    aka Charlie Sheen

    One of Hollywood’s most notorious figures is now seven years sober, and as the centerpiece of a publicity blitz surrounding his new memoir (The Book of Sheen, out this week), Charlie Sheen at 60 consents to an exhaustive interview for a two-part documentary from director Andrew Renzi. He reflects on his meteoric rise, his personal lows (drug and alcohol abuse, a careless predilection for sex workers, getting fired from Two and a Half Men) and how he somehow survived it all. Among the colorful personalities also weighing in: ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller, Men costar Jon Cryer, former Hollywood Madam Heidi Fleiss and even his former drug dealer. Expect eyes to open and jaws to drop.

    Downton Abbey Celebrates the Grand Finale

    They left TV and Masterpiece nearly a decade ago, but the Crawleys of Downton Abbey and their devoted staff of servants have never entirely gone away. With a third and final film in the beloved period franchise opening this weekend, the stars gather at London’s posh Savoy Hotel to reminisce about Downton Abbey‘s past and present, sharing the fondest of memories. You know this is why you’ve been saving that bottle of bubbly.

    The Girlfriend

    What could be more welcome at midweek than a streaming guilty pleasure? This sleek, sexy melodrama depicts a battle of wills between two femmes fatales: Laura, an icily controlling and fabulously wealthy mother (House of Cards‘ stunning Robin Wright) and the working-class looker named, of all things, Cherry (House of the Dragon‘s scintillating Olivia Cooke), who has captured the fancy of Laura’s adored doctor son Daniel (Laurie Davidson). “This one is … different,” Daniel tells his extremely clingy mom before she meets Cherry, sparking an almost immediate mutual distrust. The story unfolds from both Laura’s and Cherry’s alternating perspectives, showing events from different angles that leave you wondering what really happened. One thing’s for certain: It’s not going to end well. All six episodes are available for a juicy binge-watch.

    Platonic

    Three is becoming a crowd when Will’s (Seth Rogen) friskiness in the guest house becomes a concern for his best bud Sylvia (Rose Byrne) and too-accommodating husband Charlie (Luke Macfarlane), whose time in therapy has made him more assertive about demanding change. While Will goes home-hunting, he also makes time to help Sylvia with the holiday retirement party she’s planning for Charlie’s law firm, no one expecting the bombshell that’s about to drop. Guest stars include The Office‘s Paul Lieberstein as Charlie’s therapist, whose very name is a joke, and Saturday Night Live alum Aidy Bryant as Sylvia’s potential new client.
