“Halo,” “Evil,” and all the Treks are available for your holiday TV binging. Enjoying a few days off? Why not grab the popcorn and dive deep into some of those favorites? It’s time to get caught up with some of the biggest series that Paramount+ premiered this year. Have you seen how Anson Mount nailed the role as Captain Christopher Pike in “Star Trek: Strange New Worlds?” Have you laughed at the slightly irreverent and completely hysterical “Star Trek: Lower Decks?” Go dark with the horror of season 3 of “Evil.” Gamers might enjoy their favorite video game “Halo” brought to life in the first season on TV.
Paramount+ has something for everyone, but nerds especially will appreciate its content. With so much out there to watch, it can be hard to stay on top of every new release. Here’s a way to make your ‘what to watch’ search a little easier.

“Halo” – Premiered March 24, 2022
Based on the iconic Xbox franchise, HALO stars Pablo Schreiber (“American Gods”) as the Master Chief, Spartan-117; Natascha McElhone (“Californication”) as Dr. Halsey, the brilliant, conflicted and inscrutable creator of the Spartan super soldiers; and Jen Taylor (“Halo” game series, RWBY) as Cortana, the most advanced AI in human history, and potentially the key to the survival of the human race.
“Star Trek: Strange New Worlds” – Premiered May 5, 2022
STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS is based on the years Captain Christopher Pike manned the helm of the U.S.S. Enterprise. The series features fan favorites from season two of STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, Anson Mount as Captain Christopher Pike, Rebecca Romijn as Number One and Ethan Peck as Science Officer Spock. The series follows Captain Pike, Science Officer Spock and Number One in the years before Captain Kirk boarded the U.S.S. Enterprise, as they explore new worlds around the galaxy.
Star Trek: Lower Decks” Season 3 – Premiered August 25, 2022
Created by Emmy Award winner Mike McMahan (“Rick and Morty,” “Solar Opposites”), season three of STAR TREK: LOWER DECKS challenges the U.S.S. Cerritos ensigns in (hilarious) ways they could never imagine, starting with a shocking resolution for season two’s epic cliffhanger finale.
The Starfleet crew residing in the “lower decks” of the U.S.S. Cerritos includes Ensign Beckett Mariner, voiced by Tawny Newsome; Ensign Brad Boimler, voiced by Jack Quaid; Ensign Tendi, voiced by Noël Wells; and Ensign Rutherford, voiced by Eugene Cordero. The Starfleet characters that comprise the U.S.S. Cerritos’ bridge crew include Captain Carol Freeman, voiced by Dawnn Lewis; Commander Jack Ransom, voiced by Jerry O’Connell; and Doctor T’Ana, voiced by Gillian Vigman.
“Evil” Season 3 – Premiered June 12, 2022
EVIL is a psychological mystery that examines the origins of evil along the dividing line between science and religion. Season three of EVIL begins moments after the end of season two: when a newly ordained David and Kristen kiss. The two not only have to navigate this fraught new reality, but contend with David’s involvement with “the entity,” an espionage unit within the Catholic church. Meanwhile, Ben finds his brain breaking from their unsolved cases and turns to his sister for help.
EVIL stars Katja Herbers, Mike Colter, Aasif Mandvi, Michael Emerson, Christine Lahti, Kurt Fuller, Andrea Martin, Brooklyn Shuck, Skylar Gray, Maddy Crocco, and Dalya.
