If you're looking for a good watch, there are some great options available on various streaming platforms. One standout is "Jay Kelly" (2025), directed by Noah Baumbach and starring George Clooney as a washed-up Hollywood star on the brink of a nervous breakdown. The film features fantastic performances from Adam Sandler and Laura Dern as Jay's long-suffering manager and publicist.
Another action-packed entry is "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning" (2025), which has Tom Cruise performing mind-blowing stunts that will keep you on the edge of your seat. While not perfect, it's still a thrilling conclusion to the franchise.
For something more low-key but no less delightful, there's "The Muppet Christmas Carol" (1992), a charming adaptation of Charles Dickens' classic tale starring Michael Caine as Ebenezer Scrooge in a hilarious and heartwarming performance.
Disney+ has also added "The Beatles Anthology," an updated version of the 1995 documentary series that gives fans a fresh perspective on the band's greatness. While some special effects can feel heavy-handed at times, this is still a must-watch for any music lover.
Finally, if you haven't had a chance to stream one of the best TV shows of the 21st century yet, now's your chance with "Mad Men" (2007-2015) available on HBO Max. Created by Matthew Weiner, the series masterfully weaves together intricate storylines that explore the evolution and devolution of ad executive Don Draper in 1960s America. Be prepared to dive into some impressive world-building and take note of a few continuity errors along the way.

, and now I have a whole season of it to devour. The fact that George Clooney is playing a washed-up star on the brink of a breakdown kind of resonates with me right about now... just kidding, sorta 
. Tom Cruise's stunts are always a thrill, but have you seen his hair in "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning"? 
I'm just imagining him trying to do a stunt while maintaining that iconic pompadour. And yay for re-releasing an old favorite like "The Muppet Christmas Carol"! Who needs original content when you can just rehash the classics, right? 
but sometimes I wish they'd dial back on the stunts and just focus on the story. And omg, "The Muppet Christmas Carol" is such a classic 
it's amazing how well they adapted the story for film. And if you're looking for something new to binge, "Mad Men" is seriously one of the best shows ever created - I'm obsessed with Don Draper's character 
. I mean, it's a classic and all but I just rewatched it last year and I'm not ready for it to be out there again 
.
and im lowkey obsessed!!! Jay Kelly tho is like my new fave watch its soooo good 
and Adam Sandler's chemistry with George Clooney is EVERYTHING 
meanwhile, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning is def a thrill ride for any action junkie 
but its not perfect lol 
cant wait to watch more classics like The Beatles Anthology & Mad Men too 
. But can someone pls remind me what the deal is with Don Draper's age in Mad Men? I always get that mixed up 
. And has anyone else noticed how different the streaming platforms are from the old TV? It's crazy to think about how much stuff we're missing out on because of streaming 
. But at the same time, it's crazy how some movies just don't age well 
. I mean, "Jay Kelly" looks like it could've been made in 2020 and not 2025 
. But sometimes I feel like he's just trying too hard to be cool 
.
. It's so refreshing to see all those behind-the-scenes stories and interviews about the band's history.
."
. And George Clooney's performance as Jay Kelly is just incredible... he's so nuanced and vulnerable at times, it's like watching a real-life meltdown 
I'm more of a "what's trending now" kinda person, you feel me? And is it really necessary to have an updated version of The Beatles Anthology when we already had one 30 years ago? 
i was on the edge of my seat watching him go through his midlife crisis 
i know some people might find the pacing a bit slow but trust me, it's worth it. also, if u love disney, they just added "The Beatles Anthology" 
- that show was so ahead of its time and really captured the essence of 60s America. But what's with all these big-budget action movies though? I mean, don't get me wrong, they're fun but sometimes you just wanna sit back and enjoy a good old fashioned rom-com 
the muppet christmas carol is cute and all but who's gonna watch that when there's actually a new movie from george clooney starring this year?? anyway, glad you mentioned mad men though been meaning to get into that for ages 
I think it's awesome that Disney+ is bringing back some classic content like "The Muppet Christmas Carol" - who doesn't love Michael Caine as Ebenezer Scrooge? 
The Beatles Anthology is gonna be so epic, but I've gotta fact-check that it was first released in 2018, not 1995. 
Still can't wait to dive into some great shows and movies though! One thing's for sure, Tom Cruise is insane in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning
