Netflix is continuously striving to enchant viewers with one great streaming film after another. Earlier this year, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck’s The Rip proved a hit for the platform, garnering the attention of millions of viewers around the world. Coming up on their slate are David Fincher's The Adventures of Cliff Booth and Greta Gerwig's Narnia adaptation.

There's a new title at the top of the U.S. Netflix streaming charts. Proving more popular currently than the Duffer Brothers' new series, The Boroughs, the second season of The Four Seasons, and even the true-crime series Michael Jackson: The Verdict, reality show Outlast: The Jungle is a big hit after debuting last week. Viewers simply can't get enough of the third season in the Outlast series, as 16 new contestants battle it out in the tropical jungle of the Panama Islands. But what else could you be watching this week on the world's biggest streamer? To help you decide, here's a list of three shows you should binge-watch on Netflix.

Before Netflix had Wednesday Addams (Jenna Ortega) going viral for her dark, gothic dance in Wednesday, Archie Comics had already given the world a character with the same vibes, and Netflix’s live-action took her to the next level. Although that series got cancelled on Netflix, the character is now making a fresh return with a new release this year.

After four seasons that have consistently kept viewers hooked from start to finish, George R.R. Martin's 100% Rotten Tomatoes Western is certainly not slowing down anytime soon. The series was renewed for a fifth run back in February, before Season 4 had even premiered, and we can confirm that filming, which began on March 16, 2026, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, remains underway for the new chapter. Season 5 is expected to premiere sometime in 2027, though a date should be announced soon; in the meantime, fans will be thrilled to bits to learn that Season 4 of the critically acclaimed series is heading to Netflix US this summer.

When JJ Maybank (Rudy Pankow) died at the end of Season 4 of Outer Banks, fans were dealt a major blow. However, creators Jonas Pate, Josh Pate, and Shannon Burke have actually made the best decisions for the show's upcoming and final season. For the first four seasons, JJ was a great character who helped move the storyline forward, but his own personal character arc fell flat, leaving little room for the Pogues to grow as individuals or as a group. It was often the Pogue's altercations with the Kooks — namely, Rafe Cameron (Drew Starkey) — led to countless twists and turns for all the characters in Season 4.

Netflix has had a fairly strong performance in the first half of 2026, with several hit releases, particularly when it comes to its shows. The streaming service has released several acclaimed and popular series this year, with the promise of more to come. It’s a good time to be a subscriber, but that doesn’t mean it’s all amazing.

The horror genre is having quite the moment, as evident with the massive success of Backrooms and Obsession. But if you don't feel like venturing to the theater, Netflix has plenty of options to choose from. To finally come across Luis Javier Henaine's Disappear Completely, one has to dig deep — almost as deep as the movie's main character in his search for a cure to the curse that threatens to turn him into a kind of living corpse, a karmic punishment for his own misdeeds as a photojournalist specialized in crime scenes.
