2. 'Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story'
Wednesday on Netflix: Britain's own Bonnie and Clyde were possibly driven by the notion that the couple that kills together, stays together. Recently released law enforcement tapes, the killers' own words, and candid first-person accounts assemble the true story of wedded serial killers matched in love and cruelty. The beloveds met at a bus stop when Rose was only 15. The notorious couple, who parented multiple surviving children together, became notorious for committing at least 12 joint murders of young women in Gloucester, England, between 1967 and 1987. They typically buried their dead victims in the garden or cellar of 25 Cromwell St., their so-called 'House of Horrors,' which was also the scene of gross domestic violence. Shivers aplenty.

4. 'Overcompensating'
Thursday on Prime Video: Benny (star/creator Benito Skinner), a freshman college football player deep in the closet, overcompensates by presenting as the butch athlete on campus. Over eight comic episodes, Benny tries to out-bro the bros, scoring on the field while playing around with attractive coeds. But, as his dates go bust, a confused Benny becomes increasingly aware of his attraction to men. He initially struggles against his true desires, only to realize he's a lover, not a fighter.
5. 'Tucci in Italy'
Sunday at 8 p.m. on National Geographic: 'Conclave' actor Stanley Tucci has found his sweet spot. It's playing himself while hosting television culinary travelogues, like CNN's Emmy-winning travel and food series 'Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy.' Now, the voluble Italian-American New Yorker continues his odyssey for a new National Geographic five-part series. Tucci's taste for food, curiosity about local culture and history, outgoing personality, and connection with local people make for a tasty TV recipe.

How to watch WWE SummerSlam from anywhere SummerSlam fans who are outside the location where their streaming service works can still tune in with the help of a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs are cybersecurity tools that enable people to alter their virtual locations. So if you happen to be away from the UK or Canada at the moment, for example, you can still watch via Netflix with a VPN. They're popular apps among those hoping to access their usual websites and apps while traveling abroad or boost their online privacy and security. As far as VPNs go, our top recommendation is consistently NordVPN. We've found that it can work with various websites and apps, like those mentioned above, and has some top-notch security features in its long-term contracts, which can help boost your day-to-day safety on the internet. Plus, it's a beginner-friendly option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can read more about it in our NordVPN review, and see below to learn how to use a VPN. How to use a VPN Sign up for a VPN if you don't already have one. Install it on the device you're using to watch. Turn it on and set it to the location of your streaming service, like the UK or Canada. Log in to your Netflix account. Enjoy the program! Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
