STREAMING & EARLY PRIMETIME
Anything Is Possible: The Serge Ibaka Story (Crackle, 3 a.m.): This documentary is about Serge Ibaka, who grew up poor in Brazzaville. His mom died when he was 7 and his dad was in prison when he was 12. Yet he achieved his dream of becoming an NBA Champion.
Battlefield Earth 🎥 (Tubi, 3 a.m.): Is this movie terrible? Terrible is an understatement. I saw it in theaters. But sometimes, I like to watch its awfulness. It is one of the new titles this month on the free-streamer Tubi.
Celebrity Bowling 📺 (Crackle, 3 a.m.): Sure, you can find this show on Amazon Prime, but this month, the first season of the show comes to the free streamer Crackle, alongside several other titles, including select seasons of classics like Bewitched, Charlie's Angels, Barney Miller, The Partridge Family, and 227.
The Code (Ovation, 7 p.m.): SERIES PREMIERE. No, not the CBS show from not-too-long-ago. This is an Australian import from a few years ago. To fight an extradition order to the US, Ned and Jesse agree to help the federal police in a case that starts with a double murder. The investigation leads to an underground internet-based exchange board and the exploitation of a teenager.✔️
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind 🎥 (Netflix, 3 a.m.): This classic Charlie Kauffman-penned movie about erasing a person from your memory is one I still love a whole lot. It is also one of several titles now available on Netflix in August.

Harley Quinn (HBO Max, 3 a.m.): No, these aren't new episodes. Instead, both seasons of this spectacular (and uber-adult) DC animated show about Gotham's anti-heroine come to HBO Max. It is one of several titles that go to the Max this month.
The Mummy 🎥 (Peacock, 3 a.m.): While the new selections aren't long for the new streamer that is only a few weeks old, the first two Mummys along with the Jurassic Park and Matrix trilogies are new to Peacock. Peacock Peacocks franchises!
⭐ The Sonata (Crackle, 3 a.m.): A gifted musician inherits a mansion after her long lost father dies under mysterious circumstances. She discovers his last musical masterpiece riddled with cryptic symbols that unravels an evil secret.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan 🎥 (Hulu, 3 a.m.): Still trying to forget the recent Star Trek movies? Same! Hulu has an answer! Revisit the masterpiece Wrath of Khan alongside all the other TOS and TNG movies, which are among titles now available on Hulu in August.
