  • The Witness

Netflix scrolling fatigue is real. One minute you're opening the app for a quick episode, the next you've spent 45 minutes watching trailers, reading synopses, and somehow ended up rewatching the same comfort series for the fifth time. With new titles dropping every week, figuring out what's actually worth your precious couch time can feel like a full-time job.

That's where we come in. From buzzy new releases and binge-worthy dramas to addictive reality TV, laugh-out-loud comedies, and edge-of-your-seat thrillers, we've rounded up the very best shows on Netflix Singapore right now. Whether you're planning a solo sofa session or your next group watch, these are the series deserving a spot at the top of your queue.

The Witness

This is a must-watch for true crime fans. But, be warned, it’s an emotional one. The story follows the investigation into the brutal real-life murder of a young mother in London in the 1990s, and the most heartbreaking part of the story is that the only witness to the crime was her almost three-year-old son. From the initial witness questioning to the long-term botched investigation and criminal trials, it’s a dark and profoundly sad portrayal of a family almost torn apart by its desperate search for justice, closure, and peace. So, if you like your dramas dark and very real, you’ll probably smash this three-part limited series in one arvo.

Teach You a Lesson

Still not quite over the gaping hole Squid Game left in your life? Check out this highly anticipated Korean drama based on the controversial yet super popular webtoon, Get Schooled. The story follows an elite operative from the "Educational Rights Protection Bureau” whose mission is to infiltrate schools and teach bullies and corrupt staff a lesson using some pretty violent and unconventional methods. It tones down some of the most controversial elements of the original webtoon (which was banned in some countries), but it still has that dark and twisted vigilante vibe. And if that sounds like your thing, you can watch all ten episodes right now.

RAFA

If you’re a tennis fan, stop everything you’re doing, block out your work calendar, and stream this brand-new four-part doco right this minute. Looking at the life and career of one of the sport’s GOATs, it features interviews with Rafael Nadal himself, along with his uncle Toni, his wife Maria, and tennis legends, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and John McEnroe. Expect a mix of insights into his childhood, career, and mindset, as well as a particular focus on the last injury-plagued year of his career. Basically, if you like documentaries that explore the determination, pain, grit, and sacrifice it takes to succeed, you’ll love this one.

The WONDERfools

We featured this one on our best Korean shows on Netflix list, and thanks to its excellent mix of 90s nostalgia, action, and comedy vibes, we think it deserves a spot here too. The plot centres around an unlikely group of superheroes who gain erratic and bizarre powers after encountering some chemical waste (as you do). And, when they also come across a cult-like organisation with an evil plan (again, as you do), they have to find a way to master their powers and work together to save the day. It’s basically Korean Misfits meets The Umbrella Academy, and we’re totally here for it.

Kylie

But enough about us…from docos to drama and everything in between, here are all of the best shows on Netflix right now. You’re welcome.

Nemesis

This one also made our top Netflix thrillers list, because everyone seems to be bingeing it — and loving it — right now. Basically, it’s a cop and robber show but with a fresh, slick, tense, and super addictive feel. Think maverick cops, high-stakes heists, and ongoing cat-and-mouse beef. It’s only eight episodes long, so be prepared to potentially smash it all in one weekend if you’re not disciplined.

Legends

Like a good drama based on a true story? Then you probably want to check out this short and sweet six-part series about the incredible undercover investigation carried out by ordinary civil servants to stop the UK’s huge 90s heroin epidemic. Steve Coogan leads the cast brilliantly in a role that could not be more different to Alan Partridge if it tried. If you’ve only seen him in comedy so far, it’s worth tuning in just to see his acting chops (and you should probably also check out Philomena at some point, but we digress). The tone is gritty and no-nonsense, and you’ll get plenty of character depth and high-stakes action, too. If you’re not keen on violence, give it a swerve. Otherwise, you’re good to go.

Should I Marry A Murderer?

