young characters staying at a cabin in the woods accidentally awaken some evil forces, and possession-themed chaos ensues. — Sam Haysom, Deputy UK Editor

6. Am I Being UnreasonableSeason 2
Daisy May Cooper and Selin Hizli's comedy/drama/horror Am I Being Unreasonable?was one of our favourite shows of 2023, so expectations on the sequel are high. Following a haunted and struggling mother (Cooper) who's reeling from the tragic death of her brother-in-law – a man she was also having an affair with – season two follows directly on from that very memorable memorial episode that closed out the last season. Like the first outing, the tone flips seamlessly between over-the-top comedy and disturbing psychological horror, with plenty of twists along the way. — S.H.
Starring:Daisy May Cooper, Selin Hizli, Lenny Rush, Dustin Demri-Burns, Charlie Cooper
How to watch:Am I Being Unreasonable?Season 2 is now streaming on Hulu.

Created by Peter Craig (The Town), this new Apple TV+ series stars Brian Tyree Henry as Ray Driscoll, a Philly entrepreneur with a unique business plan. Alongside his simple-minded bestie Manny (Wagner Moura), Ray impersonates a DEA agent to ambush low-level drug dealers, stealing their ill-gotten gains and illegal substances for profit. The money, they'll split. The drugs will go to a bigger dealer, who's a sort of father-figure to Ray. But when one of these raids goes sideways, there's fire, death, and a wounded survivor hellbent on revenge. Can Ray and Manny survive once they've got a vicious kingpin and the actual DEA on his trail? You'll have to tune in to find out! — K.P.

The Wheel of Timeturns into its third season, and the stakes have never been higher. Dragon Reborn Rand al'Thor (Josha Stradowski) is on the run from the Forsaken, with his journey bringing him to the Aiel Waste. There, trials await him and his traveling companions, including Moiraine (Rosamund Pike) and Egwene (Madeleine Madden). Particularly disturbing is a vision that Moiraine receives that tells her Rand can only survive if she dies, and vice versa. Could we be losing one of our two leads this season?
SEE ALSO: How Amazon's 'Wheel of Time' is different from the booksPanic about that outcome aside, The Wheel of Time remains an epic fantasy treat three seasons in. The ensemble cast continues to click, even when thrown into new and intriguing combinations, and each new location explored provides ample opportunity for awe. Plus, magical battles are off the charts this season — look no further than the Aes Sedai smackdown in episode 1 for proof. — B.E.
Starring: Rosamund Pike, Daniel Henney, Josha Stradowski, Zoë Robins, Madeleine Madden, Marcus Rutherford, Dónal Finn, Ceara Coveney, Kate Fleetwood, Natasha O’Keeffe, Ayoola Smart, Kae Alexander, Laia Costa, Olivia Williams, Luke Fetherston, Callum Kerr, and Nuno Lopes

2. O'Dessa
Patti Cake$ writer/director Geremy Jasper returns with a rock opera that was one of our most anticipated premieres out of SXSW, thanks to a propulsive soundtrack, trippy aesthetic, and moving tale of resistance and romance.
Stranger Things' Sadie Sink stars as O’Dessa, a rambler who has a song in her heart and a destiny in her blood. In a dystopian world, a narcissistic dictator (Murray Batlett) numbs the population into poverty through an endless barrage of TV broadcasts. It's up to O'Dessa to bring her music to the masses and open their hearts and minds. Along the way, Jasper drenches his audience in an enchanting musical soundscape with visuals gorgeous and strange, making for a movie musical that feels familiar yet thrillingly fresh. — K.P.
Starring: Sadie Sink, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Murray Bartlett, Regina Hall, and Pokey LaFarge
How to watch:O'Dessais now streaming on Hulu.
1. Adolescence
This is surely going to be one of the TV shows of the year. Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne's four-part mini-series, directed by Boiling Pointcollaborator Philip Barantini, uses a unique format to tell the story of a family torn apart after their 13-year-old son Jamie (Owen Cooper) is accused of murder. Each episode is filmed in one shot, a device that unfolds the story in unflinching and uncomfortable real time. The performances are stunning across the board and the writing delves into a difficult but timely subject matter. Memorable and harrowing. — S.H.
Starring:Stephen Graham, Ashley Walters, Erin Doherty, Owen Cooper, Faye Marsay, Christine Tremarco, Amelie Pease
How to watch:Adolescenceis now streaming on Netflix.
