Great Expectations
- Hulu & iPlayer enjoy new Dickens adaptation from Sunday, March 26
What the Dickens is this?
Great Expectations is another adaptation of the classic Charlies Dickens book, this starring Olivia Colman, which is about a young boy trying to become a man in the shadow of the haunting Miss Havisham.
Steven Knight, of Peaky Blinders fame, leads the adaptation, so we've high hopes for it.
Great Expectations was co-produced between the BBC and FX, which means it's being released on both sides of the Atlantic at once. You can watch it on BBC's iPlayer in the UK and Hulu in the US, as it's streaming at the same time as it's being put on live TV, and episodes are releasing weekly.

Succession season 4
- HBO Max drama series debuts new season on Sunday, March 26, and day later on Sky in UK
The HBO dark comedy-drama about a media mogul and his family’s quest to take over control of the company enters its fourth and final season.
For Logan Roy (Brian Cox), he might be calling the shots with regard to his empire but the decisions he made at the end of season 3 left his children — Kendall (Jeremy Strong), Shiv (Sarah Snook) and Roman (Kieran Culkin) — on the other side of the battlefield.
In Succession season 4, the fight for control of WaystarRoyco is on, and there will most certainly be casualties on both sides. You can stream it on HBO Max in the US, and it comes to Sky TV in the UK a day later.

The Big Door Prize
- Apple TV Plus sci-fi comedy drama starts Wednesday, March 29
The Big Door Prize is a new, warm-hearted Apple TV Plus Original comedy based on the bestselling novel (opens in new tab) by M. O. Walsh. It tells the story of a small American town that’s turned upside down by the appearance of a mysterious machine in a convenience store.
The Morpho machine promises to reveal the true potential of each and every resident living in Deerfield, Louisiana, all for just a couple of bucks, and suddenly everyone starts deciding to change their path forward…everyone except school teacher, Dusty (The IT Crowd’s Chris O’Dowd), who isn’t necessarily ready to adjust to a new culture and thinks he might be happy with the life he’s already leading.
The first three episodes will be available when The Big Door Prize premieres, with the remaining seven dropping on a weekly basis.

Unstable
- Netflix comedy lands on Thursday, March 30
Real-life father and son Rob and John Owen Lowe play fictional father and son in this gently Netflix comedy, with the full run of 8 30-minute episodes landing in one batch on March 30.
Unstable is about Ellis Dragon (Rob), successful yet eccentric business owner who's becoming more... well, unstable, after the death of his wife. To stop this his son Jackson (John Owen), a quiet and anti-social youngster, comes to work at his father's company to keep him... well, company.
Lowe and Lowe are also producers for the show, so it's certainly a father-son team both in front of and behind the camera, and apparently, the series is actually inspired by John Owen's Twitter trolling of his famous dad.

The Power
- Prime Video sci-fi drama debuts on Friday, March 31
Another big Prime Video show featuring the word 'Power', The Power is Amazon's next big streaming show.
The Power, based on a bestselling novel (opens in new tab) by Naomi Alderman, is a drama set in a world similar to ours, except all teenage girls develop the superpower to shoot electricity from their fingers at will. The story explores this world, looking at the shift in global power dynamics and how characters fare in such a world.
The show stars Toni Collette, Auli'i Cravalho and John Leguizamo, and also features Eddie Marsan, Rob Delaney and Daniela Vega. That's a big-star cast for something Amazon is presenting as its next hit.