Can’t resist true crime? Or maybe you like your docos with a bit of oomph and jeopardy? Either way, you’ll probably love this three-part series. It follows a forensic pathologist who decided to collaborate with the police as a covert witness to bring her fiancé and his brother to justice for a hit-and-run years earlier. It’s true crime meets spy thriller, so get ready for plenty of drama and suspense along the way. 

Man on Fire

Not to be confused with the 2004 Denzel Washington movie, this latest adaptation of the classic A.J. Quinnell novel follows a troubled former U.S. Special Forces Captain as he tries to protect his dead best friend’s teenage daughter from a political and criminal conspiracy. If you like your TV shows intense, sombre, and super violent, this one’s for you.

Running Point

Imagine Succession but glossier, lighter, and waaaaay easier to watch. Starring Kate Hudson and inspired by the real-life owners of the Los Angeles Lakers, this star-studded comedy-drama is the bingeable hug you’ve been waiting for. It’s funny, chaotic and blends workplace drama with family chaos and cinderella-story sports vibes. It’s Chad Powers meets The Devil Wears Prada meets Hacks, and you can smash both seasons 1 and 2 right now. 

Beef

The first season of Beef scored big at the Emmy Awards, and for good reason. Starring Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, it followed the chaotic, sinister, and violent spiral that followed after a road rage incident between two strangers. It was basically Parasite but faster, funnier, and more satirical. And, although the brand-new second season has a completely new cast and covers an entirely new story, we’re confident that you’ll be able to enjoy the same brilliant combo of dark comedy and psychological thriller vibes. Enjoy. 

This Is A Gardening Show

If your comfort-watch sweet spot sits somewhere between deadpan comedy and slow-living escapism, This Is A Gardening Show might be your next low-stakes obsession. Hosted by Zach Galifianakis, the new series takes a delightfully unpolished approach to gardening.

Rather than pretending to be a green-thumb guru, Galifianakis is all about learning, fumbling, asking questions and finding humour in the process, which is exactly what makes it so watchable. Across the series, gentle comedy meets a genuine appreciation for nature, community and the small joys of growing things. Whether you’re a seasoned plant parent or can barely keep basil alive, this one is a charming little reset. 

The Dinosaurs 

Ever wondered what a mashup between David Attenborough and Jurassic Park with Morgan Freeman narration would look like? Well, wonder no more. This 4-part documentary combines next-gen CGI, scientific insight, and Freeman’s dulcet tones to take you on an epic cinematic journey from the earliest proto‑dinosaurs to their eventual extinction at the end of the Cretaceous period 165 million years later. Enjoy.

Vladimir

Starring Rachel Weisz and Leo Woodall, this eight-part dramedy‑thriller follows the unravelling of a middle-aged English professor as she becomes increasingly obsessed with her handsome younger colleague. It’s dark and intentionally provocative, and jumps back and forth between fantasy and reality. It’s got a great cast, but the reception so far has been a bit of a mixed bag. But don’t let that stop you from giving it a go and telling us what you think!

One Piece

Not to be confused with the anime version, this live-action adaptation of the popular Japanese manga follows a young pirate and his crew as they travel the seas in search of a legendary treasure known as the One Piece. Think pirate adventure vibes in fantastical, dreamlike locations with plenty of action, humour, and heart. Season 2 of One Piece dropped on March 10, 2026, so you can watch both seasons in full right now.

That Night (Esa Noche)

Fancy a thriller that mixes high-stakes tension with weirdly relatable family dynamics? This Spanish-language drama follows three sisters trying to cover up a hit-and-run accident on a family holiday in the Dominican Republic. It’s dark, suspenseful, and is only six episodes, so you can smash it in no time. 

