New On Netflix, Disney+, And More: 5 Streaming Shows And Movies To Watch This Week (March 3 - 9)
One of the best things about having subscriptions to all the best streaming services is the way in which each one often caters to a different audience, but also the way they can sometimes surprise you. This week's list of streaming highlights has the wide variety of content you might expect, but not necessarily in the places you might expect it.
This week offers a movie that is sure to be fun for the whole family, but it's not coming to Disney+, it's on Netflix. No, Disney+ is instead the place where you'll find the most mature and violent series of the week. This week's new reality series offering home and gardening tips isn't from a Discovery series on Max. Max instead debuts an A24 horror movie that is the scariest film of the week. Here's a look at what to watch, and where to find it.
Following several cameos in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in everything from Spider-Man: No Way Home to She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, Charlie Cox stars alongside Vincent D'Onofrio in Daredevil: Born Again. The first of at least two seasons of a new Daredevil series that brings back nearly everything fans loved about the original Netflix series, only now you'll need a Disney+ subscription to watch it.
Originally set to debut in January, the decision was made to push back Meghan Markle's new Netflix series out of respect for those dealing with the devastating Southern California wildfires. The eight-part series will arrive March 4, and will see the Duchess of Sussex provide tips in areas including cooking and gardening.
One of the most popular reality competitions currently in production, and one of the best reasons to have a Peacock subscription, sees its third season come to an end this week. Fans of The Traitors will be able to enjoy both the finale of the competition as well as the reunion special that will wrap up the season. Now the wait for The Traitors Season 4 begins.
Few kids' properties over the last quarter century have been quite as popular as Spngebob Squarepants. The popular TV show has seen multiple movies over the years. The latest movie will require your Netflix subscription. Plankton The Movie, focuses on the traditional villain of the story Plankton, as his computer sidekick Karen decides to do what Plankton has never accomplished, taking over the world.
Once upon a time, Hugh Grant was the go-to lead for your favorite rom-com, but he's always been capable of surprising us. In last year's Heretic Grant terrified audiences as a man who kidnaps two missionaries in order to test their faith in the most extreme way possible.
With more episodes of Daredevil: Born Again arriving for the next several weeks, MCU fans will have plenty to keep them happy. Everybody else can look forward to everything else coming to streaming.

Should 'New Heights' YouTube glitch concern NFL ahead of Chiefs-Chargers Week 1 game?
Taylor Swift's appearance on the "New Heights" podcast led to more than 1 million concurrent viewers on YouTube. The video feed on the platform abruptly ended about one hour and 45 minutes into the stream, which left many confused, since the show had a timestamp of more than two hours. The issue was resolved, but with the NFL and YouTube streaming the Week 1 game in Brazil between the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Chargers on Sept. 5, it begged the question: should the NFL be concerned about YouTube's capability to stream a game to a worldwide audience that will command far more than one million viewers at once? It's not an unfamiliar situation for the league. Last season, as the first-ever NFL games aired live on Netflix set for Christmas Day approached, the streaming service also faced questions about the streaming capabilities in the wake of the issues viewers experienced during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight. Netflix had roughly one month to figure out the issues and largely aced the test, with hardly any complaints throughout the two games (and a Beyoncé live halftime performance). YouTube does provide the NFL Sunday Ticket Package and many people watch the league through YouTubeTV. But those are premium, subscription-based services with a number of viewers the company – owned by Google – is now accustomed to. (The tech issues for Sunday Ticket during the 2023 season certainly irked fans.) The scale of the Chiefs-Chargers game will exponentially increase the viewership numbers compared to those products, especially since the game is free to watch. A spokeswoman from Google confirmed to USA TODAY Sports that it was not a YouTube issue that led to the glitch. After the calamities of the Paul-Tyson fight, Netflix addressed its issues in connecting its backup servers – utilized to account for the heightened traffic on the platform – with the countless internet service providers (ISPs) throughout the world. Worth noting is that millions of people will be using YouTube simultaneously not for the purposes of watching the AFC West matchup, which could also strain streaming capacity. The NFL would not have handed out exclusive rights to YouTube – financial terms have not been disclosed but its almost certainly in the nine-figure range after NBCUniversal paid more than $100 million to air the first-ever game in Brazil in 2024 on Peacock – if the league didn't think the company could pull it off without issue. Ultimately, YouTube corrected the "New Heights" issue and fans had their "Tayvis" moment. But come Week 1, the company won't have that leeway.

A new 'Wednesday' season 2 part 2 trailer just dropped — and someone is back from the dead
Rejoice, "Wednesday" fans! More Nevermore soon awaits! After unveiling its first four episodes earlier this month, on Aug. 6, the final four episodes will wrap up the darker and more twisted "Wednesday" season 2 on Sept. 3. Today, Netflix gave fans of the Addams Family spinoff a first look at how those last chapters will wrap up this season's mystery — and also explain if (spoiler alert!) Jenna Ortega's Wednesday is still alive after that brutal confrontation with Tyler Galpin (Hunter Doohan) in the part 1 finale — with a fresh new part 2 trailer. This new trailer sees a recuperating Wednesday Addams waking up in the hospital post-attack, only to find that her bedside nurse is none other than Larissa Weems (Gwendoline Christie), the shapeshifting former principal of Nevermore Academy, who dramatically announced her return during an "Outcast Assembly" fan event in Sydney today. So is Weems truly back from the dead? After all, viewers might remember that her character was poisoned by Christina Ricci's Marilyn Thornhill in the season 1 finale. Not quite — rather, she's back to act as Wednesday's spirit guide, aiding the titular teen detective as she navigates another round of Big Bads (Tyler is still on the loose and he's after her and BFF Enid), familial drama ("Every family has dark chapters, Wednesday," assures Morticia) and more supernatural chaos. "If you don't hurry, you'll have nothing left to save," Weems can be heard warning Wednesday in the clip. But Christie's return isn't the only major casting news teased in the new two-minute video. At the end of an action-packed series of racing motorcycles, magical explosions and monstrous encounters, a character can be heard via voiceover. 'Beware," the mysterious voice warns. "There will be a price to pay.' That voice sounds like none other than Lady Gaga, who we already know has been announced by the streaming service to appear in the horror-mystery show's sophomore season. We also know that the Grammy winner will be playing Rosaline Rotwood, "a legendary Nevermore teacher who crosses paths with Wednesday." Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Mother Monster memorably revealed her involvement in the Netflix hit during the big Tudum event this past May, which saw the singer perform a medley of her tracks "Zombieboy," "Bloody Mary" and "Abracadabra," mixed with the iconic Addams Family theme. We'll have to wait to see exactly how Lady Gaga's character interacts with the inhabitants of Nevermore Academy and the larger Addams Family universe when "Wednesday" season 2 part 2 debuts on Netflix on September 3. Tom's Guide will keep you posted on all things related to the final batch of season 2 episodes, including character details, new teaser clips, plot points and more.
