Paramount Plus loads up October 6–12 with Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape from Now landing Tuesday, October 7—an unflinching look at the late rock legend’s life and health battles—alongside the thriller Vicious.

Paramount Plus is rolling out a weirdly eclectic week: a heavy Ozzy Osbourne doc, a new scare machine from Bryan Bertino, and fresh seasons of two network-procedural favorites. Here is what to expect October 6-12.

Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape from Now lands Tuesday

Dropping Tuesday, October 7, 'Ozzy Osbourne: No Escape from Now' takes a deep look at the late music legend beyond the stage persona. It digs into his personal life and his health battles, including Parkinson's, charting the cost of a life lived loud. If you have even a passing interest in rock history, this is the big swing of the week.

Vicious brings Friday-night chills

On Friday, October 10, 'Vicious' arrives from writer-director Bryan Bertino, with Dakota Fanning headlining. The setup is delightfully odd: a young woman opens a mysterious gift from an even more mysterious late-night visitor and tumbles into an eerie rabbit hole that turns into a fight for her life. Yes, that premise is as strange as it sounds. That is the point.

Sunday is for closing arguments: Matlock S2 and Elsbeth S3

Sunday, October 12, delivers two series premieres. 'Matlock' returns for Season 2 with Kathy Bates as Madeline Matlock, a once wildly successful attorney who retired rich and then un-retires to join a top-tier law firm. Her real superpower is outsmarting everyone in the room and dragging hidden rot inside her own firm into the light.

'Elsbeth' is back for Season 3. Carrie Preston stars as the delightfully off-center attorney whose unconventional brain helps the NYPD catch criminals. It is created by husband-and-wife duo Robert and Michelle King, and it leans into the comedy-crime mix with precision.