Virgin River

 
Based on the best‑selling novels by Robyn Carr, Virgin River follows the story of a midwife who moves from LA to a remote Northern California town to get a fresh start after dealing with personal loss. But, as she gets to grips with her new job running the local clinic and falls in love with a super dreamy local lumberjack type, things get complicated. It’s basically a sleepier, slightly more grown-up version of Hart of Dixie with a drop-dead-gorgeous backdrop. If you haven’t seen it, you can smash seasons 1-6 right now. And, if you’re all caught up and desperate for me, Virgin River Season 7 is available to stream as of March 12, 2026.

Dynasty: The Murdochs

 
This four‑part doco gives us an in-depth look at what is essentially real-life Succession. Blending analysis with expert interviews, archive materials, and journalistic commentary, it explores the decades of family tension, politics, and rivalries surrounding the powerful Murdoch family and their global news empire. All four episodes of Dynasty: The Murdochs are available to stream as of March 13, 2026.

Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model

No matter your viewing vibe right now, here's all of the best shows on Netflix right now. Happy watching.

How to Get to Heaven from Belfast

If you liked Derry Girls, you should probably check out How to Get to Heaven from Belfast as soon as it drops on 12 February 2026. The story follows three lifelong friends who reunite to investigate their estranged fourth friend’s mysterious death. Expect a chaotic ride with dark humour and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. It’s Bad Sisters meets Russian Doll, and you can smash it all from 12 February 2026.

Queer Eye (Season 10)

If you just need a dose of warmth after a hectic long weekend, then settle in for the tenth and final season of Queer Eye. If you’re unfamiliar with the concept… first of all, we’re jealous that you have 9 extra seasons to catch up. Secondly, it’s basically a fun and heartwarming makeover show with five fabulous gay guys working with down-on-their-luck ‘heroes’ on every aspect of their lives. You don’t need to think too much about this one — just relax and let them take you on a beautiful and inevitably colourful ride.

Cashero

In the mood for some Korean sci-fi superhero goodness? Cashero follows a so-called ordinary man who gains an awesome superpower, only to realise that it costs him money every time he uses it, and the strength of it depends on how much cash he’s carrying at the time. Oh, and there’s also some evil entity out to steal his powers, too. Intrigued? All eight episodes of Cashero dropped on December 26, 2025, so you can smash the whole limited series in one weekend if you so desire.

Emily in Paris (Season 5)

Watch on YouTube

Emily in Paris Season 5 is finally here, and if you haven’t binged it already since all ten episodes of it dropped on 18 December, get ready for more romance, drama, fashion choices that are as infuriatingly unrealistic as they are fabulous, and oh-so-much European eye candy. So, if you need a warm and silly pick-me-up in between Christmas family arguments…Emily’s your go-to gal.

Stranger Things Season 5

 
A little underdog series called Stranger Things just launched and yep, it's chaotic as ever. But when is Stranger Things season five being released you ask? The first four eps drop on 26 November, followed by three episodes on Christmas Day (a little extra stocking stuffer?) and the finale episode hitting screens on New Year's Eve to ring the year out.

A Man on the Inside (Season 2)

We love Ted Danson. There, we said it. We loved him in Three Men and a Baby, and we loved him in The Good Place. And now, forty-three years after his first breakout role in a little-known American series called Cheers, we love him in A Man on the Inside. If you haven’t seen the first season, it’s basically about a retired college professor who, in the aftermath of his wife’s death, goes undercover in a retirement home to investigate a theft. It’s sweet, heartwarming, and has a delightful blend of mystery, heart, and humour that’s bound to keep you engaged. All episodes of Season 1 and 2 are available to stream in full now, so sit back and enjoy the warm and cosy silliness.

The Beast In Me

Were you a Homeland diehard? Then you’ll want to dive straight into The Beast In Me, where our major girl crush Claire Danes slips into the role of Aggie Wiggs—a grief-stricken, reclusive author barely holding it together, that is of course, until a charming-but-suspect new neighbour (Matthew Rhys) pulls her into a tense, Hitchcock-y spiral of obsession. It took us all of about eight seconds to be gripped into this clever, twisty watch so we'd be making it your Monday night delight if we were you.

