Apple TV+ introduces a dark comedy limited series starring Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Kathryn Hahn and Casey Wilson called “The Shrink Next Door” Friday. Inspired by true events and the podcast of the same name, the series follows the decades-long manipulation and exploitation by psychiatrist Dr. Isaac “Ike” Herschkopf (Rudd) and his longtime patient Martin Markowitz (Ferrell). Dr. Ike is accompanied by his unsuspecting wife Bonnie Herschkopf (Wilson) and though Marty may be defenseless against Dr. Ike, his sister Phyllis is not (Hahn).

On Sunday, Paramount+ brings out its big guns with a major drama, “Mayor of Kingstown” starring Jeremy Renner, Dianne Wiest and Kyle Chandler, which focuses on life in a small town where the prison is its biggest industry.

On Thursday, Paramount+ is launching a reboot of “The Game,” originally a comedy that was originally on the CW in 2006 then canceled in 2009. The show was revived by BET in 2010 and blended in more drama (as well as shooting in Atlanta), becoming a big hit for the network and lasted until 2015. Six years later, the series is back a third time, this time with a blend of original and new characters.

Paris Hilton is back again as well on Thursday, this time with a Peacock reality series about her marriage.
