It’s the middle of December, and the streaming landscape is looking almost as barren as network television. There are just not a lot of new programs to go around this month, even when considering all of the major streamers. Fortunately, Netflix had the good sense to hold back some new episodes of The Crown‘s final season for just such an occasion. These episodes will wrap up the entire series, so savor them while you can.

The only other notable addition this week is the second season of Prime Video’s Reacher, which should make the action fans in your family happy. Alternatively, you can catch up with last week’s new additions, including Max’s obscure German drama, Boom Boom Bruno, and Apple TV+’s John Lennon: Murder Without a Trial.

Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, Max, Apple TV+, Disney+, Paramount+, and Peacock have had a great track record of keeping us entertained this year. Hopefully the impact of the writers and actors strike won’t leave us with too many barren weeks in 2024. That alone should get you to consider signing up for the ad-supported tiers, since you shouldn’t pay full price if the streamers aren’t giving you new shows every week. For now, here’s our weekly roundup of the best new shows to stream.

When you’re done here, check out the best new movies to stream this week, as well as the best shows on Netflix, best shows on Hulu, best shows on Amazon Prime Video, and best shows on Disney+.
