Imelda Staunton in The Crown; Chris Rock and Kevin Hart
Welcome to What’s On, our weekly picks of must-watch shows. Here’s what you need to watch from Sunday, December 10 to Thursday, December 14. All times are Eastern. [Note: The weekend edition of What’s On drops on Fridays.]
The Crown joins the list of prestige dramas that concluded their run in 2023, as the acclaimed Netflix series finishes for good with the second half of its sixth season. The six new episodes follow the royal family after the death of Diana (Elizabeth Debicki). Peter Morgan’s series wraps with a look at the early romance of Prince William (Ed McVey) and Kate Middleton (Meg Bellamy), Prince Charles’ (Dominic West) wedding to Camilla (Olivia Williams), and Princess Margaret’s (Lesley Manville) death, among other events. Look for The A.V. Club’s review this week.
Hidden gems
Under Pressure: The U.S. Women’s World Cup Team (Netflix, Tuesday, 3:01 a.m.)
Emmy winner Rebecca Gitlitz directs the sports docuseries Under Pressure: The U.S. Women’s World Cup. The four episodes track the lives of players like Lindsey Horan, Alyssa Thompson, and Lynn Williams, offering an in-depth perspective on the team’s dramatic FIFA journey and its fight for equal pay.
Born In Synanon (Paramount+, Tuesday, 3:01 a.m.)
The four-part docuseries Born In Synanon centers on Cassidy Arkin, who was born in 1974 into an abusive cult called Synanon. Founded by Chuck Dederich, it morphed from a substance-abuse treatment program into an extremely dangerous community in California that, among other things, required vasectomies and accumulated weapons.
Yu Yu Hakusho (Netflix, Thursday, 3:01 a.m.)
More than 30 years after its debut, the Japanese manga series Yu Yu Hakusho gets a live-action adaptation courtesy of director Shô Tsukikawa. The show follows Yusuke Urameshi (Takumi Kitamura), who dies in a car accident but gets the chance to return to the land of the living. The catch is he’ll have to play detective and try and figure out if demons are roaming the planet (spoiler: they sure are). The A.V. Club’s review publishes this week.
