5 top new on Netflix shows and movies to watch this week — 'Wednesday' season 2, 'Stolen: Heist of the Century' and more

Netflix isn't adding a ton of new shows and movies this week. It's honestly the slowest week I've seen for the streaming service that I can remember. But maybe that's what happens when you have to clear out for the phenomenon that is "Wednesday." The horror comedy spinoff of "The Addams Family" is one of the biggest Netflix originals ever, with season 1 making lead actress Jenna Ortega a star. Season 2, part 1, arrives this week, with the rest of the season coming in September. It's not the only must-watch show this week, though. "Stolen: Heist of the Century" investigates a 2003 diamond heist that remains one of the biggest thefts to this day. You won't want to miss it. For more to watch, read on for my top picks, a full list of everything new on Netflix this week and the scoop on what's leaving Netflix this week. If you need more, check out our guide to everything new to Netflix in August, or take a look at this new romantic drama movie that was one of the biggest new arrivals last week. As already mentioned, "Wednesday" season 2 is by far the most anticipated show or movie on Netflix this week. It's honestly probably the biggest show or movie this entire month and maybe the entire year. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. A big reason that's the case is Jenna Ortega's performance as the iconic Wednesday Addams. Yes, the writing is fun, the murder mystery of the first season is compelling, but without Ortega, there's a chance that this show doesn't work, let alone become a sensation. Now, Ortega is back as Wednesday and she's back at Nevermore Academy. But this season, she needs to solve a murder before it happens, because she might be the one who is the killer. Check out the first six minutes of this gloriously unhinged season if you dare. Watch on Netflix starting Aug. 6 In 2003, one of the vaults in the Antwerp Diamond District was broken into, with an estimated more than $100 million in diamonds and other valuables lifted from the vault. But how did these criminals get in and get out without needing violence or brute force? That's what "Stolen: Heist of the Century" seeks to answer. So tune in this week to learn more about who did it, how, why and if the stolen merchandise was ever recovered. Watch on Netflix starting Aug. 8 August is here, and that means college football is about to start in America. In fact, NFL preseason football has already begun. When it comes to college football in America, though, there's one conference that's synonymous with excellence in the sport: the Southeastern Conference. The Big Ten may have a few contenders, but pound-for-pound, nobody can compete with the SEC. So, before the 2025 season starts, go behind the scenes on the 2024 season with "SEC Football: Any Given Saturday." Watch on Netflix starting Aug. 5 "Love Life" is a tale of two seasons. The first season centers around Darby Carter (Anna Kendrick), starting with a one-night stand she has with Augie (Jin Ha). It turns into a relationship, but it doesn't last, and the season then continues to follow Darby's love life until she finally meets the love of her life. But this romantic comedy show is an anthology series, so in season 2, it starts over again, this time following Marcus (William Jackson Harper), a married book editor who comes to realize his wife may not have been the right person for him. Here's the thing, though: These two seasons were received drastically differently by critics and audiences. On Rotten Tomatoes, season 1 scored a mere 63% with critics but a fairly decent 83% with audiences. Then season 2 flipped the trend, scoring an impressive 95% with critics but falling flat with audiences. You'll have to watch both seasons to see which resonates with you more. Watch on Netflix starting Aug. 5 Speaking of rom-coms that critics and audiences didn't see eye-to-eye on, "Marry Me" hits Netflix this week, and if you love a rom-com, audiences argue that it's a must-watch. If you missed this movie when it came out in 2022, here's the rundown. It's based on a 2012 webcomic of the same title and stars Jennifer Lopez as pop superstar Kat Valdez. She is going to marry her musical partner and fiancé, Bastian (Maluma), on stage at a concert in front of her biggest fans, but right before the ceremony is about to happen, she learns he has been having an affair. Enter math teacher Charlie Gilbert (Owen Wilson), who is at the concert to spend time with his daughter, Lou (Chloe Coleman). He, too, learns of the affair, and on a whim, holds up a "Marry Me" sign. Totally flustered, Kat sees it — and says yes. You'll have to watch to see if they manage to go the distance. Watch on Netflix starting Aug. 10 AUGUST 5 "SEC Football: Any Given Saturday" (Netflix series) Follow college football's most elite players and coaches in this unfiltered documentary series that goes behind the scenes of the 2024 SEC season. AUGUST 6 "Wednesday" season 2 part 1 (Netflix series) Wednesday Addams returns to prowl the Gothic halls of Nevermore Academy, where fresh foes and woes await. AUGUST 8 "Stolen: Heist of the Century" (GB) (Netflix documentary) Antwerp, 2003. A gang of thieves rob the impenetrable Diamond Center.

