We’ve all faced the disappointment of finding a US drama we really want to watch, only for it not to be available in the UK.
The US is constantly creating must-see entertainment content and you might be thinking that these programs are only available to US audiences — but that’s not the case.
Thanks to these US streaming platforms securing deals with UK broadcasters like Sky and ITV, we can now watch award-winning content from a variety of genres. Although the UK isn’t guaranteed the same release date as those across the pond, it saves you from waiting an age until they reach UK screens.
Latest Videos FromWhat to Watch
Here are the US dramas available to watch on both UK channels and streaming this week, as well as our top picks.
Yellowjackets season 4
Yellowjackets crash lands on Paramount+ for its fourth and final season this week. The critically acclaimed thriller-drama follows a high school girls soccer team who begin to lose their sanity after their plane crashes in the remote Ontario wilderness on the way to a tournament.
The official plot synopsis for season 4 reads: “As the survivors race to bury their sins before rescue arrives and an old flame roars back into town with plans of her own. Turns out not every homecoming is a joyous one, and this one’s going to sting.”
The Altruists
Anthony Boyle (House of Guinness) and Julia Garner (Ozark) star as Sam Bankman-Fried and Caroline Ellison in this true story about a huge crypto fraud.
The Netflix drama, which premieres on 19 November, centres on the young, idealistic couple who set to reinvent the global financial system, only to become involved in an eight-billion-dollar fraud.
Hudson Williams (Heated Rivalry) and Jennifer Grey (Dirty Dancing) also star.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3
An electrifying new odyssey is unleashed on Disney+ as the third season of teen fantasy saga Percy Jackson and the Olympians returns on 20 November.
This instalment is based on Rick Riordan’s third book in the series, The Titan’s Curse, which sees Percy (Walker Scobell) grapple with the sudden disappearance of Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) and the impending Great Prophecy that dictates the fate of Olympus — in which one demi-god of the “Big Three” is destined to raise it to new heights or destroy it.
