Be sure to check out our other streaming guides for Prime Video, Paramount+, and HBO Max as well. Let's get into the three best new shows on Netflix right now. FROM FROM is one of the best new shows to binge-watch on Netflix this weekend. The first three seasons of the beloved sci-fi horror series were recently released on Netflix at the start of this week for the first time ever. Since then, FROM has enjoyed instant streaming success on the platform, shooting up to the #3 spot in the U.S. at the time of writing. However, FROM season 4 is not available to stream on Netflix, so viewers looking to binge the four currently released seasons can only do so on MGM+. FROM earned a near-perfect 96% Rotten Tomatoes score for its first four seasons and is widely considered to be one of the best modern horror series of the 2020s. The series follows Harold Perrineau as Boyd Stevens, a respected local sheriff in a small town where supernatural occurrences happen at night that terrorize the community. With FROM season 5 set to release in 2027, there's hardly any better new horror series on Netflix to invest in this weekend. Lupin Lupin Part 4 has finally arrived on Netflix as of Friday, October 23, 2026, three years after its popular third season was released. The stylish French heist thriller dropped its first three seasons between 2021 and 2023 before taking a hiatus, finally returning with an exciting 8-part new season. Lupin is another top series on Netflix with a near-perfect 98% Rotten Tomatoes score and is perfect for fans of thrilling and clever heist projects like the Ocean's franchise. Lupin stars Omar Sy as the charismatic protagonist Assane Diop, a thief who was inspired as a young boy by the book series Arsène Lupin. Assane uses a level of sophistication and refinement to sneak his way into the elite society of Paris, all so he can target the upper class and plan high-stakes robberies. A bit of a Robin Hood-like figure, Assane initially seeks revenge for his father against a wealthy family. If you enjoy crime thrillers with action and heist elements, Lupin is perfect for you this weekend.
