What's New on TV, Netflix Streaming, Digital, and DVD/Blu-ray This Week: November 30-December 6

At a loss for what to watch this week? From new DVDs and Blu-rays, to what's streaming on Netflix, we've got you covered.

New Video on Demand, Rental Streaming, and Digital Only

"Imba Means Sing"
This heartwarming documentary follows the journey of 20 Ugandan children in the African Children's Choir who spent 500 days on tour singing their way to better lives. The doc debuts globally On Demand on December 4, with 100 percent of the filmmaker profits going back to the choir.

Here's an exclusive clip of the kids sharing what they want to be when they grow up:

"Ted 2"
The foul-mouthed teddy bear is back! In this sequel, Ted marries his girlfriend, then they hit a snag with the birth of their child, since the law sees Ted as property, not a person. Cue Amanda Seyfried and Morgan Freeman as attorneys getting all "Legally Blonde" for Ted's cause. Mark Wahlberg returns as John, with Seth directing and voicing Ted. The digital release is this week, with the DVD/Blu-ray to come -- including several bonus features -- on December 15.

"The Transporter Refueled"
The fourth movie in the "Transporter" franchise loses Jason Statham as Frank Martin, but puts Ed Skrein (briefly Daario on "Game of Thrones") in the same role for another nonstop action ride. The critics didn't love this one, but it still has its defenders and you can check it out for yourself with the Digital HD release on December 1, and the Blu-ray/DVD to follow on December 8.

New on DVD and Blu-ray

"Fear the Walking Dead""The Walking Dead" spinoff that isn't technically a spinoff only had six episodes in its first season, but you can watch them all in a row -- with special features -- when Season 1 hits Blu-ray and DVD on December 1. The two-disc sets include character bios and "A Look at the Series."

"Amy"
The powerful Amy Winehouse documentary arrives on DVD/Blu-ray on December 1, complete with special features and 17 previously unseen scenes from Amy's personal archives.

Here's one:

"Cooties"
Elijah Wood, Alison Pill, and Rainn Wilson star in this horror comedy about killer zombie children at an elementary school and the teachers who must work together to escape. The movie is out on Blu-ray, DVD, and Digital HD on December 1 (it's already On Demand), with special features including deleted, extended, and alternate scenes, a gag reel, commentary, and a couple of featurettes.

New on Netflix

"A Very Murray Christmas"
Bill Murray + a dozen A-list stars + Sofia Coppola + Christmas = Must-See TV. Not that it's on TV, it's on Netflix. Either way, this Coppola-directed special is an "homage to the classic variety show" and it arrives December 4. The cast includes George Clooney, Miley Cyrus, Paul Shaffer, Amy Poehler, Julie White, Dimitri Dimitrov, Michael Cera, Chris Rock, David Johansen, Maya Rudolph, Jason Schwartzman, Jenny Lewis, Rashida Jones, and more. Set inside New York City's iconic Carlyle hotel, the story opens with Murray preparing to host a live, international holiday broadcast. After a blizzard shuts down the production, he makes the best of the situation by singing and celebrating with friends, hotel employees, and anyone else who drops by. Miley supposedly steals the show, so see it for that, if nothing else.

"Real Rob"
Here's another Netflix Original, starring Rob Schneider in a semi-autobiographical comedy series, kind of like Aziz Ansari's "Master of None." This scripted series is meant to be an exaggerated yet brutally honest depiction of Schneider's real life. Season 1 guest stars include George Lopez, David Spade, and Norm Macdonald. It hits Netflix December 1.

"I'm Brent Morin"
Comedian Brent Morin, of NBC's "Undateable," shot his first-ever one-hour comedy special back in August and it's coming to Netflix on December 1. Here's Netflix's tease: "In a witty solo, Brent Morin serves up infectious laughs on the agony of puberty, hot guy problems, and the time a girl dumped him for a magician."

TV Worth Watching

"America's Next Top Model" (Friday on The CW at 9 p.m.)This is it. The entire "ANTM" series ends with the finale of Cycle 22. Who will win, Nyle, Lacey, Mamé, Mikey, or Dammit It'd Better Be Nyle? We choose that last one.

"The Great Holiday Baking Show" (Monday on ABC at 10 p.m.)
An American version of the warm and delicious U.K. hit "The Great British Bake Off" is coming to ABC, complete with Mary Berry as a judge, and "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" star Nia Vardalos and her husband Ian Gomez as hosts. The November 30 premiere is focused on Christmas cookies, with "Cake Week" to follow on December 7, and so on.
