26 Can't-Miss Paramount+ Shows to Stream in April 2026, Featuring The Madison
Stop sleeping on Paramount+. With a deep bench of CBS heavy-hitters and Nickelodeon nostalgia, it’s every bit as binge-worthy as Netflix or HBO Max. This April, Watch With Us spotlights two new must-sees on our best Paramount+ list, led by breakout pick The Madison.
Paramount+ keeps getting shrugged off next to Netflix and Max, but it shouldn't. Between the CBS and Nickelodeon back catalogs, there's a ton of TV worth your time. And this April, I'm adding two very different shows to my running list of the best stuff on Paramount+ right now: a brand-new Taylor Sheridan neo- Western and a viciously funny workplace comedy that earned its stripes on Comedy Central.
Why bother with Paramount+ at all?
Simple: it deserves as much attention as the big dogs like Netflix and HBO Max ( yeah, it's just called Max now). The service pulls in a strong library from channels like CBS and Nickelodeon, which means comfort-food classics and steady new drops without the chaos.
April picks I'm adding to the best-on-Paramount+ list
- The Madison — Brand-new neo-Western drama from Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan, headlined by Michelle Pfeiffer and Kurt Russell. That mix of frontier morality and Hollywood heavyweights is exactly Sheridan's lane, and with this cast, I'm in.
- Corporate — A sharp, bleakly funny Comedy Central series that ran from 2018 to 2020. If you've ever stared down a soul-sucking inbox and wondered what your job is doing to you, this is the satire that says the quiet part out loud.
