We’re here to answer the age-old question: What to watch tonight? The change of season doesn’t just bring respite from sweltering temps, fall marks an onslaught of new TV shows and movies coming to streaming platforms and the silver screen.
Whether it’s things you missed, brand new premieres, or all-time classics, this month has some anticipated shows, movies, and documentaries coming to streaming platforms. Here’s what to watch in October.
Jake Gyllenhaal re-teams with his Southpaw director Antoine Fuqua in The Guilty (October 1), a crime thriller that finds Gyllenhaal’s police officer character stuck on dispatch duty while facing an internal investigation. After getting a phone call from a kidnapped woman, he’s thrust into the middle of a situation that quickly spirals out of control, all while wildfires engulf the city. Gyllenhaal co-stars with Ethan Hawke, Riley Keough, Paul Dano, and Peter Sarsgaard in the film, which mainly tells the story from Gyllenhaal’s perspective as he tries to marshal emergency responders to help find the woman.
If you’re looking for something a bit more fun but not sure what to watch, check out Netflix’s attempt to expand Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead universe with the prequel Army of Thieves (September 30). Set during the early days of the zombie takeover, Matthias Schweighöfer reprises his role as expert safe-cracker Ludwig, who gets pulled into a crew of fellow criminals to try and pull off a big bank heist in Europe. The trailer makes the movie feel like a version of The Fast and Furious, but with some flesh-eating zombies. Game of Thrones and Furious star Nathalie Emmanuel co-stars as the ringleader of the crew, while Schweighöfer pulls double duty as star and director.
Along with those new flicks, all nine seasons of the classic sitcom Seinfeld (October 1) will arrive on the platform after being unavailable for months. It’s the best failsafe when you’re struggling to decide what to watch.
It’s the moment Sopranos fans have been waiting for since the screen cut to black in 2007. For The Many Saints of Newark (October 1), series creator David Chase takes things back to the younger days of Tony Soprano, before he was the mob boss ruling over North Jersey. It centers on Tony’s mentor, Dickie Moltisanti (Alessandro Nivola), as he helps lead the DiMeo crime family while the 1967 Newark riots take hold in the city. The cast is stacked with many recognizable characters from the series, including Johnny Boy Soprano (Jon Bernthal), Uncle Junior (Corey Stoll), Livia Soprano (Vera Farmiga), and Tony himself, played by James Gandolfini’s real-life son Michael Gandolfini. We got an early look at the movie at the world premiere, and it holds many surprises and callbacks for die-hard Sopranos fans.
More into science-fiction than gangster stories? Here’s what to watch: Dune (October 22). The adaptation of the epic book follows the young Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) as he travels to a dangerous planet to help protect the supply of the most important resource in the universe. When all-out war breaks out, Paul must find a way to lead his family to survival. The all-star cast includes Jason Momoa, Josh Brolin, Dave Bautista, Oscar Isaac, Zendaya, and Javier Bardem.
Don’t miss Season 11 of Curb Your Enthusiasm (October 24) and Season 3 of the Emmy-winning drama Succession (October 17).
The world-spanning sci-fi drama series Invasion (October 22) comes to the platform this month, following a group of characters as they cope with an alien attack on Earth. The series is produced by Simon Kinberg, who brings his action movie chops from Deadpool and the X-Men series. The trailer reveals the massive scope of the show, which jumps from the perspective of an Army solider, police officer, a family fleeing the invasion, as well as NASA astronauts and scientists trying to find out how to fight back against the invasion. The show will start with three episodes dropping at once before moving to weekly releases thereafter.
The 10-episode series Swagger (October 29) follows a group of young basketball players and their coaches, inspired by the life of NBA superstar Kevin Durant, who’s an executive producer on the show. Like Invasion, the series will have three episodes released before moving to a weekly schedule.
