This weekend's TV highlights are all about drama and intrigue, with a killer prison show being touted as the first must-watch programme of the year.
Waiting for the Out, starring Josh Finan as philosophy teacher turned prisoner Dan, has passed its halfway point and things are getting complicated. With his father's unresolved past catching up to him, Dan is forced to confront his demons in this tense and emotional rollercoaster.
But if prison drama isn't your thing, there's plenty of other great stuff on offer tonight. New Zealand's Best Homes with Phil Spencer is a feel-good show that celebrates the Kiwis' love of indoor-outdoor living. From stunning gardens to river views, it's a treat for anyone who loves design and architecture.
Meanwhile, Michael McIntyre's Big Show has some hilarious moments in store. YouTuber KSI joins the show, and things get weird when his phone is hijacked by Idris Elba and Dua Lipa - will they answer his suggestive texts? And Sophie Ellis-Bextor is subjected to a prank that sees her judge a dire talent contest.
If you're in the mood for something a bit more sinister, The Masked Singer has some great music lined up. Perrie Edwards joins the judging panel this week, and it's anyone's guess who will be unmasked next.
Last but not least, Film Choice brings us Jonathan Glazer's chilling new drama about Rudolf Höss, the Auschwitz commandant. Christian Friedel stars as the character in a performance that will leave you awestruck - but also deeply disturbed.
There's plenty of other great TV on offer tonight too, including the Golden Globe-nominated Springsteen biopic, which reunites two talented actors Jeremy Allen White and Jeremy Strong. And if sport is more your thing, there are some cracking live matches lined up, including tennis, football, rugby and cricket.

The format is so clean and easy to follow! I love how they've got separate sections for different types of shows - drama, lifestyle, comedy... it's like a well-structured playlist 
. And the use of emojis is on point 
. But what really caught my eye was the font choice - the bold headings and the clear typography make everything super readable 
. I could watch them format these highlights all day 
.
! been waiting for Waiting for the Out to drop and it sounds like it's getting really intense...like what happens when you put a philosophy teacher in prison? 
Dan's got some major drama going on with his dad's past and I need to know what's gonna happen next. 
... but seriously though, i'm low-key excited for the phil spencer show tho 
i love seeing all those sick homes and gardens on telly. and omg michael mcintyre's show is gonna be SO funny 
michael mcintyre's big show sounds hilarious btw ksi and idris elba are always good for a laugh 
I mean... prison dramas can be pretty compelling, right? 
But at the same time, they're kinda exploitative... I don't know, it's all about how you look at it, I guess 
. Meanwhile, design shows are super relaxing and a great way to unwind after a long day... or maybe they just put me to sleep? 
I'm totally down for some hilarious comedy, but Michael McIntyre's show can be kinda mean-spirited, right? 
. But, I don't know, I'm just gonna go with the vibe of this week's TV highlights... or am I? 
But can we talk about how few shows feature talented actors from underrepresented groups? Like, where are the roles for POC or LGBTQ+ actors?
. But, hey, at least there's something for everyone - just don't expect me to get all excited about it 
...
. But hey, if you're into that sort of thing, Waiting for the Out seems like a must-watch. And I have to say, Michael McIntyre's Big Show always has me laughing out loud 
. And lastly, that Springsteen biopic sounds like a must-watch - I've always loved his music 
... can't wait to see Jeremy Allen White and Jeremy Strong bring those characters to life 
... but I gotta say, the prison drama Waiting for the Out has me intrigued 
! Josh Finan's character sounds like he's got some serious issues to work through. And can we talk about how cool it is that Michael McIntyre's Big Show is bringing KSI and Idris Elba on the show?

but if u need something a bit more chill then best homes with phil spencer is def the way to go. i love design and architecture and it looks like such a great show 
& if you're in the mood for something a bit different, film choice is def worth checking out. Rudolf Höss' story is so tragic & chilling 
.
but seriously, have u seen that new springsteen biopic? christian friedel is literally soooo talented 
and idk if i can watch the auschwitz drama tho... it's all a bit too real for me 
... "Waiting for the Out" is just another formulaic prison show trying to tug at our heartstrings. And don't even get me started on Michael McIntyre's Big Show - it sounds like a cheap way to get laughs from desperate YouTubers
