25 new titles drop across Prime Video, Max, Paramount+ and more—here’s what’s new tonight

Tech and entertainment site Tom’s Guide reports that on August 17 (US time), a hefty batch of 25 new movies and shows landed across a range of streaming platforms, including Prime Video, Paramount+, and Max (the service formerly known as HBO Max). The roundup focuses on titles that are “available to watch tonight,” listing fresh arrivals service by service. The mix spans everything from new seasons of fan‑favorite comedies to library catalog films and a handful of brand‑new thrillers, making it a good snapshot of where US streaming lineups stand right now.

One of the headline additions is season 18 of long‑running sitcom “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” which can be streamed via Hulu. Early episodes see the gang heading to a Renaissance fair, experimenting with non‑alcoholic beer, and somehow turning a casual baseball game into chaos—exactly the type of cringe‑inducing antics fans expect. While Japanese viewers may not have access to every platform or title mentioned, tracking these US drops is useful: many of the shows highlighted in such roundups are strong candidates to reach Japanese streaming catalogs later, especially if they generate enough buzz in their home market.
