5 Shows to Stream This Weekend: Spider-Noir, Deli Boys, More
Key Takeaways
- Spider-Noir offers two viewing modes: Authentic Black & White and True-Hue Full Color
- Deli Boys season 2 drops all six episodes on Hulu with Fred Armisen joining the cast
- Star City expands the For All Mankind universe on Apple TV
This weekend marks the unofficial cutoff for 2026 Emmy eligibility. Shows premiering June 1 or later compete at the 2027 ceremony. That timing pressure hasn't stopped the streamers from rolling out some interesting projects for the May 29-31 window.
The standout is Spider-Noir on Prime Video. Nicolas Cage voices the character in the Spider-Verse animated films. Now he plays the live-action version in a series that leans hard into its 1930s detective aesthetic.
Spider-Noir (Prime Video)
Prime Video is treating Spider-Noir as an experiment. The entire series is available in two visual modes: Authentic Black & White and True-Hue Full Color. You pick which version you want to watch.
The tagline captures the tone: "With no power comes no responsibility." It's a Depression-era noir take on Spider-Man, which is exactly the kind of weird swing that streaming platforms can afford to take.
Reddit's r/Television community is split on the color option. Some argue the full-color version defeats the purpose of a noir aesthetic. Others appreciate having the choice. The black-and-white purists seem to be winning that debate.
Deli Boys Season 2 (Hulu)
Deli Boys surprised a lot of people in 2025. The crime comedy follows brothers Mir Dar (Asif Ali) and Raj Dar (Saagar Shaikh) after they inherit their father's drug empire along with his chain of delis.
Season 2 picks up with the brothers enjoying their wealth but facing a new problem: money laundering. Fred Armisen joins the cast as Max Sugar, an eccentric casino owner who becomes their business partner. Poorna Jagannathan returns as Lucky.
All six episodes drop at once. Creator Abdullah Saeed keeps the show firmly in comedy territory. These are absurd situations played for laughs, not a prestige drama dressed as comedy.
A Good Girl's Guide to Murder Season 2 (Netflix)
Netflix has a type: teenage amateur detectives. Wednesday, Enola Holmes, Dead Boy Detectives. A Good Girl's Guide to Murder fits that mold with Emma Myers as Pippa "Pip" Fitz-Amobi.
Season 1 followed Pip investigating the disappearance of Andie Bell. Season 2 brings a new mystery. If you enjoyed the first season's mix of YA energy and genuine thriller plotting, this continues that formula.
The Four Seasons Season 2
Tina Fey's ensemble comedy returns. The show follows three couples navigating friendships and relationships through various seasonal getaways. It's the kind of low-stakes character comedy that works well for weekend viewing.
Star City (Apple TV+)
For All Mankind fans have been waiting for this spinoff. Star City expands that alternate history universe where the space race never ended. The original series reimagined what might have happened if the Soviets reached the moon first.
This spinoff explores a different corner of that timeline. If you haven't watched For All Mankind, you might want to catch up first. But the show should work on its own for newcomers willing to accept the premise.
What's Coming in June
This weekend is appetizer season. The bigger releases hit in June. Cape Fear arrives on Apple TV. House of the Dragon returns on HBO Max. Both will compete at the 2027 Emmys, but both are likely to dominate the streaming conversation through the summer.
