Are you just about ready to keel over waiting for Halloween? Good, because Hulu and Netflix are serving up Season 7 of American Horror Story for your viewing pleasure this week, and they’re both adding a couple of supremely spooky movies (time to stop being a chicken and watch The VVitch).
But if scares aren’t your thing, don’t worry! Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, and HBO have plenty of other premieres to keep you occupied this week, including the streaming debut of The Shape of Water, a miniseries starring Emma Stone, and Tony Danza’s return to TV.

The Good Cop
Our Picks:
Stone and Jonah Hill star in this limited series about two patients who sign up for a medical trial. Only this medical trial involves the duo venturing into each other’s minds to partake in Lord of the Rings‘ style fantasy sequences and ’80s family life daydreams.
Hilda is a cartoon you’ll actually want to watch with your kids. Or entirely on your own. The story of an adventurous little girl who’s reluctant to leave her life in the country behind looks absolutely adorable, and it’s based on a critically-acclaimed graphic novel.
Danza is back in what appears to be light procedural perfect for rainy afternoon marathons. The Who’s the Boss star plays a bad cop who helps his good cop son solve crimes.
