The Beatles, ‘Saved by the Bell’ and Christmas programming commences: Here’s what’s streaming for Canadians this week

With so many different streaming platforms and cable offerings to navigate, choosing what to watch has never been harder. To make things easier, here are our best tune-in tips for the week ahead.

MONDAY NOV. 22

Dancing With the Stars

It’s hard to believe that “Dancing With the Stars” will wrap up its 30th season tonight. What won’t be as hard to believe is YouTube personality JoJo Siwa and pro Jenna Johnson Chmerkovskiy making history as the first same-sex couple to win the mirror ball trophy (the most likely scenario). That said, is it really fair considering JoJo’s dancing background? How are “The Talk” co-host Amanda Kloots, Peleton instructor Cody Rigsby and former NBA shooting guard Iman Shumpert expected to compete against that kind of experience? Guess anything can still happen.

WEDNESDAY NOV. 24

Hawkeye

Marvel’s Hawkeye gets the Disney Plus miniseries treatment and the two-episode premiere will see Clint Barton (played by Jeremy Renner) team up with Kate Bishop (Hailee Steinfeld). The story will mainly consist of the superhero passing down the bow and arrow to a new protégé.

Disney Plus

Bruised

Halle Berry’s directorial debut premiered at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival where it was one of the hardest tickets to get. Netflix paid a pretty penny to procure the worldwide rights to the film. Berry plays a washed-up MMA fighter trying to get her career back on track to regain custody of her son. The role was originally written for Blake Lively (“Gossip Girl”), who reportedly declined, allowing Berry to change the script and take over the lead.

Netflix

True Story

Kevin Hart shows off his serious side while still playing a comedian. His character the Kid seems to be on the fast track to success until his older brother, Carlton (Wesley Snipes) shows up. Things quickly escalate into a matter of life and death.

Netflix

Dog Years

This Italian comedy tells the story of Stella (Aurora Giovinazzo), a clumsy and cynical teenager who counts her age in dog years after a life-changing car accident involving a dog. One year of her life counts for seven and now that she is 16, she is a centennial.

Amazon Prime Video

THURSDAY NOV. 25

The Beatles: Get Back

Directed by three-time Oscar-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson, this three-part documentary series takes audiences back in time to one of the most pivotal periods in music history for the Beatles. In the trailer for the series, the band rehearses Paul McCartney’s new “I’ve Got a Feeling” track as he teaches the rest of the group the song. The wealth of footage Jackson received access to took three years to restore and edit, and was curated from tapes made in 1969. Easily the top pick of the week.

Disney Plus

Saved by the Bell

The sophomore season of this reboot premieres Thursday. The first season of the new take on the classic sitcom addressed many important topics including race, inclusion, class and education. Things pick up from last season after Daisy (played by Haskiri Velazquez) staged a walkout to keep the Douglas High students at Bayside. You can expect to see a new face elected as student council vice-president, the school gearing up for the Southern California School Spirit Competition and the return of original cast members Jessie Spano (Elizabeth Berkley Lauren) and A.C. Slater (Mario Lopez).

A Saturday Night Live Thanksgiving

While we have already tasted our turkey in Canada, our friends south of the border are just getting started and “SNL” is the perfect appetizer. This special will be a compilation of the best Thanksgiving-themed sketches from over the years. Expect to hear a lot of Adam Sandler’s “Thanksgiving Song.”

Global & StackTV, 8 p.m.

FRIDAY NOV. 26

’Twas the Fight Before Christmas

Let the Christmas movies begin. This unique holiday flick tells the story of a North Idaho street turned upside down by one man’s obsession with Christmas lights. Jeremy Morris doesn’t just want a few bulbs on his roof; he wants a five-day light show much to the chagrin of his neighbours. The result is a court battle involving religious and personal rights. Great concept and fascinating film.

Apple TV Plus

A Saturday Night Live Christmas

Another “SNL” holiday special! This one will be just like the Thanksgiving episode. Just swap out the “Thanksgiving Song” for Adam Sandler’s “Chanukah Song.”

Global & StackTV, 9:30 p.m.

School of Chocolate

A reality show about the different things you can do with chocolate? Count us in. Hosted by Insta-famous French pastry chef Amaury Guichon, it features eight chefs from around the world being challenged to create showpieces made entirely out of chocolate. While it’s fun to see what is made, the fact that there are no eliminations and that the worst chefs in each episode are simply given extra time with Guichon is kind of lame. The show is still worth a look.

Netflix

Harry Potter Film Collection

In celebration of the 20th anniversary of the “Harry Potter” films, the entire collection of Daniel Radcliffe movies will be available to stream. If you were a fan of the books and never got a chance to catch the big screen adaptations, now’s your chance. Also, keep an eye out for the upcoming competition series called “Harry Potter: Hogwarts Tournament of Houses,” which will be hosted by Academy Award winner Helen Mirren.