The Diplomat (Season 3)

This one has long been on our list of best political dramas to watch on Netflix. If you haven’t already seen seasons 1 and 2, it’s worth watching. And, if you’re all caught up, you’ll be pleased to know that Season 3 of The Diplomat is just as intense and gripping as previous instalments. We won’t give you any spoilers just in case, but think more of the power plays, complicated interpersonal relationships, and plenty of super urgent, closed-door conversations between political bigwigs with potentially world-altering consequences you know and love. You’re welcome.

Selling Sunset (Season 9)

We kinda hate that we love this show if we’re completely honest. At this point, we’re not sure what’s more ridiculous and over-the-top — the storylines or the outfits. But either way, we’re totally here for it.  If you haven’t already seen this reality gem, it’s about a group of real estate agents in Los Angeles. And, while the preposterously huge mansions are part of the appeal, they pale in comparison to the ambitious, ruthless, and larger-than-life characters that sell them. Think catfights, backstapping, rumour spreading, and oh so much more. It’s bonkers; we can’t stop watching it, and Season 9 drops on October 29. 

Victoria Beckham

If you haven’t already smashed this one the minute it came out (and we wouldn’t blame you if you did), this three-part documentary takes a deep dive into the rather varied life and career of Victoria Beckham. From when she burst onto the global pop scene in one of the most successful girl bands in history to her time as a footballer’s wife and media punchbag to her rise in the fashion ranks before finally cementing her place as a respected designer, it covers it all. It’s obviously told from Victoria’s perspective and is therefore carefully curated (don’t expect any tea on Brooklyn or any real info about decade-old affair rumours), but it also doesn’t shy away from her business’s financial issues and challenges along the way. So, if you’re fascinated by all things Beckham, this is pretty much an obligatory watch.

No One Saw Us Leave

A week ago we'd never heard of this show, and now it's literally the only thing we've talked about to anyone who will listen. This Mexican thriller limited series (based on a shocking true story) is trending right now all the way across the globe, with people already petitioning for a season two. When a completely devoted mum of two returns home to realise her husband has discovered a secret and flown the children far, far away, complete anarchy unfurls in the most gripping, breatheless, can't-stop-watching, have-to-cancel-plans type way. We suggest you start watching early as its going to be a late night. 

Black Rabbit

Watch on YouTube

What was meant to be a productive, outdoorsy weekend turned into a rather unproductive one (but fulfilling nonetheless) when Jason Bateman and Jude Law's new limited series drop, Black Rabbit, completely consumed my household. Dark and gritty with big Ozark vibes, we may have cancelled some plans just to get through the eight eps. You'll want to as well, trust me.

Famous Last Words: Dr. Jane Goodall

After the passing of beloved earth warrior Dr. Jane Goodall, we were glued to her incredibly intimate interview that she only allowed to be released after her death. Famous Last Words: Dr. Jane Goodall is (without giving anything away) a clear cut message to the world begging to protect our planet. Do yourself a favour and give it a watch to honour her incredible memory.

aka Charlie Sheen

If Charlie Sheen wasn’t a household name before, he was certainly a global phenomenon after his 2011 meltdown (#winning). And now, fourteen years later, this brand-new two-part documentary explores that turbulent time in the Two and a Half Men star’s life, along with everything that led up to it. Expect candid conversations with a now-sober Sheen, his friends, family, colleagues, and ex-partners about addiction, violence, sex, Hollywood, and more. It’s not particularly easy to watch, but it is morbidly fascinating. Both episodes are movie-length, so make sure you have plenty of time and mental bandwidth if you plan on smashing them in one go. Yes, perhaps a little sensationalised at times, but I surprisingly came out feeling quite fond of him.

