Monday brings a handful of solid additions across the major streaming platforms. The headline: a beloved Hulu comedy finally arrives on Netflix, a sharp British original premieres on Hulu, and an Oscar winner continues its second weekend on the big red platform. Here's everything worth knowing.

Netflix: Shrill Finally Arrives, Sesame Street Returns

The biggest drop today is Shrill, which brings all three seasons of the Aidy Bryant-led comedy to Netflix. Originally a Hulu original that ran from 2019 to 2021, the series is based on Lindy West's memoir Shrill: Notes from a Loud Woman and follows Annie, a young woman trying to find her voice while juggling a demanding boss, a complicated personal life, and the endless noise of being a woman in the modern world. Bryant is genuinely funny here — sharp, self-deprecating, and never afraid to let Annie be messy. All 22 episodes are available now.

Also landing on Netflix today is Sesame Street Volume 3, adding more episodes of the iconic children's series to the platform's growing library.

And if you haven't caught it yet, Poor Things — Yorgos Lanthimos's Oscar-winning dark comedy starring Emma Stone — dropped on Netflix just yesterday. It's a wild, visually extravagant ride through a reanimated woman's journey of self-discovery, and it holds up beautifully on rewatch. If you missed it in theaters, now's the time.

Hulu: Alice & Steve Premieres

Alice & Steve debuts its first season on Hulu today, and it's worth a look. The British comedy stars Nicola Walker and Jemaine Clement as two long-estranged siblings forced back into each other's lives. Created by Sophie Goodhart and directed by Tom Kingsley, the series leans into the awkwardness and resentment of family bonds without getting saccharine about it. TechRadar's review calls Walker "the best thing about this complicated, feud-filled comedy" — and that's saying something when you're sharing scenes with Clement. All episodes of Season 1 are streaming now.

Disney+: Doctor on the Edge Continues

Doctor on the Edge drops a new episode on Disney+ today. The medical docuseries has been building an audience since its premiere, and today's installment continues the season's run.

Peacock: Sports and Documentary Premieres

Peacock adds two new entries today: Purina's Incredible Dog Challenge 2026, the annual canine athletics competition, and El Mundial es Nuestro, a sports documentary special.
