MW Here's what's worth streaming in April 2025 on Netflix, Max, Hulu, Disney+ and more

By Mike Murphy

There's a lot on tap, including new seasons of Disney's 'Andor,' Max's 'The Last of Us' and Hulu's 'The Handmaid's Tale'

We're hitting the annual peak of prestige TV this April, with streaming services featuring plenty of big names and big titles.

That's because networks and streamers are scrambling to get their top shows - including new seasons of Disney's "Andor," Max's "The Last of Us" and Hulu's "The Handmaid's Tale" - released before the Emmy deadline at the end of May. It's good news for viewers, who will have no shortage of good shows to watch this month, but creates a bit of a consumer conundrum, since few of us have the free time or money to watch everything that's on tap.

But with a bit of strategic churning - that is, adding and dropping services month to month - it's actually possible to watch the best of the best while keeping your monthly streaming budget around $50. Keep in mind that a billing cycle starts when you sign up, not necessarily at the beginning of the month.

Each month, this column offers tips on how to maximize your streaming and your budget - rating the major services as "play," "pause" or "stop," similar to investment analysts' traditional ratings of buy, hold and sell - and picks the best shows to help you make your monthly decisions.

Here's a look at what's coming to the various streaming services in April 2025, and what's really worth the monthly subscription fee:

Max ($9.99 a month with ads, $16.99 with no ads, or $20.99 'Ultimate' with no ads)

It's probably the single biggest month of the year for Max, with the slow-burn third season of "The White Lotus" (season finale April 6) and the fantastic ER drama "The Pitt" (season finale April 10) wrapping up, new weekly episodes of the televangelism comedy "The Righteous Gemstones" and the satirical news show "Last Week Tonight," and the premieres of three more heavy hitters.

Multiple Emmy-winner "Hacks" (April 10) is back for its fourth season - and it's reassuring to have a show these days that reliably returns at (almost) the same time every year. The new season sees Deborah (Jean Smart) finally hosting her own late-night show, with now-frenemy Ava (Hannah Einbender) as her head writer, thanks to a bit of blackmail last season. "Hacks" continues to be one of the smartest-written comedies on TV, and it's a must-watch.

After a two-year layoff. the post-apocalyptic drama "The Last of Us" (April 13) returns for its second season, picking up five years after the action of Season 1. Bella Ramsey and Pedro Pascal reprise their roles as Ellie and Joel, who find their relationship strained as they're forced from the relative safety of the Wyoming compound to continue their westward journey across a landscape populated by killer zombies and even scarier humans. Kaitlyn Dever, Jeffrey Wright and Catherine O'Hara join the cast, and viewers should expect a storyline that expands significantly from the massively popular videogame that it's adapted from. Season 1 earned a ton of awards, including multiple Emmys and a Peabody, along with a huge fanbase. This is one of the most anticipated shows of the year, and it's a safe bet that it'll live up to the hype.

The other big returnee is "The Rehearsal" (April 20), Nathan Fielder's jaw-droppingly odd comedic social experiment, which returns for a second season after a three-year layoff. The show can be loosely described as Fielder "helping" people make big life decisions by meticulously creating real-world simulations that they can practice in, but that doesn't do justice to how squirmy it is. Is it real? Is it scripted? Is it somehow both? Just know it's guaranteed to be mesmerizing, uncomfortably awkward and very, very strange.

Max also has "Brett Goldstein: The Second Best Night of Your Life" (date TBA), a standup comedy special from the "Ted Lasso" co-star; "Y2K" (April 4), a turn-of-the-millennium teen disaster-comedy movie from "SNL" alumni Kyle Mooney; and the streaming debut of "Babygirl" (April 25), last year's erotic-thriller movie starring Nicole Kidman as a high-powered exec who has a torrid affair with a much younger man.

On the sports side, Major League Baseball returns every Tuesday night, along with a full slate of NBA and NHL games, including NBA playoffs (starting April 15) and Stanley Cup playoffs (starting April 19), NASCAR races on Sundays and a pair of U.S. women's soccer matches against Brazil (April 5 and 8).

