Do you Super Bowl?Entertainment has hit critical mass over the last decade, with more shows and movies being produced and released than ever before. It’s impossible to keep up with everything hitting the digital space, whether it be Premium Video on Demand (PVOD) or a traditional streaming network. With that in mind, we figured it was well past time for us to whip up a little something to help you keep up (and catch up) with all there is to watch in the big, wide world of digital viewing. And thus, the Streaming Rewind was born!
We’ll update this list at the end of each week so you can check out what you may have missed, and what’s coming up on the weekend. We’ll keep it a mix of popular releases and noteworthy lesser-known titles to help you find what’s worth taking the risk on as well as dive into a few things that we loved and why we loved ‘em, or just break down a show or movie that left us with some opinions. Sometimes, we’ll even have guest entries from other members of the IGN staff. If you’re not interested in all that and just want to see a bulleted list of what’s out there, pop on down to the New and Noteworthy and ICYMI sections.
Severance Asks Big Questions (ongoing, Apple TV+)Apple TV+’s psychological drama/mystery series is pushing towards the middle of its second season, and it’s bringing big themes with it. This week’s Severance, while light on goats, explores questions of autonomy between innies and outies in major ways, but it doesn’t quite reconcile those questions just yet. It’s not out of character, given that Severance has always been more of a slow-burn kind of series, but it’s definitely an episode of television that will leave you screaming at the characters to use their words. We spoke to stars Adam Scott, Britt Lower, Zach Cherry, and Tramell Tillman as well as creator Dan Erickson about Season 2, Episode 4’s big twist, so be sure to check that out once the episode drops on Friday.
Invincible Is Back (February 6, Prime Video) Invincible is back, this time with a normal gap between seasons and a reasonable release schedule that doesn’t leave fans wondering where the heck the rest of the story is. In Season 3, Mark (Steven Yeun) is going to be forced to reconcile not just with his past, but with his future as well. Definitely not an ominous synopsis for a character who also happens to be desperately trying to balance his life as a hero and a person. The first three episodes of Season 3 drop on February 6, with the remainder of the season coming weekly thereafter. Take a look at our piece on the most important new Invincible characters to expect in Season 3 before you dive into the new season.
Invincible Season 3 GalleryIt’s the Big Game! (February 9, Fox)Football isn’t really something we talk about often on IGN dot com (although raise your hand if you remember IGN Sports from back in the day), but plenty of us nerds also happen to be pretty big fans. Shout out to the two cities who are happy with this year’s outcome while the rest of us are forced to watch the exact same Super Bowl we did last year. We’re definitely not bitter*. But, while two cities go to war, the rest of us will at least have good snacks while we root for both teams to lose**. Also, the trailers! Speaking of which, why not check out our breakdowns on the Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer and Jurassic World Rebirth trailer.
*I am a Lions fan, I am very bitter.
**Go birds.