Need to catch up on Ted Lasso? Now’s your chance. After nearly sweeping the 2021 Emmy Awards for its first season, Ted Lasso will premiere the finale of its second season this month on October 8. Jason Sudekis, who took home the lead comedy actor Emmy, has taken Coach Lasso to greater—and darker—depths this year, all while still keeping the overall sunny vibe of the show that’s become one of Apple TV+’s most popular. After being relegated to the lower division at the end of Season 1, the big question will be if Ted can lead AFC Richmond back to the Premier League once again.
Amazon Prime is bringing the scares to the platform in time for Halloween. As part of its Welcome To The Blumhouse anthology movie series, four new thrillers will debut this month, including Black as Night (October 1), Madres (October 8), The Manor(October 8), and Bingo Hell(October 1), which follows a group of senior citizens as their bingo hall gets sold to a demonic force—I mean, how could you not love a premise like that?
Amazon also takes a stab at adapting a classic 90s thriller into a TV show with I Know What You Did Last Summer, which will release its first four episodes on October 15. The series follows the story of a group of friends who are stalked by a killer after they conspire to cover up a car accident that left a man dead. The show updates the setting to contemporary times and will take elements from both the 1997 film and the 1973 book that the movie was based on.
The first three movies in the Die Hard series (October 1) are coming to the platform, giving you the chance to get ready for Christmas with Bruce Willis’ John McLane, while Edward Norton and Brad Pitt’s 1999 classic Fight Club (October 1) also starts streaming.
The new drama miniseries Dopesick follows the story of how the opioid addiction crisis has affected Americans across the country. The first episode is directed by Academy Award-winner Barry Levinson and the series stars Michael Keaton as a doctor who finds his patients are caught under the spell of addiction. The cast also includes Rosario Dawson, Peter Sarsgaard, Kaitlyn Dever, and Michael Stuhlbarg as Richard Sackler, the former president of Purdue Pharma—the company that developed OxyContin and has been accused of fueling the opioid crisis.
If you’re looking for something lighter, there are a whole bunch of great action movies hitting Hulu this month, including Harrison Ford’s Air Force One (October 1), Denzel Washington’s submarine thriller Crimson Tide (October 1), and some classic James Bond entries like Dr. No, Goldfinger, and From Russia With Love (all October 1), just in time for Daniel Craig’s No Time To Die, which also hits theaters this month (October 8).
Did you miss seeing Black Widow over the summer? Catch up with Scarlett Johansson’s swan song as Natasha Romanoff in the time between Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War. The action-packed movie starts streaming on October 6 and fills in the gaps of Natasha ‘s past, including her ready-made Russian spy family of the Red Guardian (David Harbour), Melina (Rachel Weisz), and sister Yelena (Florence Pugh), all while giving you the revelations and pure fun the MCU is known for.
Speaking of the MCU, the season finale of What If…also debuts on October 6, bringing together a wide range of characters the animated series has introduced—like Party Thor and Captain Carter—to take on a multiverse-level villain.
You can take off into space with the six-part docuseries Among the Stars (October 6), which follows NASA astronauts, engineers, and specialists as they embark on a mission to the International Space Station. In honor of the Halloween season,LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales hits on October 1, while Muppets Haunted Mansion premieres on October 8.

There’s no doubt when the weather turns colder as we settle into winter, stouts take center stage. And while we enjoy all its iterations: standard stout, imperial stout, and robust barrel-aged stouts, we think this malty, chocolate-filled beer’s close cousin deserves a little respect as well. Of course, we’re talking about the oft-overlooked porter. And the best porters, oh buddy, they’ll have you rethinking your seasonal bevvie of choice.
For those uninitiated, the porter style had its genesis in England like many other iconic beer styles. It first appeared in the 1700s and is (you guessed it) named after porters—individuals tasked with transporting luggage.
A confusing origin story
“Stout is the direct descendant of porter. In the 1700s, it was common to use the word ‘stout’ to refer to a bolder, higher-alcohol version of any beer style, much in the same way we use the word ‘imperial’ today,” says Zach Fowle, advanced cicerone and head of marketing for Arizona Wilderness Brewing Co. in Phoenix, AZ. “Porter was the most popular beer of the day, and over time, “stout porter” became a popular variant. But by the late 1800s, demand for regular porters evaporated, and stout porter shortened simply to stout.”