Kill the wabbit? Meanwhile, Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) continues to dismantle its legacy by making bafflingly short-sighted, consumer-unfriendly decisions, the latest being yanking the entire "Looney Tunes" library from Max - oddly just before a new "Looney Tunes" movie hit theaters. And don't forget the "Coyote vs. Acme" saga, which at least is getting a happy ending. They're also bulldozing the original "Looney Tunes" building on the Warner lot. Seriously, what's going on? Did Bugs Bunny kill CEO David Zaslav's father?

Binge-worthy: The Adult Swim animated thriller series "Common Side Effects" is one of the more pleasant surprises of the year. With beautiful visuals, sharp dialogue and a twisty conspiracy involving Big Pharma and the government trying to squash the discovery of a mushroom that basically cures all ailments, it's worth a watch. It shouldn't come as a surprise - its co-creator, Joe Bennett, was also behind 2023's stunning animated sci-fi/horror series "Scavengers Reign" (canceled by Max, but also available on Netflix). He and co-creator Steve Hely are having better luck this time around - "Common Side Effects" was just renewed for a second season.

Play, pause or stop? Play. Honestly, you could just get Max as your only streamer this month and be perfectly happy.

Disney+ ($9.99 a month with ads, $15.99 with no ads)

Disney's $(DIS)$ got arguably the most anticipated show of the year in Season 2 of the "Star Wars" prequel "Andor" (April 22). For those who missed out on Season 1, forget all your "Star Wars," or even sci-fi, preconceptions. At its core, Tony Gilbert has created a gritty, taut war story about resistance - from guerilla fighters to back-room political machinations - and finding a cause worth fighting for even in the face of overwhelming odds. It's an old-school, character-driven thrill ride, smartly written and well-acted. Perhaps most crucially, its special effects - while spectacular - are complimentary to the story, not the point of the story, a trap so many modern blockbusters fall into. Diego Luna returns as rebel spy Cassian Andor, along with a top-notch cast that includes Stellan Skarsgård, Genevieve O'Reilly, Forest Whitaker and Ben Mendelsohn. The new season spans four years - all leading up to the action that took place in the 2016 movie "Rogue One" - and its 12 episodes will come in "chapters" of three episodes landing every Tuesday for four weeks, with each chapter jumping a year or so ahead, telling more-or-less self-contained stories. The trailers have been goosebump-inducing; this is a must-watch.

There's also a new season of "Doctor Who" (April 12), as the 15th Doctor (Ncuti Gatwa) and his new companion Belinda (Varada Sethu) have adventures in time and space; the last few episodes of Marvel's "Daredevil: Born Again" (season finale April 15); and a 4K version of James Cameron's 1989 deep-sea thriller "The Abyss" (April 15).

Play, pause or stop? Play. For "Andor" alone - it really is that good.

Hulu ($9.99 a month with ads, or $18.99 with no ads)

There's a lot of buzz around FX's "Dying for Sex" (April 4), a limited series about a woman with terminal cancer who dumps her husband and looks to carry out a "sex quest" of self-discovery with her remaining time. Based on a true story that was turned into a hit podcast, Michelle Williams stars as Molly, a woman diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer who finds a measure of freedom in unconventional - and sometimes kinky - sex, with the encouragement of her supportive best friend and, later, posthumous podcast partner, Nikki (Jenny Slate). Jay Duplass, Rob Delaney and Sissy Spacek co-star in the deeply emotional, life-affirming comedy-drama.

After a three-year layoff, the dystopian drama "The Handmaid's Tale" (April 6) is back for its sixth and final season, and appears - depressingly enough - as prescient as ever. It's always been a rough watch, but this season may offer some emotional catharsis as June (Elisabeth Moss) and her allies are finally in full-on revolt against the repressive Gilead government. While a happy ending may be asking too much, showrunner Yahlin Chang has promised it'll be satisfying. This won't be the end of the story, however - a series adaptation of Margaret Atwood's sequel "The Testaments" is in the works from Hulu, set 15 years after "The Handmaid's Tale."

Hulu also has "Got to Get Out" (April 11), a "Traitors"-like reality competition show hosted by Simu Liu; Season 2 of "No Man's Land" (April 16), a French thriller set amid the Syrian civil war; and fresh episodes of network hits like "Abbott Elementary" and "American Idol." It also added the Oscar-nominated Bob Dylan biopic "A Complete Unknown" in late March.

