Whether you’re a streaming snob or a primetime purist, here’s everything worth watching today.

☕ EARLY MORNING STREAMING (a.k.a. “Who Needs Sleep?”)

🎤 Andrew Santino: White Noise

3:00 AM ET — Hulu Crack open your insomnia like a cold one and let Andrew Santino scream into the void so you don’t have to. This comedy special promises to "solve all the world's problems," which feels like a stretch... but hey, he’s got jokes. And chaos.

🛡️ Chief of War

3:00 AM ET — Apple TV+ Kaʻiana's worst fears are realized (not even one cup of coffee into the day!), and Kamehameha is this close to calling full-on war. Basically, ancient drama that puts modern beefs to shame.

🌌 Foundation – Season 3 Finale

3:00 AM ET — Apple TV+ The Mule is NOT playing around. Gaal and the Second Foundation make their move while Empire takes an epic nosedive. Series not yet renewed, so watch like it’s the last time... because it might be.

👽 Invasion

3:00 AM ET — Apple TV+ Jamila and Clark are out here trying to find Aneesha, while the rest of the squad gets tossed into some sketchy, top-secret mission. Trust no alien. Trust no one.

🧙‍♂️ Wizards Beyond Waverly Place – Season 2 Premiere

7:00 PM ET — Disney Channel (TWO Episodes) Roman’s getting too good at magic, so Billie freaks and casts a Reverse Curse. Long story short: baby Roman is here, and the internet is not okay. Plus, the cast teases a spicy fan theory about Alex...

🏴‍☠️ 8:00 PM ET – High Stakes, Higher Drama

🏰 Outlander: Blood of My Blood

8:00 PM ET — Starz Lord Lovat’s playing prophecy puppet master while Dougal dips into some shady political backdoor deals. The MacKenzies are in trouble, and you’re gonna want popcorn for this one.

⚖️ 10:00 PM ET – Courtroom Climax

10:00 PM ET — USA Network Rudy’s walking a tightrope between career suicide and doing the right thing for Dot. Legal drama with big moral swings. Might just make you yell at your screen — and we love that.

💡 Final Word from The TV Cave
