When it comes to deciding what to watch, it can get overwhelming. Fast. There are so many options out there. Even if you keep it to just the best streaming services, there are dozens of new shows and movies added every day. Lucky for you, it's my job to know exactly what's out there. So I've compiled a TV guide on what to watch tonight.
I've gone through everything from Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV, etc. I've scoured the best free streaming services like Tubi. I've even added some movies you might have missed in theaters that are finally available to buy or rent to stream at home.
So let's dive into it. Here are all the new movies and shows (and live events) you can stream tonight (August 26), and where to watch them. For more picks, check out these free Prime Video movies you can stream right now.

Top shows and movies to stream tonight
'Love is Blind: UK' season 3 (Netflix)
Genre: Reality dating series
What's it about? "Love is Blind: UK" season 3 debuted just last week. But it's already over ... mostly. This season, 30 singles from England, Scotland, and Wales entered the show's pods to see if they could find the right person. Now, just four couples are left, and they're about to step up to the altar in this two-episode drop.
Why you need to watch it: 14 couples actually got engaged in this season of "Love is Blind," but only six were chosen to have their weddings on camera. Of those six, one broke it off in episode 8, and another is rumored to have left for personal reasons. Will these four remaining couples have drama-free weddings? You'll have to watch to find out.

'Ted Lasso' season 4 (Apple TV)
Genre: Sports comedy-drama series
What it's about: Coach Ted Lasso (Jason Sudeikis) is back as the coach of Premier League club AFC Richmond. But this time, he's coaching the club's women's team. Can he recreate the magic of the past three seasons? Or has his luck finally run out?
Why you should watch it: I wasn't sure we needed a season 4 of "Ted Lasso." But this latest chapter seems to have won over most viewers, and it won us over in our "Ted Lasso" season 4 review. I've caught up on the show as well, and I've found it to still be charming and funny, if admittedly predictable.

'Reacher' season 4 (Prime Video)
Genre: Crime thriller series
What's it about? Alan Ritchson is back for another Reacher adventure. This one kicks off with the titular former investigator witnessing the death of a woman (Karen Kwong-Chip) in a Philadelphia subway car. Now, he, a Philadelphia cop (Tamara Green) and the woman's brother (Christopher Rodriguez Marquette) have teamed up why the woman took her own life. They just have to steer clear of the CIA, and perhaps even more dangerous killers.
Why you need to watch it: I reviewed the "Reacher" season 4 premiere for Tom's Guide, and I loved it. The show sticks to what made the past three seasons a success, and Ritchson has never been more perfectly cast as the hulking yet witty Jack Reacher. Episode 4 ended on a bit of a bombshell reveal, so I can't wait to watch episode 5.
