From High Kicks to High Drama – Here's What's On and What's Worth Your Screen Time

Welcome to your Daily Dose of TV Deliciousness and What to Watch, straight from The TV Cave—where remote-wielding is an art form and channel-surfing is a sport. Whether you’re in the mood for jaw-dropping true crime, emotional birdwatching (yes, that’s a thing now), or football that dominates half the alphabet (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, ESPN—you get it), we've got your watchlist locked and loaded.

🌅 Early Risers, Assemble! What to Watch

🥋 Streaming Premiere | 3:00 AM ET | Netflix

Karate Kid Legends Get ready to crane-kick your feelings. A kung fu prodigy with baggage (played by American Born Chinese’s Ben Wang) lands in NYC and finds himself in a classic East-meets-West showdown.

Wax on, trauma off.
