The top 3 new Paramount+ series to binge-watch this weekend, October 9–11, 2026, include Tom Hardy's crime masterpiece that's trending #1 worldwide. Other great streaming options on Paramount+ this weekend are the sequel debut of a beloved animated series and Sylvester Stallone's critically acclaimed mob show created by Taylor Sheridan that's just one week away from its season 4 premiere. Earlier this week, some of the best shows to binge on Paramount+ included season 2 of the popular Yellowstone sequel series Marshals, all six seasons of This Is Us, and several new NCIS installments, including the first-ever spinoff series set in New York. Other great choices include Lioness season 3, which still remains a streaming hit weeks after its finale, and Dexter: Resurrection ahead of its season 2 premiere in late October. Until then, these three new Paramount+ series are what we'll be watching this weekend. Avatar: Seven Havens Avatar: Seven Havens is one of the most exciting new releases on Paramount+ this weekend, releasing its first three of thirteen episodes this Friday, October 9. The series, which has already been renewed for a second season ahead of its season 1 premiere, will then drop weekly batches of new episodes until Friday, October 30. Avatar: Seven Havens is co-created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko, who developed the original fan-favorite series, Avatar: The Last Airbender. Avatar: Seven Havens is the second official animated sequel series of the 2005 original and the first to be produced since The Legend of Korra concluded in 2014. This new chapter follows a young Earthbender who discovers that she is the new post-Korra Avatar after a cataclysmic event. If you enjoyed the original Avatar: The Last Airbender and its first sequel, you don't want to miss the first Avatar canon expansion series in 12 years this weekend, only on Paramount+. Tulsa King The Tulsa King season 4 premiere is officially one week away from hitting Paramount+ on October 16, 2026, making this weekend the perfect time to catch up or refresh before then. Created by Taylor Sheridan, Tulsa King follows Sylvester Stallone as a mob boss named Dwight Manfredi who is initially transferred by his New York mafia to Tulsa, Oklahoma. The first three seasons of Tulsa King show Dwight's rise to power and a feared and respected businessman with a loyal gang of associates who are not afraid to get their hands dirty. Although Sheridan no longer works directly on Tulsa King, it has been one of his most successful series on Paramount+, spawning at least five seasons and the upcoming spinoff series, NOLA King, which will star Samuel L. Jackson and take place in New Orleans. Tulsa King is already trending on Paramount+'s worldwide viewership chart ahead of its season 4 premiere, currently sitting in the #5 spot. Tulsa King is also one of Sheridan's most critically acclaimed series, earning an 87% Rotten Tomatoes score, which it will hope to improve on with its season 4 premiere dropping next Friday. MobLand Tom Hardy's epic crime masterpiece MobLand is the best show to watch on Paramount+ this weekend, with its fourth of ten season 2 episodes arriving on Friday, October 9. Already renewed for a third season, MobLand remains the #1 most-watched series on Paramount+ following its season 2 premiere back on September 18. If you haven't already started watching this sophisticated and gritty crime drama, now is the perfect time to catch up, as season 2 is off to a great start with Hardy returning as the London-based fixer Harry Da Souza. MobLand season 2 earned a strong 90% Rotten Tomatoes score, up from season 1's 77% rating, which is a clear indication that the latest season has only gotten better. New episodes of MobLand season 2 will be released every Friday until its finale drops on November 20. If you enjoy dark crime dramas with gangster/mob elements and crafty writing with a sharply paced plot to sink your teeth into, then MobLand – which is co-directed by Guy Ritchie – is the absolute best show to watch on Paramount+ this weekend as it continues its global streaming dominance.
