But don't worry, it's not all heroes and villains in this sense, with a few dramas keeping their own. Here are the top 10 most streamed TV shows of the week...

1. Stranger Things

Quickly now. Go, go, go. Credit: Netflix

The most streamed (and wildly unsurprising so) show of the week is the Duffer brothers' Stranger Things, which recently returned for the first volume of Season 4. Our core characters are all a lot more grown up this time around, but Hawkins is still just as scary and monster-riddled as ever (and the soundtrack is, as always, banging). — Sam Haysom, Deputy UK Editor

What we thought:You’ve waited a long time to go back to Hawkins — three years to be exact (or a whole pandemic, a few collapsing democracies, a Capitol insurrection, an ongoing war, etc, etc, etc). Certainly, Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 1 rewards that patience by welcoming you back with an over-abundance of what we've always loved about this cult hit since 2016. — Jess Joho, Staff Writer

2. The Boys

Eric Kripke's gory superhero series has punched its way back onto our screens with a third season, following Billy (Karl Urban) and Hughie (Jack Quaid) as they go up against Homelander (Antony Starr) again after the events of Season 2. Expect gratuitous violence aplenty, from Season 1 all the way to the brand new Season 3 streaming from June 10. — S.H.

What we thought:In some ways, Season 2 is The Boys we came to know in 2019. It's still relentlessly dark and oppressively bleak in its portrayal of the world. It's also still gory as hell, and perhaps even moreso this time. But if you're here, you already know what to expect and are prepared for graphic scenes of explosive dismemberment and compound fractures. — Adam Rosenberg, Senior Entertainment Reporter and Editor

3. Ms. Marvel

Have you met Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) yet? Marvel's newest screen superhero, a Pakistani-American teen living in Jersey City, is the star of Ms. Marvel— and thanks, we absolutely love her. A huge Captain Marvel fan, Khan feels like an outsider at school (classic hero origin situation). Buuuutshe gets superpowers, so GO GET 'EM. From writer Bisha K. Ali and directors Adil El Arbi, Bilall Fallah, Meera Menon, Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, this Disney+ plus series is one of the week's biggest shows. — Shannon Connellan, UK Editor

What we thought: The visceral thrills of blockbuster superheroics will surely take center stage before these six episodes are finished. But by slowing down in the early hours to consider context and put serious thought into how a superhero is really born, Ms. Marvel's hopeful remix of the origin story is already a winner. — A.R.

Disney+'s latest Star Wars foray, Obi-Wan Kenobi, which follows the titular hero (played by Ewan McGregor) on a quest to save Princess Leia (Vivien Lyra Blair) from the clutches of Inquisitor Reva (Moses Ingram) 10 years after the events of Episode III. It became the most-watched Disney+ original after its opening weekend. The people simply can't get enough Star Wars. — S.H.

The sixth and final season of the sneakily alluring tale of 20th-century Birmingham gangster Tommy Shelby (Cillian Murphy) has finally hit Netflix, and everyone's jumping on the Shelby train. — S.C.

6. The Orville

The third season of Seth MacFarlane's sci-fi dramedy sees the return of the titular USS Orville, with the crew — led by Captain Ed Mercer (MacFarlane himself) — heading off on a series of new interplanetary adventures. Make the most of it, too, as there's currently a question mark over whether or not a Season 4 will happen. — S.H.

7. Better Call Saul

If you missed Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk), you're clearly not alone. The Breaking Bad prequel, now in its sixth and final season, remains one of the most-watched shows of the week. Odenkirk, Rhea Seehorn, and Jonathan Banks remain excellent, as do the rest of the cast. Plus, Breaking Bad stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul are confirmed to appear this season, so it feels like the gang's really getting back together.* — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter

What we thought:For several key players, the stakes have never been higher. Reputations, relationships, and lives are on the line, and mounting tension in the first two episodes alone exposes seldom-seen sides of characters we thought we had all figured out. —Nicole Gallucci, former Senior Editor

Apple TV+'s big "what if" series, following an alternate timeline of the global space race, is back for a third season.

9. Barry

Dark comedy is back on the menu. Credit: Merrick Morton / HBO

Bill Hader and Alec Berg's dark comedy about a relocating hitman is back for its third season, following on from a tense cliffhanger at the end of Season 2. Hader returns as the titular hero, starring alongside Sarah Goldberg, Anthony Carrigan and Michael Irby in this well-written dramedy.* — S.H.

What we thought:From the show's premiere in 2018, Barry's underlying moral dilemma was whether or not the eponymous antihero is a good man. He knows for a fact that he wants to be, but time and again Barry lashes out, kills someone, or torpedoes his own life while trying to stay the course. Season 3 pushes this further, confronting the Barry we've come to know with the man he was before Los Angeles and an increasingly blank, threatening space where his envisioned future used to be. We're still rooting for him, but we can't guarantee he'll be okay. — Proma Khosla, former Senior Entertainment Reporter
