Weekend Watch on Neon with Soundkeeper Brooke

Ahem, sorry Lead Detective Sound Keeper Brooke*

This isn’t just your average watchlist. Each week, Soundkeeper Brooke goes undercover into the depths of Neon, decoding clues and uncovering hidden gems to bring you a top-secret selection of shows and films.

Every week comes with a new theme - think of it as your mission briefing. Whether it’s mystery, suspense, or something totally unexpected, Brooke’s picks are always worth investigating.

Your assignment: Scroll down to reveal this week’s classified recommendations. Then, grab your popcorn and get ready to binge.

Week 1:

Top Trenchcoat Twisters (aka Detective Whodunnits) 

  • Knives Out - A rich guy mysteriously dies, and suddenly everyone in his family remembers how to lie professionally. The house is full of secrets, the suspects are full of themselves. I watched it twice…once for the mystery, once for the knitwear.
  • True Detective - Each season of True Detective throws a fresh murder at detectives barely holding it together (unlike me who is thriving, obviously). With four seasons now streaming on Neon, buckle up and trust no one. Especially the quiet ones.
  • Memento - A guy with memory loss tries to solve a murder using Polaroids, tattoos, and vibes. This film is both brilliant and confusing!
  • The Nice Guys - Two idiots, one case, zero chill. Based in the 70’s, it is pretty much chaos in flared pants, and I loved every second. Just trust me its f***** great
  • Scooby Doo! Return to Zombie Island - There’s mystery, mayhem, and way too many things rising from the swamp. I watched it with snacks and mild regret. Classic Scooby chaos.

Looking for the latest TV series to watch? Or maybe you're keen to binge that show that everyone's been talking about… either way, NEON has got you covered. From all seasons of Yellowstone to the new Outlander prequel Blood of my Blood – you can get it on NEON from only $12.99 a month.