Hostage

The British really do know how to put together a good political drama, don’t they? And with tense emotional drama rife with plot twists and surprising turns, Hostage certainly won’t disappoint fans of this genre. The story follows the British Prime Minister (played by the ever-brilliant Suranne Jones) as her husband is kidnapped on a Doctors Without Borders Mission in French Guiana. She also just so happens to be in the middle of an international summit with the French president, who is also being threatened by the kidnappers. As both women fight for literal and political survival, the plot thickens—and then some. This is an action-packed limited series with plenty of emotion and whodunit intrigue to boot. You can stream all five episodes now (and in one sitting if that’s your thing).

Fit for TV: The Reality of The Biggest Loser 

They say ignorance is bliss… so reality TV fiends may want to avoid this super concerning bare-all doco. Similar to the likes of Jerry Springer: Fights, Camera, Action, this 3-part series explores the frightening lack of care for contestants on the long-running noughties weight-loss show. From humiliation tactics and verbal abuse to horrific and dangerous health side effects, former contestants and medical advisors from the cast paint a pretty awful picture of what it was actually like to participate in the oh-so-popular show. It’s a fascinating watch… but be warned—it’s pretty confronting and may even put you off reality TV for good. Maybe.

Amy Bradley Is Missing

Calling all true crime, conspiracy, and general mystery lovers. This limited doco series has amateur sleuth fodder written all over it. Exploring the still-unsolved 1998 disappearance of a 23-year-old woman from a Caribbean cruise, it’s got shady characters, dubious motives, and just enough detective breadcrumbs to make you think you just might be able to crack the case. It’s also only three episodes long, so you can smash it in one sitting if you so choose.

Wednesday (Season 2, Part 1)

 
Have you been following Jenna Ortega's phenomenal fits on the press tour for Wednesday season two? You'll already be as amped as we are for the return of this deliciously dark supernatural drama from the glorious mind of Tim Burton. Sure, we've waited almost three years to come face to face with the Addams family once again, but we promise it's worth it. Settle in for four episodes (which make up the first drop on August 6) as Wednesday Addams willingly returns to Nevermore Academy or as she describes it "the scene of the crime" and confronts new and unexpected demons in a mission to save Enid. 

The Sandman (Season 2, Part 2)

We do love to binge an entire season as soon as it comes out…but we also have to admit that the old Netflix staggered roll-out tease does get us going too (the wait for Emily in Paris Season 4, part 2 was particularly excruciating). And, if you’ve been keeping up with The Sandman, you’ll be pleased to know that Season 2, Part 2 of this fantasy drama is available from July 24. If you haven’t already seen it… expect a full-blown comic book-based epic stuffed with gods, demons, and mythical creatures galore.

FUBAR (Season 2)

Action-packed, tongue-in-cheek funny, and sometimes oh-so-cheesy, FUBAR is everything you’d expect from a modern-day Arnold Schwarzenegger action comedy. If you missed Season 1, it’s essentially about a father and daughter spy team thrown together after they realise they’ve both been working for the CIA without the other’s knowledge. When complicated family and romantic relationships intertwine with dangerous — and somewhat ridiculous — missions, things get messy (hence the title, which we assume we don’t need to spell out for you!). Season 2 picks up right where Season 1 left off, with plenty more over-the-top spy shenanigans to keep you entertained.

Dept. Q

We originally tuned in to see if this was worthy of a spot on our Best Crime Shows on Netflix list (spoiler alert: it was). And, considering we ended up bingeing a full season in less than 36 hours, we figured it deserved a spot here, too! Following a troubled detective relegated to a new cold-case division after getting shot in the face (yes, you read that right - shot in the face!), it has all the elements you’d expect from a really good British/Scottish detective drama. It’s dark, gritty, suspenseful, and has plenty of cliffhangers, plot twists, and dry Scottish humour peppered throughout. So that’s your rainy weekend plans sorted.

Squid Game: Season 3

Squid Game Season 2 left us on the edge of our seats with its seriously abrupt ending, but closure is finally coming on 27 June. The final installment in this dystopian class satire looks set to provide a devastasting conclusion to the series, with Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) attempting to take down the game once and for all. Will Gi-hun save the surviving contestants? Will he take down the Front Man? Will he be forced to play more freaky versions of games from his childhood? It's not long until we find out. 

