Top Streaming Picks: Tina Fey and Steve Carell in The Four Seasons, Yes, Chef! & More

I’m excited to share some great streaming options coming up this week! Get ready for action, drama, and even a dash of comedy with these new releases.

First up, “Another Simple Favor” takes Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick to Italy for a wedding and some mafia intrigue. Directed by Paul Feig, this film promises murder, betrayal, and plenty of martinis. Premiering on Prime Video on May 1, this movie got rave reviews at the South by Southwest Film Festival.

For those looking for an intense and thought-provoking watch, “Nickel Boys” is a must-see on Prime Video starting April 29. This adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer-winning novel tells the story of two boys at a brutal reform school in the Jim Crow South from a first-person perspective. It was even Oscar-nominated for best picture and best adapted screenplay.

If you’re in the mood for something a bit more low-key but just as engaging, check out “La Cocina” on MUBI on Friday, May 2. This indie film offers a behind-the-scenes look at a kitchen staff during the lunch rush at a busy Times Square restaurant. Directed by Alonso Ruizpalacios, this film weaves a tale of missing money and interpersonal drama between an undocumented chef and the waitress he loves.

And don’t miss out on the star-studded reunion of Tina Fey and Steve Carell in the Netflix series “The Four Seasons.” Premiering soon, this comedy-drama follows three couples as they take four seasonal vacations together. With a talented cast including Fey, Carell, Will Forte, and more, this show is sure to be a hit.

Lastly, foodies will rejoice at the new cooking competition “Yes, Chef!” on NBC. Celebrity judges Martha Stewart and José Andrés will evaluate 12 professional chefs as they compete in high-stakes culinary challenges for a chance to win a $250,000 grand prize. The show premieres on Monday and streams on Peacock the following day.

Whether you’re in the mood for a thrilling mystery, a heartfelt drama, or some cooking competition fun, there’s something for everyone in the world of streaming entertainment this week. Grab your popcorn and get ready for some quality TV time!
