New Shows & Movies To Watch This Weekend: Apple TV+’s ‘Lessons in Chemistry’ + More

New on Apple TV+ October 13: Lessons on Chemistry

Set in the 1960s, Lessons In Chemistry stars Brie Larson as Elizabeth Zott, a scientist who is not taken seriously because she’s a woman and later finds success as the host of a cooking show. The first two episodes of Lessons in Chemistry arrive on Apple TV+ this Friday, with the final six episodes airing weekly.

New on Netflix October 12: The Fall Of The House of Usher

Mike Flanagan’s shows have become something of a Halloween tradition on Netflix, and in The Fall of the House of Usher, he reunites some of his go-to stars like Carla Gugino, Zack Gilford, Kate Siegel, and Samantha Sloyan for a modern take on one of Poe’s most chilling stories, in which the last remaining heirs of the Usher family mysteriously start to die.

New on Disney+ and Hulu October 13: Goosebumps

R.L. Stine’s books are part of the kid-lit canon, and they’ve served as an entry point for horror-curious pre-teens for decades. Though his books were turned into an anthology series in the 1990s, they’re getting a reboot on Disney+ and Hulu this year, as favorite stories like The Haunted Mask and Say Cheese And Die! are used as inspiration for the ten-episode series about five teens haunted by a mysterious murder in their town 30 years earlier. The first five episodes of Goosebumps drop Friday, with the final five airing weekly on Fridays.