F1: The Academy

Ever wondered why on earth there are no female drivers racing in Formula 1? Spoiler alert—there’s no good reason. But, with Susie Wolff’s F1 Academy putting 15 young female drivers through their paces and a brand new behind-the-scenes Netflix doco (produced by Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine) giving them the global platform they deserve, this will soon be something of the past. So, if you’re having Drive to Survive withdrawals or just want to support the sisterhood, go ahead and binge all 7 episodes of F1: The Academy now! From rivalries and emotional backstories to fast cars and all the grit and determination you’d expect from future Formula 1 contenders, it’s got plenty to keep you entertained.

Sirens

This star-studded dark comedy is essentially White Lotus meets Big Little Lies (what’s not to love, eh?). Creepy, borderline-farcical, and oh-so-intriguing, it follows two sisters—one caught up in a bird-obsessed cult in a potentially murderous billionaire’s obnoxiously huge mansion and the other on a desperate mission to break her out. And yes, it’s exactly as bonkers as it sounds. All five episodes of this limited series are available to stream now. Featuring Milly Alcock (House of the Dragon), Meghann Fahy (White Lotus, The Bold Type), Glenn Howerton (It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia), plus Hollywood heavyweights, Julianne Moore and Kevin Bacon, you’re in for a bizarre and increasingly unexpected treat.

The Four Seasons

Our last few Netflix reccos have been a bit dark… so we’re lightening the mood with a star-studded comedy drama from the brain of Tina Fey, Tracey Wigfield, and Lang Fisher. Based on the 1981 film of the same name, the story follows three married couples who have been friends for decades and meet once a quarter for a group holiday. As one couple announces their divorce, the group dynamics, remaining couples, and subsequent trips are thrown into chaos, uncovering all sorts of emotions and general mid-life hilarity along the way. Starring Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Will Forte, and Colman Domingo, to name but a few, you can expect a fabulous mix of heartfelt drama and laugh-out-loud comedy in this 8-part series.

You (Season 5)

You know that serial killer you’re kind of disgusted at yourself for finding intoxicatingly attractive? Well, he’s back for the fifth and final season of You. It doesn’t quite have the same allure as the first couple of seasons, but it’s as rife with all the sexual tension, convoluted backstabbing, and scarcely believable plot lines you’ve grown to expect—nay, crave—from this crime drama. All episodes are already available to binge in full. Enjoy, then make a note to bring this issue up at your next therapy appointment.

The Residence

If you love a murder mystery filled with quirky characters, check out The Residence. In a nutshell, it’s a whodunnit saga centred around a murder during an extravagant state dinner at the White House. Uzo Aduba—who you’ll probably know as ‘Crazy Eyes’ from Orange is the New Black—leads a powerful ensemble cast, including Susan Kelechi Watson (This Is Us), Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), Jason Lee (My Name is Earl) and none other than Kylie flippin’ Minogue as her fabulous self. Funny, rife with plot twists, and full of self-deprecating nods to the show’s style and storytelling format, it’s a brilliantly entertaining mix of Knives Out and Only Murders in the Building. All eight episodes of The Residence are now available to stream in full.

Drive to Survive (Season 7)

In case you didn’t get the hint from the barrage of Insta content from those annoyingly lucky people who attended the Australian Grand Prix last weekend (SO not devastatingly jealous…), the 2025 Formula 1 season has officially kicked off. And, whether you need to catch up on last year’s drama or just want to refresh your memory, Season 7 of Drive to Survive is here to help. From Christian Horner’s scandal and McLaren’s epic comeback to Carlos Sainz’s wild contract negotiations and the painful twists and turns of Daniel Ricciardo’s career, the latest 10 episodes of the iconic series go behind the scenes on all the F1 madness.

