MUST-WATCH TITLES FOR MARCH MARCH 3 – HBO Original Limited Series THE REGIME *Premiere*
  • The darkly comedic, six-episode HBO Original limited series THE REGIME, starring Academy Award® winner Kate Winslet, tells the story of a year within the palace of a modern European authoritarian regime as it unravels. After not leaving the palace for quite some time, Chancellor Elena Vernham (Winslet) becomes increasingly paranoid and unstable and turns to a volatile soldier, Herbert Zubak (Matthias Schoenaerts), as an unlikely confidant. As Zubak’s influence over the chancellor grows, Elena’s attempts to expand her power eventually result in the palace and the country fracturing around her. The series premieres March 3 at 9 p.m. ET, and follows a weekly release schedule with new episodes streaming Sundays at 9 p.m. ET.
MARCH 8 – WONKA *Movie Premiere*
  • From Paul King (Paddington), David Heyman (Harry Potter, Barbie), Alexandra Derbyshire (Paddington), and Luke Kelly (Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical), Warner Bros. Pictures’ WONKA is an intoxicating mix of magic and music, mayhem and emotion, all told with fabulous heart and humour. Starring Timothée Chalamet in the title role, this irresistibly vivid and inventive big screen spectacle introduces audiences to a young Willy Wonka, as he becomes the world’s greatest inventor, magician, and chocolate-maker.

MARCH 8 – IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA *Seasons 1-10*
  • IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA features Mac, Dennis, Charlie, Sweet Dee, and Frank, five ne’er-do-wells who own and operate Paddy’s Pub in Philadelphia. Their constant scheming usually lands them in a world of hurt, yet they never seem to learn from their mistakes. Starring Danny DeVito, Charlie Day, Kaitlin Olson, Rob McElhenney, and Mary Elizabeth Ellis. Seasons 1-10 of the series drop on Crave on Friday, March 8.

MARCH 14 – Max Original Series THE GIRLS ON THE BUS * Premiere*
  • THE GIRLS ON THE BUS is a comedic, character-driven drama that chronicles four female journalists who follow every move of a parade of flawed presidential candidates, while finding friendship, love, and scandal along the way. The series centres on Sadie McCarthy (played by Melissa Benoist), a journalist who romanticizes Tim Crouse’s Boys on the Bus book and who scrapped her whole life for her own shot at covering a presidential campaign for the paper of record. Sadie hits the trail and eventually bonds with three female competitors: Grace (Carla Gugino), Lola (Natasha Behnam), and Kimberlyn (Christina Elmore). Despite their differences, the women become a found family with a front-row seat to the greatest soap opera in town: the battle for the White House. The series premieres Thursday, March 14, and follows a weekly release schedule with new episodes streaming Thursdays.

MARCH 22 – THE AMERICANS *Seasons 1-6*
  • THE AMERICANS is a period drama about the complex marriage of two KGB spies posing as Americans in suburban Washington D.C. during the Reagan administration. The arranged marriage of Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell) grows more passionate and genuine by the day, but as the pressures and demands of the job grow heavier, the personal toll becomes almost too exhausting to bear. Having revealed their true identities to their teenage daughter Paige (Holly Taylor), Philip and Elizabeth’s ability to protect their cover and their family’s safety deteriorates. Seasons 1-6 drop on Friday, March 22.
MARCH 29 – PAM & TOMMY *Limited Series*
  • Set in the Wild West early days of the Internet, PAM & TOMMY is based on the incredible true story of the Pamela Anderson (Lily James, Yesterday) and Tommy Lee (Sebastian Stan, The Falcon & the Winter Soldier) sex tape. Stolen from the couple’s home by a disgruntled contractor (Seth Rogen, Long Shot), the video went from underground bootleg-VHS curiosity to full-blown cultural obsession when it hit the Web in 1997. A love story, crime caper, and cautionary tale rolled into one, the eight-part original limited series explores the intersection of privacy, technology and celebrity, tracing the origins of our current Reality TV Era to a stolen tape seen by millions but meant to have an audience of just two. All eight episodes are available for streaming on Friday, March 29.

MARCH 22 – Crave Original Series THE TRADES *Premiere*
  • From Trailer Park Boys Inc. and Kontent House Productions Inc., the eight-part Crave Original comedy series is a love letter to skilled-trade workers, written with grit, humour, and heart. Set in a blue-collar community where the high stress of working in a refinery is balanced by the comedic high-wire antics of its plant workers, the series centres around Todd (Robb Wells), a pipefitter, and his sister and roommate, Audrey (Anastasia Phillips, MOONSHINE), who follows in her big brother’s footsteps pursuing a career in the trades as a carpenter, just like their father Rod (Patrick McKenna, THE RED GREEN SHOW). The first two episodes of THE TRADES drop on Friday, March 22, followed by two new episodes on subsequent Fridays.
