There's an intriguing mix of titles coming to top streamers this week.

Did you have a good Father’s Day weekend? I’ve always been of the personal opinion that such holidays should be accompanied by a three-day weekend. Having to work on a Monday in mid-June with the weather at a perfect spot for barbecuing seems like an out-and-out crime.

But alas, I have still not become the arbiter of who gets days off when. With that being the case, we’ll have to find some way to get through the week together, and I’ve got a list of TV shows and movies to stream every day that should help move things right along.