Running Point

Watch on YouTube
Starring Kate Hudson and a heap of other ridiculously big names, Running Point follows a bunch of dysfunctional billionaires as they try to keep the family business—a super famous basketball team—afloat. With former party girl, Isla Gordon (Hudson) thrust into the role of CEO when her brother, Cam (played by Justin Theroux) goes to rehab, she has to navigate everything from diva players and constant sexism to corporate backstabbing and all sorts of family drama. Funny, warm, and very easy to watch, Running Point is the perfect binge-watch for a rainy day or a hangover (or both).

Apple Cider Vinegar

If you're anything like us, Belle Gibson was your first wellness blogger crush and boy did we eat up every word. What we came to realise later however, that this so-called 'self-healed' cancer survivor was actually not only swindling innocent people out of their dollars while spreading heinously dangerous medical misinformation. Apple Cider Vinegar has lit up *all* our group chats, and causing quite the stir since it's release so you'll wanna get your eyes around it pronto. 

Queer Eye (Season 9)

There are very few shows that give me more of a dopamine hit than Queer Eye. As a huge, long-term fan, I've had this premiere date in my Google Cal for longer than I'd like to admit. And while I was nervous about a new cast member (design guru Jeremiah Brent who may have now risen to the top of my list), this season in Las Vegas is undoubtably the most tear-jerking, heart-fluttering season by a mile. These humans bring so much goodness in a world full of chaos, and I can guarantee your day will be brighter after an ep (or six, no judgement.)

Black Doves

If you're seeking something a little more intense, may I introduce you to Keira Knightley's second best piece of work (Bend It Like Beckham is naturally the first, don't @ me). Playing a high-ranking seemingly perfect politician's wife, Knightley moonlights as an undercover agent for some shady players, and when the man she's lusts over is killed, she's thrown right into the drama. Each episode is completely gripping without getting overly complex or hard to follow as some of these British crime dramas do. It's been so popular in fact that they've already been renewed for season 2—and I'm already counting down the days.

Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story

From the creators of the true crime sensation "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," comes the latest installment, "Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story." This gripping series delves into the shocking true events surrounding the Menendez brothers, who infamously murdered their parents in their Beverly Hills home. The show explores the brothers' lavish lifestyle, the dark secrets of their family dynamics, and the high-profile trial that captivated the nation. With intense performances and a riveting storyline, this series is set to be a chilling exploration of crime, punishment, and the American justice system.

Selling Sunset (season 8)

The highly anticipated Season 8 of Selling Sunset has finally dropped, and it’s delivering all the drama we’ve been waiting for. With new agents joining the glamorous Oppenheim Group, the stakes have never been higher. Expect jaw-dropping real estate listings, fierce competition, and even bigger personality clashes as the agents navigate their high-stakes world of luxury penthouses and million-dollar commissions. This season promises more than just sleek homes—it’s packed with unexpected twists, feuds, and enough drama to keep you hooked from start to finish.

Ashley Madison: Sex, Lies And Scandal

This three-part docuseries explores the outrageous data hack of dating affair site Ashley Madison, where over 37 million people's personal details were leaked onto the dark web. Unsurprisingly causing absolute anarchy, delve into the lives of some of the couples and families affected, as well as checking out the big bosses whose biz was decimated over night. Short, snappy and salacious, there's nothing like a spy into the messed up minds of people that co-exist in our world.

Together: Treble Winners

It feels like every sports team is hopping on the Netflix doco bandwagon lately, but Together: Treble Winners is a short, snappy six part docuseries that's grabbed our attention this week. Following the tale of Mancester City's record-breaking 2022/2023 season, you're sure to jump on the Man City bandwagon as you fall in love with the players of this boisterous but charming team.

Young Royals: Season 3

In its third and final season, this highly anticipated next installment is premiering on March 11, promising more sexual tension and drama than ever before. The Swedish coming-of-age romantic drama series follows the privileged students of Hillerska boarding school trying to navigate their relationships, sexual identities and deepest urges. We suggest heading back to the start so you can really take it all in.