But more has changed between the 1800s and today than just our penchant for wearing top hats. “Today, most brewers seem to market beers as either stout or porter based on vibes, rather than on any notable stylistic differences,” he says.
Specifically, porters are known for their dark, almost pitch-black color and rich, sweet flavor profile. If you were to drink a porter and a stout side by side, you might even have difficulty discerning the differences between the two.
Stout versus porter is an enduring topic of discussion in the brewing industry. “While there’s no debating the porter came first—and stout used to be called stout porter, so it was a stronger version of a porter—the lines have become very blurred over the years,” says Rob Lightner, co-founder of East Brother Brewing in Richmond, CA.
“I would venture that even among professionals, a blind taste test would often yield inconclusive results,” says Lightner.
The difference between porters and stouts
Porters tend to be on the milder, more chocolatey end of the spectrum, Lightner says, whereas stouts are typically a little stronger and more roasty. Of course, this isn’t a hard and fast rule
Fowle agrees, “Porters tend to be fruitier, sweeter, and less bitter than stouts, with cocoa and caramel flavors in balance with dark malt bitterness. And stouts are usually hoppier, drier, maltier, and more coffee-forward—and may even have a touch of acidity.”
Whether or not they fit neatly into boxes, one thing’s for sure: both make for incredible cold-weather brews.
“As the nights grow longer, drinking a light, summery beer just doesn’t seem right,” says Fowle. “Porter is the perfect style for the transition to winter: warming and toasty yet not too heavy, with flavors of coffee, chocolate, and pie crust that correspond with autumn weather and holidays.”
It’s the perfect time to broaden your repretoire. Sweet, robust, warming, and well-suited to the season, here are the best porters to drink now.

1. Deschutes Black Butte Porter
There are few porters more well-respected than Deschutes’ iconic Black Butte Porter. It’s brewed with Cascade and Tettnang hops as well as 2-row, Chocolate, Crystal, and Carapils malts as well as wheat. This 5.5% ABV year-round offering is great for cold-weather drinking because of its mix of roasted malts, coffee, and chocolate. It’s a robust, subtly sweet beer perfect for imbibing on a crisp fall night.
The key to 360-degree muscle: 90-degree eccentric isometrics. It might seem like we’re throwing a lot of geometry at you, but the concept behind time under tension (TUT) is simple, says Joel Seedman, PhD, owner of Advanced Human Performance: “Perform the lowering phase of a movement in a slow, controlled fashion, usually 3 to 5 seconds; pause in the stretched position, typically around 90 degrees; then perform the lifting phase in a powerful yet controlled fashion.” Believe us, a time-under-tension workout can humble even seasoned lifters…Eccentric isometrics are like the pressure cooker of training.
“Rather than mindlessly performing slow-tempo reps, you’re using the increased time under tension as a means to fine-tune your body mechanics and alignment, which requires more mental engagement and focus,” Seedman adds.
If you want to forge functional muscle mass and strength while simultaneously bulletproofing the joints and connective tissue, give this 10-move, full-body eccentric isometrics workout a go.
Directions
Perform the following moves as 90-degree eccentric isometrics following the above protocol. Use heavy weight, but not at the detriment of proper form. Rest 60 to 90 seconds between sets and 2 minutes between circuits. Perform once every 2 to 4 days for optimal results.
