Best shows on Netflix this weekend
Happy first weekend of November, Netflix Life readers. Fall is here, and it’s time to snuggle with your favorite blanket and some great Netflix shows.
Netflix has a lot of new releases coming in November 2021. This week alone, there have been many new releases, including The Harder They Fall, Love Hard, Narcos: Mexico season 3, and The Club.
Saturday, Nov. 6, marks the annual Stranger Things Day celebrations. We shared the Stranger Things Day 2021 schedule and everything you need to know.
Stranger Things
In honor of Stranger Things Day, we had to include the series in our shows for the weekend list. Perhaps you have already watched and maybe even re-watched numerous times, but this series is so just dang good, it’s worth multiple re-watches.
Fans are patiently waiting for the fourth and final season of the series that will be released in 2022. Stranger Things is the perfect meld of 80s nostalgia, coming of age and sci-fi. Created by the Duffer brothers, this series is set in the 80s, and the brothers have drawn inspiration from other great creators from the 80s, including Steven Spielberg, John Carpenter and Stephen King.
If you don’t know, the series follows a group of kids living in Hawkins, Indiana. After the mysterious disappearance of one of their friends, they meet a girl named Eleven who possesses psychokinetic abilities who is being pursued by a bunch of creepy scientists who want to use her powers. This is just the beginning of the story. From there, things go from bad to worse as more people become involved and stranger things begin to occur in the town of Hawkins.