Somebody Feed Phil

Cancel your weekend plans—Season 7 of Somebody Feed Phil has just dropped, and we're ready to head on a global food tour of delightful proportions. Everybody Loves Raymond creator Phil Rosenthal's heading to Mumbai, Washington, D.C., Kyoto, Iceland, Dubai, Orlando, Taipei and Scotland bringing his appetite with him. A guaranteed dopamine fix for your eye balls.

Boy Swallows Universe

It's been a long time since we first caught word that Trent Dalton's famed Boy Swallows Universe was being transformed into a series for Netflix. While the wait has been long, Netflix has finally dropped the show and it's definitely been worth it.

An epic coming-of-age story set in 1980s Brisbane, Eli Bell is just trying to understand what it means to become a good man, but the adult world serves up many a brutal reality. This one also stars a few familiar faces including Simon Baker, Anthony LaPaglia, Travis Fimmel and Phoebe Tonkin. 

The Crown

Season six of The Crown is here so settle in. This controversial iteration of episodes is all about the relationship between Princess Diana and Dodi Fayed before a horrendous car crash. Prince William also tries to integrate back into life at Eton in the wake of his mother’s death as the monarchy has to ride the wave of public opinion. 

Sex Education

Following the closure of Moordale Secondary, Otis and Eric now face a new frontier, their first day at Cavendish Sixth Form College. Otis is nervous about setting up his new clinic, while Eric is praying they won’t be 'losers' again. But Cavendish is a culture shock for all the Moordale students.

With her new friends, outsiders Quinni and Darren, Amerie tries to repair her reputation, while navigating love, sex, and heartbreak. We are swooning hard. 

Love, Death & Robots

In our eyes, Love Death & Robots is quite possibly one of the best TV series around. If you’ve been watching since season one, you’ll know exactly why. If you’ve enver been into animation, LDR is the one show that will change your mind. This gem brings us a compilation of animated short stories, spanning across multiple genres such as, fantasy, fiction, horror and comedy. Each episode was produced with the intention of being easy to watch, but hard to forget and range from five to 17-minute stories. 

Russian Doll

At first they experience this as an ever-expanding, era-spanning, intergenerational adventure. 

Pieces Of Her

The last time we saw Toni Collete grace our screens in a Netflix series was when Unbelievable dropped and we all lost our collective marbles. It was great, no? So it goes without saying her next show, Pieces Of Her, is an unmissable piece of content you need in your life.

In a sleepy Georgia town, a random act of violence sets off an unexpected chain of events for 30-year-old Andy Oliver and her mother Laura. Desperate for answers, Andy embarks on a dangerous journey across America, drawing her towards the dark, hidden heart of her family.

All Of Us Are Dead

We hate to make parallels to Squid Game but let's just say All Of Us Are Dead is the new K-series that will fill that void. A group of students trapped in a high school find themselves in dire situations as they seek to be rescued from a zombie invasion of their school. It’s heinous, it’s messy and it’s damn amazing.

The Sinner

The Sinner season four is here and look, regardless of your season three thoughts—you’re going to watch it. As always, Detective Harry Ambrose finds himself investigating atrocious murder cases, this time, within the mysterious happenings of a small fishing town.

Cheer

It feels like an eternity since we first set our sights on the nationally-ranked Navarro College Bulldogs Cheer Team from Corsicana, Texas. The docuseries was an Emmy-winning breakout sensation and our non-athletic souls were privy to learning all things mat talk, the difference between spotters and flyers and every intricate detail of the cheer-lebrity world.

Now, season two is here (January 12) and this time there’s buzz around Navarro’s newfound stardom that threatens to alter the dynamic of the cheer team, COVID-19 upends the 2020 cheer season and a serious criminal accusation is levied at one of the teammates. Against that dramatic backdrop, the new nine-episode season expands to showcase Navarro’s fiercest rival as well—Trinity Valley Community College.
