Now that the calendar has turned to April, streaming services are delivering new and returning shows every week. These next two months are always a busy time for television, as the eligibility period for the 2026 Emmys ends on May 31, 2026. The fifth and final season HBO Max comedy show will certainly compete for home honors this fall.
Prime Video is also saying goodbye to one of its most popular shows. The ambitious superhero series is ending after its fifth season. As for our top pick, it’s unknown if this third season will be the last. With an A-list cast, it will be difficult to bring them back for another season, which could mean the end of the road for HBO’s landmark teen drama. Add these five shows to your weekend playlist.

Malcolm in the Middle: Life is still unfair
Malcolm and his crazy family are back
It’s been nearly 20 years since Frankie Muniz last starred Malcolm in the middleThe beloved Fox sitcom that ran for seven seasons from 2000 to 2006. Like many of you, I’m wary when I read about potential reboots and revivals of old TV shows. Because I enjoyed it Malcolm in the middle During its initial release, I held out hope that most of the original cast would return. Aside from Dewey, the OG cast is back for the revival, so I’m looking forward to his return.
In Malcolm in the Middle: Life is still unfair, Things look a little different for the titular Malcolm (Muniz). He has a daughter (Keely Karsten) and a girlfriend (Kiana Madeira). Most importantly, he is away from his family. That’s about to change when Hal (Bryan Cranston) and Lois (Jane Kaczmarek) order Malcolm to attend his 40th birthday party. Sorry, Malcolm, but the chaos you’ve been avoiding for two decades will soon be back. Life is really unfair.

Hacks season 5
A final hurray for Deborah Vance
All funny things must come to an end. HacksHBO Max’s Emmy-winning comedy will end after season 5. In the season 4 finale, the tabloids mistakenly wrote that Deborah Vance (Jean Smart) was dead. Obviously, this is not true, but the unpleasant obituary opened Deborah’s eyes to her legacy. In season 5, a motivated Deborah and Ava (Hannah Einbinder) head to Sin City to revive their comedy careers.
Hacks It’s been a huge success for HBO Max. The chemistry between Smart and Einbinder is so good that I hope they work together on another project in the future. From an Emmy perspective, Smart makes a perfect play in the Emmy category for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. For her role as Deborah Vance, Smart won four Emmys, one for each season. Can he do five?
Hacks The premiere of the 5th season took place on April 9. Episodes will debut weekly, with two new episodes on April 30 and May 7. The finale of the series will be broadcast on May 28. Stream on HBO Max.

Boys season 5
Will Supes win?
After four seasons, the battle between the Supers and the Boys will come to an end Boys last season. All eyes will be on the anticipated showdown between Homelander (Antoni Starr) and Butcher (Karl Urban). Homelander may go down as one of the defining television characters of the last 10 years. Evil Supe gives me chills every time he comes on screen, thanks to Starr’s amazing performance.
If you think about it Boys He will save the surprises until the end, think again. I won’t spoil the character name, but a familiar face dies in the opening episode this season. This leads me to believe more death is on the way, which would be appropriate for such a brutal show. Considering how many shows are afraid to kill off major characters, I respect that Boys a decision to go against the grain.
Here are the first two episodes of season 5 of The Boys now streaming on Prime Video. New episodes will be released weekly until the finale on May 20.

Rue (Zendaya) is a drug addict; Nate (Eloridi) works in real estate; and Cassie (Sweeney), now married to Nate, becomes an OnlyFans model.
