You can also stream today, MTV Documentary Films 76 Days, the Oscar Shortlisted documentary that looks at life in the earliest days of the COVID-19 crisis in Wuhan, China; For Heaven’s Sake, a docuseries blending comedy and crime for a unique take on uncovering the truth; ; 60 Minutes+, a new form of the flagship series; and Stephen Colbert Presents Tooning out the News, the second season of the animated daily news satire series.

While not available quite yet, coming this Spring is a new CG version of Rugrats, along with a reboot of Behind the Music, and No Activity, a half-hour police comedy will transition from live action to animated for season four.
