There’s so much great streaming content to watch in the third week of April, we don’t even know where to start.
Between returning seasons of great shows, original movies and streaming debuts, you will not be lacking for something to watch this week.
Watch With Us has put together a guide for the five best things you can stream this week on platforms like Netflix, Hulu and more.
Our first pick is the grand return of HBO Max‘s Euphoria, which reunites us with our troubled friends Rue, Cassie, Nate, Maddy and more, five years after the events of season 2.

‘Euphoria’ Season 3 — HBO Max
By the end of season 2 of Euphoria, Lexi’s (Maude Apatow) ambitious play has finally come to a close, Nate (Jacob Elordi) has confronted his father about his illicit affairs and dumped Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) and a fatal shootout between two crucial characters has left both of them dead.
Season 3 picks up five years after season 2 left off, with everyone finally free of the boundaries of high school and now burdened with the confines of adulthood. While Rue (Zendaya) continues to run away from the debts she owes Laurie (Martha Kelly), Cassie and Nate are set to be married, Maddy (Alexa Demie) works in talent management and Jules (Hunter Schafer) is a dissatisfied sugar baby in New York City.
Euphoria has made its mark as a controversial show about teen life featuring sex, drugs, nudity, abuse and more. Though the way it handles its sensitive content has tended to polarize critics, the salacious storylines are undeniably compelling television, and the show’s direction and editing are inspired. Plus, the series was essentially a breeding ground for top young Hollywood talent, serving as the breakout for Sweeney, Elordi and Schafer, and serving as Zendaya’s final break from her child-acting roots.
‘Beef’ Season 2 — Netflix
The first season of Beef starred Ali Wong and Steven Yeun as two people involved in an incident of road rage that progressively escalates into an enduring feud. Now, Beef returns in an anthology format with a second season starring Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan. The premise follows a young, engaged couple (played by Cailee Spaeny and Charles Melton) who witness a shocking altercation between their elder boss (Isaac) and his wife (Mulligan) that has lasting repercussions. What ensues is a high-stakes battle involving lies, blackmail and betrayal.
We couldn’t be more excited for an all-new beef in Beef. Season 1 worked so well in part due to the intense chemistry between Yeun and Wong, so Isaac and Mulligan will have to match that. Thankfully, the two actors have actually already showcased a comedic sparring repertoire as ex-lovers in the movie Inside Llewyn Davis. The first season excels in its messy, occasionally surreal portrait of humanity that pokes at profound existentialist questions and blends comedy with drama and thriller.
Stream Beef season 2 on April 16.
‘Roommates’ (2026) — Netflix
This new Netflix original comedy film, produced by Adam Sandler, stars Sandler’s daughter, Sadie Sandler. The plot follows college freshman Devon (Sandler), who asks a more popular girl named Celeste (Chloe East) to be her roommate. Though the pair are initially friendly and seem to bond, tensions begin to flare as time goes on and things become passive-aggressive quickly, as they navigate the challenges of living together in the same dorm.
The trailer for Roommates looks like an insanely cute coming-of-age comedy, and it will be interesting to see Sandler’s elder daughter in a lead role after his younger daughter, Sunny Sandler, led 2023’s You Are So Not Invited to My Bat Mitzvah. The supporting cast for the film is absolutely stacked, and includes Natasha Lyonne, Sarah Sherman, Nick Kroll, Storm Reid, Ivy Wolk, Carol Kane and Janeane Garofalo. Of course, Sandler himself will make an appearance as well.
‘Balls Up’ (2026) — Amazon Prime Video
Mark Wahlberg and Paul Walter Hauser star as marketing executives Brad and Elijah, who pitch a full-coverage condom sponsorship with the World Cup. While in Brazil for the Cup festivities, a drunken night out ends in an international scandal that forces the two men to run from enraged fans, criminals and powerful officials who are out for blood.
Balls Up comes from Peter Farrelly, half of the Farrelly brothers directing duo known for films like There’s Something About Mary, Dumb and Dumber and Stuck on You. Separate from his brother, Peter has directed Ricky Stanicky and the Oscar-winning Green Book. The supporting cast of Balls Up includes Molly Shannon, Eric André and Sacha Baron Cohen.
‘Shelby Oaks’ (2025) — Hulu
Shelby Oaks impressed critics and audiences last fall as the debut directorial effort of YouTuber Chris Stuckmann, who funded the production of the film entirely through Kickstarter (and at $650,000, it ranks as the most-funded horror film on the platform). The plot concerns a woman named Mia (Camille Sullivan) who is searching for her missing sister, Riley (Sarah Durn), a paranormal investigator who disappeared while exploring a prison in the ghost town of Shelby Oaks. The film utilizes standard narrative presentation in addition to found footage and mockumentary.
Shelby Oaks serves as a solid directing debut for Stuckmann, who has a great command of atmosphere, tension and a solid emotional core. Led by a terrific performance from Sullivan, Shelby Oaks crafts a palpable feeling of dread through its confident direction and the utilization of found-footage material.
Stream Shelby Oaks on April 17.