3 top new shows to stream this week on Netflix, Hulu and more (Aug. 4-10)

Something creepy this way comes — and no, it's not just your neighbor's Halloween decor going up in August. With new shows premiering on Netflix, Hulu and other streaming services, this week's TV lineup brings a little fright, a little nostalgia and a whole lot of awkward. 'Wednesday' returns with more gothic twists (and maybe a death prophecy), 'King of the Hill' rises from the cancellation grave with season 14, and 'Platonic' proves that adult friendship is still as complicated — and hilarious — as ever. Here are our top picks for new TV shows to watch this week. All hail the return of the 'King.' Fifteen years after Fox canceled it, 'King of the Hill' is back, aged up and as sharp as ever. Season 14 picks up years after the original run, with Hank and Peggy Hill returning from a stint in Saudi Arabia to find that Arlen, Texas, has changed. Bobby's now 21 and thriving as a chef in Dallas, while old frenemies like Kahn (Ronny Chieng) haven't mellowed a bit. This revival is exactly what 2025 needs. Turns out, you can go home again ... and it's gonna be wonderfully weird. All 10 episodes premiere Monday, Aug. 4 at 12 a.m. ET on Hulu Adult friending is hard. Just ask Will (Seth Rogen) and Sylvia (Rose Byrne), who return for more bad decisions, midlife crises and all the alcohol in the world. He's newly engaged to a tech mogul; she's somehow roped into planning the wedding. (Narrator: This can't end well.) Season 2 also brings in some new comic reinforcements: Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney and Beck Bennett. Some friendships age like fine wine; others explode like a shaken beer can. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Episodes 1-2 premiere Wednesday, Aug. 6 at 12 a.m. ET on Apple TV Plus Time for Wednesday Addams to go back to school, and things at Nevermore are even more twisted this time around. Season 2 finds Wednesday (Jenna Ortega) dodging fans and dark visions — one of which involves the possible death of her roommate Enid (Emma Myers). Not only is Wednesday plunged into another supernatural mystery, she's also stuck navigating her unpredictable powers, an increasingly meddlesome family (hello, Grandmama), and a new principal played by Steve Buscemi. Romance is out, gore is in, and yes, Lady Gaga is making a cameo. All 4 episodes premiere Wednesday, Aug. 6 at 3 a.m. ET on Netflix

Fred Armisen Reveals What He Learned from Jenna Ortega While Working on 'Wednesday '(Exclusive)

The 'SNL' alum, 58, plays Uncle Fester on the hit Netflix seriesNEED TO KNOW Fred Armisen, 58, reveals what he learned from Wednesday costar Jenna Ortega while speaking exclusively to PEOPLE at the season 2, Part One London world premiere Armisen, who plays Uncle Fester in the hit Netflix show, says Ortega, 22, taught him to be more 'meticulous' as an actor Wednesday season 2, Part One debuts on Aug. 6, followed by Part Two on Sept. 3Fred Armisen says he picked up an important lesson from his Wednesday costar Jenna Ortega while filming season 2 of the hit Netflix show. Armisen, who plays Uncle Fester on the series, spoke to PEOPLE exclusively while attending the Wednesday season 2, Part One World Premiere in London on July 30. During the conversation at Central Hall Westminster, the SNL alum shares that Ortega, 22, inspired him to be more 'meticulous' and 'pay attention' as a scene partner. "It's great watching Jenna, because she keeps track of the script in this way that she understands the logic of her character,' Armisen, 58, says. He adds, 'It's not like she just shows up and it's like, 'I'm just gonna do this character.' She's like, 'Why does this moment count? So she's very meticulous, and it makes me want to be more like her. I'm like, 'No, I gotta [...] pay attention.' ' The comedian goes on to share one of his favorite behind-the-scenes moments while filming the upcoming season. 'There was a scene in the insane asylum, and it's raining and it really felt like 'Wow. I'm really on a TV show,' you know? This fake rain and lightning and stuff, and it, it just makes me feel like if I was a little kid watching myself, I'd be like, 'Wow, I'm really on a TV show.' ' Armisen isn't the only Wednesday actor to rave about Ortega's talent and work ethic. Season 2 star Steve Buscemi called the actress 'the best' while speaking exclusively to PEOPLE while attending the Family Dinner fundraising event hosted by Exploring the Arts in New York City in April. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. 'Oh, she's great,' Buscemi, 67, told PEOPLE at the time. 'She's just, she's so sharp and funny and down to earth. And just a wonderful actress, a wonderful scene partner. The best.' Christina Ricci — who played Wednesday in the original Tim Burton Addams Family films, and who also appears in season 1 of Wednesday as Marilyn Thornhill — echoed the sentiment while speaking to Variety back in 2022. 'Jenna is incredible," Ricci, 45, said of Ortega. "I saw some of the wardrobe photos before I went [to set], so I knew [what she looked like in character] and I was like, it's such a great modern take on Wednesday." The season 2 London premiere was a star-studded affair, with appearances by Ortega, Buscemi, Emma Myers, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Joy Sunday, Tim Burton and more. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! Season 2, Part One of Wednesday debuts on Netflix on Wednesday, Aug. 6, followed by Part Two on Wednesday, Sept. 3. Season 1 of Wednesday is currently available to stream in full on Netflix. Read the original article on People
