Adam Sandler’s first comedy special since 2018 premieres this week on Netflix. Ryan Gosling’s “The Fall Guy” comes to Peacock, and Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez head to Los Angeles in season four’s “Only Murders in the Building.” “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” also returns for its second season on Prime on Thursday.

“Adam Sandler: I Love You”

Adam Sandler has the feelings in his new Netflix special “Adam Sandler: Love You,” featuring his stand-up and signature comedy songs. It’s directed by Josh Safdie, who — along with his brother Benny — co-directed Sandler in the 2019 film “Uncut Gems.” “Love You” is Sandler’s first comedy special since 2018. It premiered Tuesday on Netflix. DETAILS

“Only murders in the building”

Charles, Oliver and Mabel (Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez) head to Los Angeles for season four of “Only Murders in the Building” because their podcast is being adapted into a movie. Their Hollywood lives are disrupted when another murder occurs, which means the trio must take on a new case. Eugene Levy, Zach Galifianakis and Eva Longoria join the cast. “Only Murders in the Building” premieres Tuesday on Hulu. DETAILS

“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power”

— Season two of “The House of the Dragon” has aired in its entirety on HBO, and if you’re still looking to indulge your fantasy, “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” returns for its second season on Prime Video on Thursday. The story is set in the Second Age of Middle-earth, prior to the events of JRR Tolkien’s “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings.” DETAILS

“The Scapegoat”

“The Fall Guy” is finally coming to Peacock, streaming alongside an “extended cut” version beginning Friday, August 30. It may not have reached the blockbuster heights the studio dreamed of when it debuted in theaters, but it’s a pure delight: a comedy, action, romance that soars thanks to the charisma of its stars. Based on Lee Majors’ ’80s TV series (he gets a cameo), the film stars Ryan Gosling as a stuntman, Emily Blunt as his director and dream girl, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as an egotistical movie star, and “Ted Lasso’s” Hannah Waddingham as a Diet Coke-guzzling producer.

“The Watchers”

Ishana Night Shyamalan’s thriller “The Watchers,” starring Dakota Fanning as an artist stranded in western Ireland where mysterious creatures lurk and prowl at night, begins streaming on MAX on Friday, August 30. DETAILS

“Types of kindness”

Emma Stone gives a performance (and interpretive dance) worth watching in “Kinds of Kindness,” her latest collaboration with Yorgos Lanthimos, hot on the heels of her Oscar-winning turn in “Poor Things.” The film, streaming on Hulu on Friday, August 30, is a triptych featuring a large cast including Willem Dafoe, Jesse Plemons (who won an award for his performance at Cannes), Hong Chau, Margaret Qualley, Mamoudou Athie and Joe Alwyn. Jocelyn Noveck described it in her Associated Press review as “a meditation on our free will and the ways we willingly give it up to others — in the workplace, at home and in religion.” Noveck wrote that the “Stone-Lanthimos pairing … continues to foster an aspect of Stone’s talents that increasingly sets her apart: her fearlessness and the clear joy she derives from it.” DETAILS

“Sasquatch Sunset”

Somehow, Yorgos Lanthimos’s film isn’t the most eccentric new streaming offering this week. That title goes to “Sasquatch Sunset,” Nathan and David Zellner’s experimental film about a family of sasquatches just going about their lives. Starring a mostly unrecognizable Jesse Eisenberg and Riley Keough (alongside Nathan Zellner), the Sundance oddity begins streaming this week on Paramount+. In his review for the AP , Mark Kennedy wrote that it’s “a baffling 90-minute, narratorless, wordless experiment that’s as audacious as it is frustrating. It’s not clear whether everyone was high when he made it or whether we were supposed to be when we watched it.” DETAILS

“Terminator Zero”

A new animated series set in the “Terminator” universe is coming to Netflix on Thursday, following new characters voiced by “House of the Dragon” actor Sonoya Mizuno, Timothy Olyphant, André Holland, Rosario Dawson and Ann Dowd. DETAILS
