Stream it now on Paramount+
Paramount+ is a great place to go to if you're looking for a weekend binge-watch. Sure, it also has movies and live sports, but Paramount's streaming service is constantly adding new shows or new episodes of ongoing series every week. It's not just new original shows, either; the streamer also pulls in new shows from Paramount's networks, like CBS, as well as coproductions with international studios.
This weekend, I've got three shows worthy of your next binge session. "The Madison" is the latest series from Taylor Sheridan, and while I was highly critical in my review, I know people love watching shows from the "Yellowstone" creator. You can stream all six episodes starting this Saturday (March 21). If you love reality shows, I've got a pair of options you can stream. "Canada Shore" is a "Jersey Shore" spiritual sequel set in a British Columbia lakehouse, and it just wrapped its first season. The reality competition show "The Challenge" season 41, meanwhile, is finally arriving on Paramount+ after its initial run on MTV last year.
So without further ado, here are the three new to Paramount+ shows you need to binge-watch this weekend. If you need more recommendations, check out everything coming to Paramount+ in March 2026 for more options.
'The Madison'
Genre: Drama series
What's it about? The Clyburn family, led by Preston (Kurt Russell) and Stacy (Michelle Pfeiffer), is suddenly forced to abandon New York for Montana when a disaster strikes their family.
Why you should watch it: If you like "Yellowstone," then this latest show from Taylor Sheridan might scratch that itch for you. In my review of "The Madison," I found it to be too heavy melodrama and social commentary, but there's no denying that it looks gorgeous.
Stream all six episodes of "The Madison" season 1 on Paramount+ starting March 21 (first three episodes streaming now)
'Canada Shore'
Genre: Reality series
What's it about? "Canada Shore" is set in the lakeside city of Kelowna, British Columbia, and centers around 12 housemates. But while these fine Canadians all hail from the land of Tim Hortons, they can still cause plenty of drama.
Why you should watch it: If you were a fan of "Jersey Shore," this is basically the same show, just set in Canada. You can now stream the entire first season, making it a perfect easy binge.

'The Challenge' season 41
Genre: Reality competition series
What's it about? 16 "The Challenge" veterans and 16 newcomers have to team up in pairs to take each other down in this grueling athletic reality competition series.
Why you should watch it: "The Challenge" used to be a giant party where social skills were key. Now, it's far more about athletic skill, but making enemies in the house still matters if you want to win. This is one of my guilty pleasure shows, and season 41 was excellent.