Binge-worthy: The crime comedy series "Deli Boys" takes a well-worn concept - clueless siblings discover their dad was an underworld kingpin and must take over his empire - and gives it a fresh spin, deftly managing to balance slapstick comedy with shocking violence. Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh are terrific as spoiled (though easy-to-root-for) failsons trying to manage a drug-distribution empire in Philadelphia, but it's Poorna Jagannathan as a ruthless family queenpin who steals every scene she's in. It's a surprisingly fun watch.

Play, pause or stop? Play. While the lineup is relatively light, "Dying for Sex" and "The Handmaid's Tale" will surely be Emmy contenders, and Hulu has a deep library on top of that.

Apple TV+ ($9.99 a month)

MW Here's what's worth streaming in April 2025 on -2-

Jon Hamm stars in "Your Friends & Neighbors" (April 11) as a hedge-fund manager who loses it all, and turns to becoming a cat burglar in his wealthy enclave to get by, only to discover that the secrets and affairs he uncovers are a lot more dangerous than he bargained for. The dark comedy/drama series co-stars Amanda Peet and Olivia Munn, and has already been renewed for a second season. It looks like a little bit "Mad Men," a little bit "Fletch" and a whole lot of fun.

Apple's $(AAPL)$ also got "Government Cheese" (April 16), a surreal comedy series starring David Oyelowo as an ex-con pursuing seemingly impossible dreams with his family in 1960s Southern California; the third and final season of "Jane" (April 18), a family show about a girl who uses her imagination to help protect endangered species; and "Carême" (April 30), a French-language period drama about the first celebrity chef, who rose to fame in the Napoleonic era.

There are also new weekly episodes of "Dope Thief" (season finale April 25), the eight-part crime thriller that, while solid, probably would have been better off as a movie; and "The Studio," Seth Rogen's hilariously frenetic inside-Hollywood satire that succeeds on almost every level.

Play, pause or stop? Pause and think it over. There's good stuff. But there might be better stuff - and more of it - elsewhere.

Netflix ($7.99 a month for standard with ads, $17.99 standard with no ads, $24.99 premium with no ads)

Netflix $(NFLX)$ has another loaded lineup in April, but it's a show from March that's still getting all the attention - and deservedly so. The British four-part crime series "Adolescence" dropped with little fanfare, but exploded in popularity thanks to word of mouth (and of course Netflix's recommendation algorithm). Centering around a 13-year-old boy who's arrested for murder, the show is a stunning achievement on multiple levels. Watching it is an emotionally gutting, stressful experience, yet it's absolutely captivating, thanks largely to brilliant performances from a cast that includes Owen Cooper as the boy, Stephen Graham as his father and Erin Doherty as a child psychologist. The show is a technical marvel too, with each roughly hourlong episode shot in one uncut take. Not only does that manage to not feel gimmicky, it creates, at times, an uncomfortably intimate viewing experience, like you're eavesdropping on people as they experience the worst moments in their lives. Admittedly, that all sounds like a very not-fun time, but the show is so exceptional, and so timely and so thoughtful, that it should be almost mandatory viewing. This is one you'll still be thinking about days, weeks, months later.

The April offerings kinda pale in comparison. But there's still a lot to offer, including the fifth and final season of the addictive stalker thriller "You" (April 24); Season 7 of the dystopian anthology "Black Mirror" (April 10), including a sequel to one of its best episodes, "USS Callister"; the "Grey's Anatomy"-like hospital drama "Pulse" (April 3); the soapy Texas family drama "Ransom Canyon" (April 17), starring Josh Duhamel and Minka Kelly; "Bullet Train Explosion" (April 23), a Japanese thriller movie titled for maximum SEO optimization and whose plot is basically "Speed," but still looks like a blast; and "Havoc" (April 25), a carnage-strewn crime movie starring Tom Hardy, Forest Whitaker and Timothy Olyphant, from acclaimed action director Gareth Evans ("The Raid").

There's also Season 3 of the dating show "Love on the Spectrum" (April 2), the baseball documentary "The Clubhouse: A Year With the Red Sox" (April 8), and "Chef's Table: Legends" (April 28), celebrating iconic chefs Jamie Oliver, José Andrés, Alice Waters and Thomas Keller.

