With so many shows and movies to choose from on Australia's major streaming services, it can often be difficult to finding the best new stuff that's been added each week.
In an effort to make things easier, every Friday we'll be hand-picking the best new shows and movies that are added to Aussie streaming platforms each weekend, covering the likes of Netflix, Disney Plus, Binge, Stan and Amazon Prime Video.
Below, you'll find a list of this weekend's highlights, separated by streaming service, with binge-worthy new shows sitting alongside some great big-budget new movie arrivals – and a couple of oddball dark horse entries, just for some variety. Here are our streaming picks for week of August 28 to August 30, 2020.
Netflix
Cobra Kai: Seasons 1-2 (TV series – all episodes available August 28)
Having been in a slump since his loss at the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament, Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) decides to open his own Cobra Kai martial arts school, immediately raising red flags with his old rival, Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio), who fears Johnny will train a whole new generation of bullies. A fantastic follow-up to The Karate Kid movies, Cobra Kai's first two seasons will debut on Netflix this weekend ahead of a third season later in the year.
Aggretsuko: Season 3 (TV series - all episodes available now)
In the show's third season, the adorably angry Retsuko’s rage rises another octave when the death metal-obsessed red panda is forced to moonlight in an underground idol group to pay off the debt she's accumulated from paying her virtual boyfriend. On top of this, Retsuko is feeling the pressure of a new work promotion.
Amazon Prime Video
Knives Out (Movie – available now)
A remarkably entertaining and thoroughly modern take on the classic Agatha Christie-style 'whodunnit', Knives Out sees a southern-fried detective (Daniel Craig) tasked with solving the murder of a wealthy patriarch (Christopher Plummer). Unfortunately, nearly every member of his family has a motive. With an all-star cast that includes Ana de Armas, Chris Evans, Toni Collette, Jamie Lee Curtis, Don Johnson, Michael Shannon and more, Knives Out is about as fun as murder mysteries get.
