‘Love Island: Reunion Special’ | Peacock
Ready for one last taste of summer fun? The cast of “Love Island USA” Season 8 will reunite, with plenty of unresolved conflicts, intense conversations, and emotional tension to come. Hosts Andy Cohen and Ariana Madix will try to keep things contained, but it’s a pretty explosive group.

‘The Varnell Hill Show’ series premiere | Paramount+
Executive produced by Martin Lawrence and Bentley Kyle Evans, this workplace comedy series brings fan-favorite character Varnell Hill into the spotlight. Set behind the scenes of Varnell’s late-night talk show, the series focuses on the comedian’s fight to stay relevant in a changing entertainment world.
Hounded by network executives with never-ending notes, a writers’ room that doesn’t know how to keep up, and celebrity guests with mercurial demands, Hill is just trying to keep his head above water and keep his show on the air.

‘The Mandalorian and Grogu’ streaming premiere | Disney+
One of the summer’s first blockbusters is now making its way to streaming. “The Mandalorian and Grogu” arrived on Disney+ at light speed; we predicted the movie would take another two weeks or so to reach the streaming service, but apparently the studio felt fans deserved to have it a fortnight earlier.
“The Mandalorian and Grogu” sees the titular bounty-hunting duo traveling the galaxy, hunting down Imperial warlords in the name of the New Republic. But when they’re assigned to track down the wayward son of Jabba the Hutt, Mando and Grogu quickly find themselves neck-deep in more trouble than they bargained for.

‘Chad Powers’ Season 2 premiere | Hulu
It’s been years since hotshot quarterback Russ Holliday made the unforgivable mistake that took his career down. But Holliday’s dreams live again thanks to Chad Powers, the persona he has used to walk onto the South Georgia Catfish football program.
But in Season 2 of “Chad Powers,” Holliday’s behavior off the field is starting to draw suspicions, especially from Coach Hudson and Gerry. The walls are closing in on Russ’s lie, and if he and Danny want Chad to survive the regular season and lead the Catfish to the College Football Playoff, the only person who can help them is the last person who wants to: Ricky.
Friday, Sept. 4
‘Silo’ Season 3 finale | Apple TV
Dive into the saga of a dystopian society of 10,000 souls, fated to live underground under circumstances they don’t understand. The show bounces back and forth between a present in which a woman named Juliette Nichols tries to learn the secrets of her home in the silo, and the past, where viewers learn more about the disaster that forced humanity into hiding.
Throughout the season, fans have watched as Juliette tries to recover from memory loss as the silo faces a new threat. And in the past, audiences have watched as a journalist and a congressman are pulled inexorably into a catastrophic chain of consequences. Where does it all end this season? You’ll just have to watch and see!