Don't forget, every Wednesday night brings a live episode of the delightfully chaotic talk show "Everybody's Live with John Mulaney."

Play, pause or stop? Pause. Watch "Adolescence," but there's nothing else that can't wait to be binged later. Even "Black Mirror" feels less urgent now that reality has, in many ways, overtaken it.

Paramount+ ($7.99 a month with ads, $12.99 a month with Showtime and no ads)

Paramount+ has new weekly episodes of Guy Ritchie's London crime drama "MobLand," which feels like a watered-down version of AMC's "Gangs of London"; Taylor Sheridan's "Yellowstone" prequel "1923" (season finale April 6); and the messy psychological/survival thriller "Yellowjackets" (season finale April 13), but not a lot else, aside from the CBS musical special "An Evening with Elton John and Brandi Carlile" (April 6) and the documentary "The Carters: Hurts to Love You" (April 15) about the tragic story of pop-star brothers Nick and Aaron Carter.

On the sports side, men's March Madness wraps up with the Final Four (April 5) and national championship game (April 7), followed by The Masters from Augusta, Ga. (April 10-13), as well as UEFA Champions League quarterfinal matches (April 8-17).

Paramount's $(PARA)$ also got new episodes of CBS shows including "Survivor," "Matlock," "Fire Country" and "NCIS: Sydney."

Binge-worthy: CBS just announced the cancellation of Taylor Tomlinson's comedy game show "After Midnight" after two seasons. While it probably would have been better served as a half-hour show than an hour, it's a reliably goofy, zero-stakes chillax watch that works best when the four comedians just abandon the premise and try to crack each other up. The final episodes will air in June, but who knows how long after that it'll remain available to stream. For a fun hang, catch it while you can.

Play, pause or stop? Stop. The lineup is way too light. Watch the Final Four and The Masters for free on CBS, and save any binges another month.

Peacock ($7.99 a month with ads, or $13.99 with no ads)

Well, this is an easy skip. Peacock's only offerings of note in April are the WWE's "Wrestlemania 41" (April 19-20); Season 5 of "Law & Order: Organized Crime" (April 17); Season 2 of the reality series "The Valley" (April 16); and "The Making of The Americas" (April 13), a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the NBC nature documentary series.

There are also new episodes of Comcast's $(CMCSA)$ broadcast and cable shows, including "The Americas," "Top Chef," "Night Court," "The Real Housewives" and "The Voice." On the sports side there's a full slate of English Premier League soccer, U.S. women's soccer (April 5 and 8), USL Super League soccer, golf, motorsports and rugby.

There's a bright light at the end of the tunnel though: The delightful mystery series "Poker Face" returns with its second season in May.

Play, pause or stop? Stop. "Top Chef" is great, but there's not a lot else worth watching at the moment.

Amazon's Prime Video ($14.99 a month with ads, $8.99 without Prime membership, both +$2.99 to avoid ads)

Amazon $(AMZN)$ has yet to confirm April's Prime Video schedule, but third-party reports indicate another light lineup, highlighted by the supernatural thriller series "The Bondsman" (April 3), starring Kevin Bacon as a resurrected bounty hunter-turned demon hunter; "G20" (April 10), an action movie starring Viola Davis as a U.S. president personally fighting off a terrorist attack; the animated immigrant-family sitcom "#1 Happy Family USA" (April 17), starring the voices of Ramy Youssef and Alia Shawkat; and Season 3 of the caper drama "Leverage: Redemption" (April 17).

There are also fresh episodes of the big-budget fantasy epic "The Wheel of Time" (season finale April 17) and the spinoff cop drama "Bosch: Legacy" (series finale April 17), and you can always catch up with the recently concluded third season of the dumb-but-fun action series "Reacher," in which a very big man uses a very tiny phone.

Play, pause or stop? Stop. Amazon doesn't seem to be prioritizing Prime Video anymore. And things may get shakier following the recent ouster of Amazon MGM Studios head Jennifer Salke, who oversaw the development of hit series like "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," "Reacher," "The Boys" and "Fallout" (though also flops like "Citadel," the "Tomb Raider" boondoggle and the James Bond debacle). Her position won't be replaced.
