This weekend is shaping up to be a big one in the world of streaming entertainment, with plenty of options to keep you entertained when you’re not glued to the Super Bowl. One new movie making waves is “Ella McCay,” directed by James L. Brooks and now available on Disney+ and Hulu. Starring Emma Mackey as the title character, this political comedy filmed in Rhode Island and promises to deliver some laughs.

For those looking for a lighter option, the annual “Puppy Bowl” is back and cuter than ever. This adorable competition featuring furry friends will air on Animal Planet, Discovery, TBS, and truTV, as well as streaming on HBO Max and discovery+.

HBO is also releasing new episodes of popular shows like “Industry” and “A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms” early this week due to the Super Bowl. And if you’re in the mood for some sports action beyond football, check out the Netflix docuseries “Glitter & Gold: Ice Dancing” to get you in the Winter Olympics spirit.

If you’re in the mood for a movie night, consider rewatching the Oscar-winning film “Spotlight,” which is currently streaming for free on Tubi. It’s a great way to honor the 10th anniversary of the film’s big win while enjoying a compelling true story.

So, whether you’re in the mood for comedy, cuteness, drama, or sports, there’s something for everyone to enjoy while streaming this weekend. Grab your popcorn, settle in, and get ready for a weekend of top-notch entertainment!
