Set in New York City during the 1880s, it follows New York’s upper crust caught up in the usual mix of romance, family drama and social standing. As Bertha Russell (Carrie Coon) works to mend her marriage to George (Morgan Spector), Agnes van Rhijn (Christine Baranski) spots an opportunity to reclaim her place among New York’s elite by hosting a dinner for President Grover Cleveland (guest star Jim Gaffigan). Meanwhile, Marian (Louisa Jacobson) and Larry (Harry Richardson) work to rebuild their relationship, while Peggy (Denée Benton) gets ready to marry Dr. Kirkland. There’s just one problem: his mother (Phylicia Rashad), who has no shortage of opinions and isn't afraid to share them.Why you should watch it: What I love most about “The Gilded Age” is that it knows exactly what kind of show it wants to be. It tackles more serious subjects without losing sight of the extravagant parties and deliciously vicious social rivalries that make this period drama such a fun watch to get swept up in.Watch "The Gilded Age" season four on HBO Max nowSign up to the weekly Tom's Streaming Guide to stay in the loop with the latest releases and top recommendations across your favorite streaming services. We’ve got you covered with a complete guide on what’s worth watching.'American Hostage' (MGM+) American Hostage Season 1 Trailer - YouTube Watch On Genre: Psychological thriller seriesWhat it's about: Based on the acclaimed first season of the scripted podcast of the same name, “American Hostage” is a 1970s-set psychological thriller inspired by a terrifying true story. The series stars Jon Hamm as Fred Heckman, a beloved Indianapolis radio reporter who gets in way over his head when hostage-taker Tony Kiritsis (Giovanni Ribisi) demands an interview on his popular radio news program, dragging Heckman into a tense, life-or-death standoff.Why you should watch it: Though inspired by real events, the MGM+ series takes the story further, turning it into a gripping, character-focused thriller that delves into the complex dynamic between Heckman and Kiritsis as their increasingly tense conversations play out. In the show's tense and poignant conclusion, Fred must do everything he can to keep Tony alive (and keep his dead-man's switch from triggering) when they’re thrust into the spotlight.Watch "American Hostage" on MGM+ nowYour streaming guide: Friday, Oct. 30Here's everything coming to streaming today, broken down by streaming service:NETFLIX"100 días para enamorarnos" season 1"A Sudden Case of Christmas""Air Force One""Barbie in the Nutcracker""The Best Christmas Pageant Ever""Bridesmaids""Cliffhanger""The Croods""The Day After Tomorrow""El Chema" season 1"Falsa identidad" seasons 1-2"Fury""Ghosting: The Spirit of Christmas""Happy’s Place" season 2"Insidious: Chapter 2""Insidious: Chapter 3""Looper""Mistletoe Murders" seasons 1-2"The Mummy""No Sleep 'Til Christmas""Public Enemies""Rectify" seasons 1-4"The Red Road" seasons 1-2"Resident Evil""Resident Evil: Apocalypse""Richard Jewell""Same Time, Next Christmas""Stand by Me""Weekend at Bernie's""Whiplash"PRIME VIDEOiZombie S1-S5 (2015)A Belle For Christmas (2014)A Christmas Carol (1999)A Christmas Wedding Tail (2011)A Different Kind Of Christmas (1996)A Hobo's Christmas (1987)A Shot In The Dark (1964)A Very Barry Christmas (2008)A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas (2011)A Wonderful Christmas (2005)Agent Cody Banks (2003)Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London (2004)All Dogs Go To Heaven (1989)All Mine To Give (1957)American Made (2017)Annie Hall (1977)Bad Santa (2003)Bad Santa 2 (2016)Be Cool (2005)Blink Twice (2024)California Straight Ahead (1937)Chance Of Snow (2002)Christmas Classics: O' Christmas Tree (1999)Christmas In Connecticut (1945)Christmas In Paradise (2022)Darkest Hour (2017)Dear Santa (2024)Deck The Halls (2011)Duck Soup (1933)Elf (2003)Elf: Buddy's Musical Christmas (2014)Get Shorty (1995)Good Will Hunting (1998)Gretel & Hansel (2020)Hang 'Em High (1968)Holiday Affair (1949)Hot Tub Time Machine (2010)Hot Tub Time Machine 2 (2015)I Cover The War (1937)If You Believe (1999)I'll Be Home For Christmas (1998)Imitation Of Life (1959)In The Heat Of The Night (1967)It Happened On Fifth Avenue (1947)iZombie S1-S5 (2015)Jack Frost (1979)Jeepers Creepers (2001)Jeepers Creepers 2 (2003)Jesus Revolution (2023)Jet Pilot (1957)Jingle All The Way (1996)Last Holiday (2006)Last Tango In Paris (1973)Let's Have Kids (2026)Like A Boss (2020)Mean Girls (2004)Mermaids (1990)No Hard Feelings (2023)Nothing Like The Holidays (2008)Reap The Wild Wind (1942)Reindeer In Here (2022)Remember The Night (1940)Robin Hood (2010)Rudolph And Frosty's Christmas In July (2014)Rudolph's Shiny New Year (2013)Santa Who?
