Paramount+ is a great place to look for your weekend binge-watch. It might be known more for its movies and live sports, but Paramount's streaming service adds new shows or new episodes of ongoing series every week. It doesn't just add new original shows, either. It also pulls in new shows from Paramount's networks, like CBS, as well as coproductions with international studios.
This weekend, I've got three shows worthy of your next binge session. "Dreaming Whilst Black" is back for season 2, and the British comedy about a recruiter following their filmmaking dreams was a critical darling in its first season. Then, I've got a pair of Canadian shows; one, a docuseries about two men who claim to be raised off the grid in the woods, the other, a reality series in a British Columbia lakehouse from the people that brought you "Jersey Shore."
So without further ado, here are the three new to Paramount+ shows you need to binge-watch this weekend. If you need more recommendations, check out everything coming to Paramount+ in February 2026 for more options.
'Dreaming Whilst Black' season 2
Genre: British comedy series
What's it about? Kwabena (Adjani Salmon) is a recruiter who decides to pursue his filmmaking dreams with his film school friend, Amy (Dani Mosley). In season 2, he finally gets a serious directing job and all the demands that come with it.
Why you should watch it: Season 1 was a smash success critically, scoring a perfect 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. If you want something to watch that basically everyone loves, this is it.

'Wild Boys: Strangers in Town'
Genre: Docuseries
What's it about? Two brothers emerge from the woods of British Columbia in 2003, claiming to have been raised entirely off the grid, with no record of their existence.
Why you should watch it: You might have guessed, but this story is not quite what it seems. With just two episodes, finding out the ending of this story is worth a weekend binge-watch.

'Canada Shore'
Genre: Reality series
What's it about? "Canada Shore" takes place in the lakeside city of Kelowna, British Columbia. But while these 12 housemates may be Canadian, they can get seriously rowdy and shed their stereotypically polite nature.
Why you should watch it: This is basically "Jersey Shore" but in Canada. Much like its predecessor, this show follows the daily lives of a bunch of young partiers all living together under one roof. I have friends who loved "Jersey Shore" that are already addicted to its Canadian counterpart.
