Hulu’s Can’t-Miss Week: Every New Show and Movie Dropping September 29–October 5, 2025
Hulu rolls into September 29–October 5 with heavy hitters: Krapopolis Season 3 premieres Monday, September 29, bringing Dan Harmon’s ancient Greece comedy back, while Chad Powers launches with a two-episode premiere to headline a fresh week of TV and movies.
Hulu is stuffing the fridge this week: new seasons, a buzzy star-led comedy launch, and a giant midweek dump of movies timed perfectly for spooky season. The headliners are Dan Harmon bringing his ancient-world sitcom back and Glen Powell debuting a two-episode comedy about a quarterback hiding in plain sight. Also, yes, The Simpsons is somehow at season 37. We live in interesting times.
The big swings
Monday is all about animation and staple comfort TV. Dan Harmon’s 'Krapopolis' returns for season 3, still set in ancient Greece and still juggling gods, monsters, and very human family drama while trying to run one of the world’s first cities. The Simpsons kicks off season 37 (that number is not a typo) and Bob’s Burgers starts season 16. America’s Funniest Home Videos is back too, because some traditions never die. There’s also season 2 of 'Universal Basic Guys' and an anime drop: 'Vermeil in Gold' arrives complete, both subbed and dubbed. If you like true-crime deep dives, Monday also brings the full docuseries 'Death in Apartment 603: What Happened to Ellen Greenberg?'
Tuesday is the launch of 'Chad Powers' with a two-episode premiere. Glen Powell stars and co-created the show with Michael Waldron. He plays Russ Holliday, a once-hyped college QB who torched his shot and tries to sneak back into the game under a new identity: the eccentric Chad Powers. Feels like a sports-movie disguise bit stretched to series in the best way. Also landing Tuesday: the 2024 horror title 'Bloody Axe Wound.'
The midweek movie deluge
Wednesday is a catalog tsunami: Blade (plus its sequels and Spanish-language versions), a big chunk of the Die Hard lineup, the Twilight saga, the Saw run through The Final Chapter, Scream 1-3, the entire Ip Man quartet, Halloween (2018), Barbarian, Sinister, The Empty Man, Nightmare Alley, and more. Family options show up too: Hotel Transylvania 1-2 and the Madagascar trilogy. It is a very October pile, with some action-comfort rewatches sprinkled in. Minor inside baseball: Hulu is adding a surprising number of 'En Espanol' versions alongside the English cuts, which is a nice touch if your household toggles languages.
The rest of the week
Thursday brings 'Abbott Elementary' back for season 5, plus 'Shifting Gears' season 2, two new history doc series, and a big Married at First Sight refresh (season 18 and the 'Afterparty' spinoff’s first season). 'Mafia Mamma' shows up if you want a goofy crime-comedy watch. Friday is a mini M. Night Shyamalan night with 'The Sixth Sense' and 'The Happening' landing together, plus 'Werewolves' (2024) and a pair of 'LOL Live' specials. The weekend leans hard into reality TV and anime: The Bachelorette (seasons 18-19), Ghost Adventures, 90 Day Fiance, Sister Wives, Paranormal Lockdown, and Halloween Wars in a bundle the listing spells as 'Compete' but clearly means 'Complete.' Anime fans get 'Fire Force' season 3 episodes 1-12 dubbed, 'My Hero Academia' kicking off its final season (subbed), 'Spy x Family' season 3 (subbed), and on Sunday, the 'Digimon Beatbreak' season 1 premiere (subbed).
