The Last Temptation of Christ – Peacock
Martin Scorsese’s finest achievement remains this adaptation of Nikos Kazantzakis’ eternally controversial novel. Even if you’re not religious, the film has an undeniable power thanks to its focus on Jesus’s humanity and sacrifice.

Top Picks
The Regime – Max 3/3
Girls5eva (Season 3) – Netflix 3/14
3 Body Problem – Netflix 3/21
First up is a new dark comedy from Will Tracy, a veteran satirist with credits on the Onion News Network, Last Week Tonight and Succession. His first series as showrunner follows a semi-authoritarian populist (Kate Winslet) trying to hold onto power in her fictional country by any means necessary.
For something a little lighter, Girls5eva makes the move from Peacock to Netflix with a six-episode season following the travails of a reunited girl group. The first two seasons arrive the same day.
Finally, it’s arguably the biggest premiere of 2024. 3 Body Problem is based on the wildly popular sci-fi book series and hails from the creators of Game of Thrones. It’s a huge risk for Netflix. Will it become a massive, beloved hit like the first several seasons of Game of Thrones? Or an expensive, reviled flop, like the last couple seasons of Game of Thrones?
