Take a break from March Madness by watching the top new shows premiering this week on
Netflix , Prime Video and other streaming services , as well as broadcast and cable TV. This week's TV slate features the debuts of Ewan McGregor's historical drama "A Gentleman in
Moscow," the crime thriller "Parish" with Giancarlo Esposito and the action-adventure "Renegade Nell." Plus, "American Rust" returns with a second season at a new home. Here are our picks for the top new shows this week. I had the good fortune to see Notaro perform this set live and it was as drily humorous as the comedian’s previous work. One extended story chronicles a
Late Night health scare that brought firefighters to Notaro’s door — and had her questioning everything. She also spins yarns about her kids’ antics, a weird meeting with Reese Witherspoon, an airport “Make Believe” lounge and exercising outside her physical therapist’s office. And without spoiling anything, I’ll say the set ends with a truly side-spitting bit where Notaro expands her performance range. Premieres Tuesday, March 26 at 12 a.m. ET on Prime Video After getting canceled by Showtime, the crime drama was picked up by Freevee before moving to its subscription sibling Prime Video. The second season, subtitled “Broken Justice,” sees Jeff Daniels and Maura Tierney returning as former chief of
police Del Harris and his lover Grace Poe. In their Rust Belt town of Buell,
Pennsylvania, they’re trying to rebuild their lives after the harrowing events of season 1. Now, Del has rejoined the Pittsburgh police force but struggles to balance work with his life with Grace in Buell. Then, the town is rocked by more murders creating chaos for everyone. Premieres Thursday, March 28 at 12 a.m. ET on Prime Video This gripping historical drama, adapted from Georgia Hunter's bestselling novel, is inspired by incredible true stories from the
Holocaust. The sweeping epic follows a Jewish European family separated at the start of World War II. Some go into hiding; others are taken to concentration camps. The Kurcs are determined to survive, and those who do, seek to reunite with their loved ones who have scattered across the world. In the face of darkness and evil, their bonds serve as a reminder that hope can and will endure. Upgrade your life with the Tom’s Guide newsletter.

Russian Revolution circa 1917, Rostov finds himself on the wrong side of history. Though he is spared execution like other aristocrats, he is exiled to an attic room in the opulent Hotel Metropol. Some of the most turbulent decades in Russian history pass by, as Rostov remains within the walls of the hotel. But as the years pass, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery and a greater understanding of the value of friendship, family and love.
