Between traditional television, video-on-demand releases, and a growing number of streaming services, it can be hard to keep up with what one should watch week to week. Fortune is here to help you keep track of new releases as well as the occasional older title worth checking out. Take a look at this weekend’s notable arrivals, a couple you may have missed earlier in the week, and what else is coming soon:
Netflix
Cobra Kai: The third season of the series—initially a YouTube Original and a continuation of the Karate Kid movie series—won’t come to Netflix until 2021. But the first two seasons of the show will officially be available to watch on the streamer on Aug. 28.
All Together Now: Auli’i Cravalho (Moana) stars as a gifted teen who hopes to attend Carnegie Mellon University, but she’s harboring a secret: She’s homeless. The movie, based on the book Sorta Like a Rock Star, is available for streaming Aug. 28, and also stars Carol Burnett, Justina Machado, Judy Reyes, and Fred Armisen.
I Am a Killer: Released: The crime docuseries spinoff will be available to viewers on Aug. 28.

Plus, two Daniel Craig James Bond films, Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, will be available to watch on Netflix starting Aug. 31.
