Paramount+ is constantly adding new shows to binge-watch, and this weekend is no exception. The streaming service drops new episodes of hit shows every week. Sometimes, even entire seasons at once. It added 70 new movies and shows on July 1 alone. It even has some live sporting events, including all major events from the Ultimate Fighting Championship.
This weekend, I've got two shows and one live event worth watching. First up, "RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars" season 11 just dropped its finale. Once you're done, fans of Tyler Perry will want to check out "Ruthless" season 6, which is now four episodes into its new season. Finally, on Saturday, tune in at 8 p.m. ET for "UFC Fight Night: Du Plessis vs. Usman."
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 July 2026 for more options.
'RuPaul's Drag Race: All Stars' season 11
Genre: Reality competition series
What's it about? This spin-off in the "Drag Race" franchise features past queens, mostly from the original series. They return at the invitation of RuPaul, who still plays the roles of host, mentor and head judge. Each week, contestants are given different challenges, and in the end, only one queen will be left standing.
Why you should watch it: If you're a fan of "RuPaul's Drag Race" and you're not already watching "All Stars," what are you doing? If you haven't gotten into the iconic competition series, start with the season 11 premiere and work your way up to today's (July 17) finale.

'Tyler Perry's Ruthless' season 6
Genre: Drama miniseries
What's it about? This spin-off of "The Oval" stars Melissa L. Williams as Ruth, who has become entangled in a powerful sex cult. Six seasons in, she's now pregnant with the child of The Highest (Matt Cedeño), who leads the cult, and that's finally allowed her to wield power within it.
Why you should watch it: I'll be honest, this show sounds absolutely insane. But people love Tyler Perry's shows, so it felt wrong not to mention that one of his series had just returned for a sixth season. Clearly, something is working with this series.

'UFC Fight Night: Du Plessis vs Usman'
Genre: Live sporting event
What's it about? UFC 329 has come and gone, but there's still plenty of mixed martial arts live on Paramount+. This week, former UFC Middleweight Champion Dricus du Plessis squares off against former UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman for a middleweight bout in the octagon.
Why you should watch it: You can't binge a live sports event. But getting sports like the UFC is a major reason for having Paramount+. Especially when it's two former title holders. Since it's technically a show, I couldn't leave it off the list this weekend.
Stream "UFC Fight Night: Du Plessis vs. Usman" starting at 8 p.m. ET on July 18
