What's on TV this week—The 'Burbs, Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette

Welcome to What’s On, our weekly roundup of notable shows and streaming films. Here is what’s happening on TV from Sunday, February 8 to Saturday, February 14. All times are Eastern.

New this week 

The ’Burbs (Peacock+, Sunday, 12 a.m., series premiere)

Keke Palmer and Jack Whitehall lead this Peacock thriller, a spin on the ’80s dark-comedy classic, as a couple whose quaint suburban life is upended with the arrival of a creepy next-door neighbor (played by Justin Kirk). Paula Pell, Julia Duffy, Mark Proksch, Kapil Talwalkar, and Haley Joel Osment round out the cast. Read The A.V. Club’s review.  

Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. & Carolyn Bessette (FX and Hulu, Thursday, 9 p.m., series premiere)

Ryan Murphy & co. tackle the highly publicized courtship and tragedy-stricken marriage of American golden boy John F. Kennedy Jr. and fashion publicist Carolyn Bessette (Paul Kelly and Sarah Pidgeon, respectively). As is the case with most Murphy properties, the limited series is a starry affair, with Naomi Watts as Jackie O, Alessandro Nivola as Calvin Klein, Grace Gummer as Caroline Kennedy, and Dree Hemingway as Daryl Hannah. Look for The A.V. Club’s review on Thursday. 

How To Get To Heaven From Belfast (Netflix, Thursday, 3 a.m., series premiere)

Derry Girls creator Lisa McGee concocted this eight-episode comedy-thriller, which follows  thirtysomething friends (portrayed by Roisin Gallagher, Sinéad Keenan, and Caoilfhionn Dunne) who embark on a chaotic quest to solve the mystery of an old schoolmate’s suspicious death. The A.V. Club’s review publishes Thursday. 

Super Bowl LX (NBC and Peacock, Sunday, 6:30 p.m.)

Fresh off his historic Album Of The Year win at last weekend’s Grammys, Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny headlines the Super Bowl Halftime Show. (Oh, and there’s some football too.) Check out The A.V. Club on Sunday night for our take on the performance.
