TV Guide's top picks

Severance Season 2 finale (Friday, Apple TV+)

Finally! All your theories on Ben Stiller's hit sci-fi series about the dissection of the working class will be proven false, and you can go back to just watching it and enjoying it like a normal human being. For those of you who like to pick every detail apart, the episode title is "Cold Harbor." Go nuts. And don't worry; the show has officially been renewed for Season 3, and Stiller has said it won't take three years to get the next season out!

• Severance's Dichen Lachman on Gemma's Cold Harbor experience      
  

Sing Sing (Friday, Max) and Wicked (Friday, Peacock)

A pair of Oscar-nominated movies make their streaming debuts this weekend, and they'll both make you want to take the stage. In Sing Sing, Colman Domingo (nominated for Best Actor at this year's Academy Awards) plays an incarcerated man who participates in the prison's Rehabilitation Through the Arts program, which allows prisoners to stage theater plays. Jon M. Chu's blockbuster Wizard of Oz prequel Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba, who would eventually become the Wicked Witch of the West, and Ariane Grande as Glinda. If you didn't sing along in the theaters because you were too embarrassed, now's your chance to show off those pipes at home: Peacock is also streaming the singalong version. 

The White Lotus (Sunday at 9/8c, HBO/Max)

Mike White's exercise in social class has three more episodes left in its third season, and Jason Isaacs' Timothy Ratliff still hasn't told his family he might be headed to prison for being a business d-bag. Maybe this will be the week!

Wolf Hall: The Mirror and Light (Sunday at 9/8c, PBS)

The follow-up to the lauded 2015 miniseries sees Thomas Cromwell (Mark Rylance) make his ascent (and quick descent) in Henry VIII's (Damian Lewis) court. It's currently one of the best-reviewed shows of the year.
