As the weather gets colder and the nights are drawing in, there’s never been a more perfect excuse to stay in and stream some TV.

This week you can expect a classic spin-off, an action thriller and a documentary exploring the events of a tragic moment.

Here’s what’s in store from Netflix, Apple TV+ and Paramount+ this week.

Wednesday

Netflix

Tim Burton and The Addams Family is a marriage made in macabre heaven, so when you add in a score from the impeccable Danny Elfman you can rest assured that this spin-off from the beloved gothic family business is in safe hands.

Catherine Zeta-Jones makes a spookily sultry Morticia but the main event is Jenna Ortega, above, as daughter Wednesday, packed off to a peculiar boarding school where she soon makes a mark as the kookiest of the kooks.

Available today.

Elite

Netflix

Let’s say a cheery ola! to season six of this delicious tapas of a class-based Spanish saga, with Valentina Zenere, below. And, by ‘class-based’, we mean the friction between the rich and poor students at a swanky academy where the pupils frequently rub each other up the wrong way.

Available now.

Echo 3

Apple TV+

Luke Evans stars in action thriller Echo 3 (Picture: Apple TV+)

Luke Evans, above, is in tough-guy mode in this action thriller from Mark Boal. Evans plays Bambi, a battle-hardened special ops soldier who has to bury the hatchet with his brother-in-law, Prince (Michiel Huisman), when their scientist sister/wife Amber is kidnapped by rebels in Colombia. The dialogue drags its knuckles but there’s plenty of action here.

Episodes 1-3 available today.