Best Time-Under-Tension Workout for Total-Body Strength
Circuit 1
Marius Bugge
A. Barbell Back Squat
Set a squat rack up with heavy weight, then grasp bar and step under it. Squeeze shoulder blades together, then stand to unrack bar and step back with feet shoulder-width apart. Inhale, hinge at hips and slowly bend knees to 90 degrees. Pause, keeping natural arch in low back, then extend through hips to powerfully stand. 3 x 4-6 reps
Marius Bugge
B. Renegade Row
Start in the top position of a pushup with hands shoulder-width apart on moderate-to-heavy dumbbells (shown). Explosively drive right elbow back to row dumbbell toward ribs while balancing on opposite hand and feet. Pause, then slowly lower weight, stopping a few inches above floor. Switch sides after all reps are done. 3 x 5 reps each side
Circuit 2
Marius Bugge
A. Dumbbell Bentover Row
Stand with feet hip-width apart, holding two moderate-to-heavy dumbbells in front of thighs, palms facing you. Push hips back and hinge torso forward so it’s nearly parallel to floor, soft bend in knees. Dumbbells should be near shins. Drive elbows back to row weights toward ribs. Pause, then slowly lower down for 3 to 5 seconds. 3 x 4-5 reps
Marius Bugge
B. Incline Dumbbell Chest Press with Legs Raised
Set an adjustable bench to a 30- to 45-degree angle and lie back with dumbbells in either hand. Engage core and lift legs off floor, flexing feet. Press weights overhead, palms in. Slowly lower to 90 degrees, staying tight and compact. Pause, then drive weights up directly over chest. 3 x 4-5 reps
Circuit 3
Marius Bugge
A. Dumbbell Bulgarian Squat
Stand lunge-length in front of a flat bench, holding heavy dumbbells in each hand by your sides, palms facing in. Rest the ball on top (shoe’s laces) of your right foot behind you on the bench. Slowly lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the floor. Pause, then drive through your heel to stand. Switch sides after all reps are complete. 2 x 3-4 reps each side
Marius Bugge
B. Single-leg Romanian Deadlift
Stand with feet hip-width apart holding dumbbells or kettlebells. Drive right leg up, foot flexed, knee aligned with hip, making a 90-degree angle. Hinge at hips as you slowly lever your torso toward floor, lowering weights and driving right leg back for counterbalance. Hold, then squeeze glutes to reverse. 2 x 3-4 reps each side
Circuit 4
Marius Bugge
A. Pullup
Hang from a pullup bar using an overhand grip with legs extended and feet flexed. Engage lats and draw shoulders down your back, then pull yourself up until chin is higher than hands. Pause at the top, then slowly lower. Pause at bottom, then reset before your next rep. 2-3 x 4-5 reps
Marius Bugge
B. Kneeling Overhead Barbell Press
Hold a bar with moderate-to-heavy load at shoulder level with forearms perpendicular to floor. Kneel at end of bench with feet flexed to grip edge for support. Inhale, engage your core and glutes, then press the bar overhead, pushing your head forward so it passes your face, exhaling at the top. Slowly lower until elbows are at 90 degrees, then hold to maintain tension. Begin your next rep from here. 2-3 x 4-5 reps
Circuit 5
A. Dumbbell Pushup
Place hands on dumbbells (this provides greater range of motion) at shoulder width and feet wider than shoulder width with just toes touching the ground. Keep head neutral and hips high to increase tension on core, chest and tris and reduce stress on spine. Slowly lower to the floor. Stop once elbows hit 90 degrees, pause, then push up to start. 1-2 x 6-8 reps
B. Biceps Curl
Stand with feet hip-width apart with moderate-to-heavy dumbbells in each hand hanging by sides. Engage biceps to curl the weights up, keeping upper arms still. Pause at the top, then lower slowly. Don’t let arms drop all the way down to keep greater time under tension on biceps. 1-2 x 6-8 reps

If you haven’t picked up a jump rope since elementary school, you’re missing out on a fantastic cardio workout. Not only will you burn a ton of calories in a short amount of time—200 to 300 calories in 15 minutes—but jump ropes can also improve your coordination and agility. Better yet, jumping rope doesn’t require much space, so it’s easy to do at home, and it’s often more mentally stimulating than jogging or swimming.
Choosing a Jump Rope
When deciding which jump rope is best for you, it’s important to determine what your goals are. While lightweight speed ropes are popular for cardio-focused training, weighted or drag ropes will be best for those focused on strength training.
No matter what your training goals are, we’ve got you covered with this roundup of 10 jump ropes from top brands including Crossrope, TRX, Rogue, and more.
