  "account": "Tonight presents a plethora of new shows and movies streaming on various platforms. On Prime Video, \"Blue Beetle\" (2023) is available for those who enjoy superhero movies. The film stars Xolo Maridueña as Jaime Reyes, an FBI agent who gains powers after encountering an alien relic. Although the movie was a box office flop, it remains relevant due to its inclusion in the new DC canon.\n\nParamount+ offers \"Furious,\" a crime drama series starring Emmy Rossum as FBI agent Alice Black. The show follows Alice as she investigates a serial killer who is also a sex trafficking survivor seeking vigilante justice. The series has received positive reviews, with a 98% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an 87% fresh rating from audiences.\n\nHBO Max features \"Thanksgiving\" (2023), a film that might be worth watching during the holiday season. Meanwhile, Hulu airs the first two episodes of the new season of \"It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia,\" where the gang engages in various antics such as heading to a Renaissance Faire, trying non-alcoholic beer, and playing baseball. The show has remained consistently entertaining over its 18-season run.\n\nOther streaming services also offer content to keep viewers entertained. Disney+ features the upcoming \"2026 LoL KeSPA Cup,\" while Peacock showcases the reunion part 2 of \"The Real Housewives of Atlanta\" and \"The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th\" season 5. Additionally, there are live events such as MLB games, WNBA matches, and various news shows airing throughout the night.",
