The weeks betweenThanksgivingandChristmasare unforgiving, whether you are a student, working adult or just a holiday lover. Thankfully, studios know that too.
This weekend, Dec. 6-7, two new Christmas movies are hitting streamers to tide you over until the big day. But the holiday spirit doesn't stop the true crime or horror content — Netflix has a damning new documentary about a disgraced music mogul that has already skyrocketed to the No. 1 spot of their daily Top 10, beating out the wildly popularStranger Things.
On the lighter side, two reality shows are back as well, from anotherHousewivesinstallation to the second season of a real estate series.
And there's more! Here's a list of the eight best new movies and shows to watch this weekend and where to stream them.

A year later, he wasarrestedon charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution. In July 2025, he wasacquittedof the former two and found guilty of two counts of the latter. Now, a documentary — produced by the outspokenly anti-Diddy rapper50 Cent— delves further.
