Filling in for Steve Stebbing, Shane, Ryam and takes over the weekend watchlist with three recommendations that promise drama, comedy, and action-packed storytelling.

First up is Wayward, a dark mystery where two teens escape a strange therapy school and, with the help of a local cop, uncover secrets in their small town. For laughs, Shoresy delivers — the Letterkenny spinoff where Sudbury’s most notorious chirper refuses to let his senior AAA hockey team lose. And finally, Power brings high-stakes drama, following nightclub owner James “Ghost” St. Patrick as he juggles family, loyalty, and life as a drug kingpin desperate to escape.

Ryan’s Picks: Alien: Earth takes the legendary franchise in a bold new direction, set two years before the original film. It follows human consciousness transplanted into synthetic bodies as hybrids face a terrifying alien threat — this time, on Earth. Overcompensating delivers a grounded, emotional story about Benny, a former high-school football star navigating identity, acceptance, and the struggle of hiding who he is during his first year of college. For fans of action and the DCU, Peacemaker returns in season two, throwing Chris Smith into an alternate dimension where his family is still alive — forcing him to face past choices while battling cosmic stakes.
