This weekend is shaping up to be big. A lot of errands to run, parties to attend... who am I kidding? I'm catching up on TV. This weekend has some big ones, the return of two classic shows, a new spinoff, and arguably the best crime drama going is back (Fight me, High Potential!) To help you figure out what's on your watchlist, let's get you what to watch this weekend for the weekend of September 12.

What to Watch This Weekend: Wizards Beyond Waverly Place, season 2

Return to the Wizard World one more time, as the second season of Wizards Beyond Waverly Place debuts September 12 on the Disney Channel. With some familiar cast, some new, and a light, light sprinkling of Selena Gomez as Alex Russo, return to this magic sitcom drama and find out if Minister McFigglehorn is actually evil.

What to Watch This Weekend: Only Murders in the Building season 5

The gang is back to investigate the suspicious death of Lester last season -- and whoever is doing it has a penchant for fingers. This lighthearted crime drama has some of what i love best about BBC crime series, but with an all-star cast - getting even more stars this season with Renee Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Keegan-Michael Key, Christoph Walt, and more.

What to Watch This Weekend: Futurama season 13

The future can't be canceled, and neither can Futurama. In just a few days, we'll be brought into the ancient history of Dr. Zoidberg's planet, the return of the Robot Devil, and more. And don't worry, there's already another season greenlit after this one - so our hearts can't be hurt again just yet.

What to Watch This Weekend: Love is Blind France season 1

Can I say this already has the best cast yet? Chloe's singing is... something... in a good way. And none of the men give off major red flags just yet. Tell us your thoughts in the comments.

Looking ahead, here's what to watch in September 2025 on streaming platforms.
