SkyMed
Since premiering in 2022, SkyMed has been one of the most popular original medical dramas on Paramount+. As its title suggests, the series follows the personal and professional lives of nurses and pilots who work on air ambulances in remote areas of Northern Canada.
SkyMed earned a 77% Rotten Tomatoes score for its first three seasons, which span 27 episodes, and a fourth season is on the way, expected in 2026. While the series can veer into melodrama, SkyMed is great to binge on Paramount+ this week if you’re looking for some light yet gripping entertainment.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is a prequel to the original 1966 show and is widely considered one of the greatest modern Star Trek series. Strange New Worlds follows the crew of the USS Enterprise under the command of Captain Christopher Pike, played by Anson Mount.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is a spin-off of another prequel series, Discovery, which ran for 5 seasons and 65 episodes from 2017 to 2024 (also streaming on Paramount+). Strange New Worlds earned a 94% Rotten Tomatoes score and was nominated for 2 Emmys, making it a must-binge for all Star Trek fans, new and old.
The Neighborhood
The Neighborhood is the popular CBS comedy show that inspired Tracey Morgan’s new Paramount+ series, Crutch. Starring Cedric the Entertainer and Max Greenfield, the sitcom follows an amicable family from the Midwest who move to a Los Angeles neighborhood.
Morgan’s Crutch character made his debut in The Neighborhood, which paved the way for his spinoff series that just dropped on Paramount+ earlier this month. If you’re a fan of feel-good, family-friendly sitcoms, The Neighborhood – all 140+ episodes across eight seasons – is a fantastic series to start binge-watching this week.
Watson
Set in the universe of Sherlock Holmes, the CBS drama series Watson follows Dr. John Watson, played by Morris Chestnut, one year after the death of the renowned private eye. Watson is currently halfway through its second season and releases new episodes each Monday until mid-December.
In the same vein as House, Watson solves rare medical mysteries using his particular genius with the help of his reliable team. Even though Watson returned to his medical profession, his past comes back around in dark and unpredictable ways, forcing him to face an old nemesis once again.
FBI
FBI has been one of the most consistent cop drama franchises on CBS since its premiere in 2018. Since then, it has spawned over 150 episodes across eight seasons and already has a ninth season in development. The series was created by Dick Wolf, Craig Turk, and the team behind the Law & Order franchise.
FBI inspired the modern spinoff series International and Most Wanted, which are also major hits for CBS. The series takes a fictional deep dive into the intense world of counterintelligence and some of the nation’s most prolific and devastating crimes.
If you’re looking for a fast-paced series with a familiar feel that’s incredibly easy to binge, FBI is one of the safest bets this week on Paramount+.
