Another week of streaming has come and gone, and while the buzz is all about the return of a fantasy epic, maybe you're not in the mood for that. If you're looking for something different to watch on Netflix this weekend, we've got you covered. Here are three shows that will keep you entertained from Friday night to Sunday evening.
The Body: A Chilling New Thriller
First up is The Body, a brand-new series that's already making waves. With a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, this show is a must-watch. It follows a group of Catholic school girls, including Anya (Kristina Bogic) and Elise (Sara Boustany), who begin experiencing prophetic visions that throw their town into chaos. Critics are comparing it to Stephen King's Carrie, and Collider's review calls it "like nothing else on streaming right now." The cast also includes Sofia Wylie, Geena Meszaros, Shirley Chen, and Gabby Windey. If you want to be part of the conversation, don't miss this one.
The Neighborhood: A Feel-Good Sitcom
If you're in the mood for something lighter, The Neighborhood is now streaming on Netflix. This CBS sitcom, which wrapped up its eight-season run earlier this year, stars Max Greenfield and Cedric the Entertainer as unlikely neighbors in Los Angeles. It's a heartwarming comedy about friendship and community, with 155 episodes to keep you busy all weekend. It even earned an Emmy nomination for editing. Perfect for a cozy, laugh-filled binge.
Below: A Hidden Gem
Finally, check out Below, a series that might have slipped under your radar when it premiered last month. Created by Jesse McKeown of The Umbrella Academy fame, it stars Josh Hartnett as a fisherman who must protect his town from a mysterious sea creature. With an 87% on Rotten Tomatoes, it's a gripping watch that's perfect for fans of suspense and drama.
