Paramount+ is a great place to go to if you're looking for your weekend binge-watch. Sure, it has movies and live sports, too, but Paramount's streaming service is constantly adding new shows or new episodes; it just added 147 new movies and shows on April 1. It's not just new original shows, either; the streamer also pulls in new shows from Paramount's networks, like CBS, as well as coproductions with international studios.

This weekend, I've got three shows worthy of your next binge session. "Made for March" is a must-watch docuseries for those who aren't ready for March Madness to be over. Then, there's a new show in the "Yellowstone" universe, "Marshals." Taylor Sheridan didn't create this one, but it uses characters that he developed for the original Paramount Network show. Finally, there's "FBI True," a true crime documentary show that just dropped its entire eighth season for you to stream.

'Made for March'

Watch On

Genre: Sports docuseries

What's it about? "Made for March" follows the Kansas Jayhawks and Michigan Wolverines as they make their way through the regular season and into March Madness. Both programs have one goal in mind: National Champions.

Why you should watch it: While Kansas may have bowed out in the second round, Michigan's quest for a National Championship is alive and well. They face off against Arizona on Saturday, so watch episode 1 first, then watch that game, then check out episodes 2-3 the following day.

Stream episode 1 of "Made for March" on Paramount+ starting April 4 (episodes 2-3 streaming starting April 5)

'Marshals'

Genre: Neo-Western drama

What's it about? This new show from the Sheridanverse may not feature Taylor Sheridan, but it does star "Yellowstone" actor Luke Grimes. He reprises his role as Kayce Dutton in this hybrid sequel/spin-off, which follows the former U.S. Navy SEAL and rancher as he joins a specialized group of U.S. Marshals tasked with protecting the Montana wilderness.

Why you should watch it: This show brings back a fair number of returning characters from "Yellowstone." Gil Birmingham, Mo Brings Plenty and Brecken Merrill all reprise their roles as Thomas Rainwater, Mo and Tate Dutton.
