Netflix, Amazon, HBO Max, Paramount+ Adding 500 New Releases This Weekend: The 4 to Watch

By Phillip Swann
The TV Answer Man – Buy Me a Coffee!

Netflix, Amazon’s Prime Video, Hulu, HBO Max, Peacock and Paramount Plus this weekend (January 29-February 1, 2026) are adding more than 500 new TV shows and movies. Here are the four to watch, in my humble opinion:

If I Had Legs I’d Kick You (2025)
Where to Watch: HBO Max
When to Watch: Friday, January 30
What Kind of Movie: Drama
Who’s In It: Rose Byrne, Conan O’Brien
Rose Byrne stars in her Oscar-nominated role as a psychotherapist who needs more help than her patients due to stress over her daughter’s feeding disorder. Unable to handle the pressure, she turns to drugs, alcohol and anything else that might provide short-term relief. The film serves a great lesson about human fragility and its power to possess at a moment’s notice.

I’m Chevy Chase And You’re Not
Where to Watch: HBO Max
When to Watch: Saturday, January 31
What Kind of Show: Documentary
Who’s In It: Chevy Chase
The CNN documentary chronicles the controversial career of Chevy Chase who has become an industry outcast due to boorish behavior. CC’s catalog of comedy (Saturday Night Live, Caddyshack, National Lampoon’s Vacation, Fletch, etc.) is among the best of the last several decades but he’s definitely not having the last laugh at the age of 82. The show includes extensive interviews with the comedian who only solidifies his reputation with frequent, bitter jabs at the interviewer. (I watched the doc when it first aired on CNN, and as a longtime Chevy fan, was sadden that he can’t accept he’s his own worst enemy.)

Bridgerton (Season 4, Part One)
Where to Watch: Netflix
When to Watch: January 29, 2026
What Kind of Show: Historical soap opera
Who’s In It: Jonathan Bailey, Nicola Coughlan
Season four of the sudsy British historical romance will debut on Thursday (January 29) with the first four episodes; episodes five through eight are scheduled for February 26, 2026. Bridgerton is not my cup of tea, if you will, but season four will feature a new mysterious love interest (a maid in a silver mask) for Benedict Bridgerton (Luke Thompson). I’m told this will make Bridgerton’s female fans lose their tea. (Note: The first three seasons are now streaming on Netflix.)

68th Annual Grammy Awards
Where to Watch: Paramount Plus (With Premium sub)
Where to Watch: Sunday, February 1, 8 p.m. ET
What Kind of Show: Awards Show
Who’s In It: Trevor Noah, Sabrina Carpenter
The music industry’s annual salute to itself will air Sunday, February 1 on CBS and Paramount Plus (for subscribers with the $13.99 a month Premium plan), starting at 8 p.m. ET. Sabrina Carpenter, Leon Thomas, Kendrick Lamar, Lady Gaga, Olivia Dean, The Marías and Addison Rae are among the expected performers. Trevor Noah returns as host for the sixth and final time.
