If you're still working your way through hit titles like The Umbrella Academy and Emily in Paris, you'd better catch up quickly so you don't miss out on the excellent titles coming to Netflix this week. And trust — there are a lot of new releases this week!
We're heading back to the most hilarious town in America on Aug. 22 with the return of That '90s Show. The new generation of Point Place teens are once again getting up to no good in part 3, and that's quite the theme on Netflix this week. The coming-of-age comedy film Incoming also makes its premiere this week for an extra dose of raunchy laughs.

That '90s Show part 3
Hello, Wisconsin! That '90s Show returns with the second half of its second season, officially known by Netflix as part 3. When we last left Leia and her friends in part 2, their party took a turn for the worst when crashers literally crashed into the Forman kitchen. Red and Kitty aren't going to appreciate the massive hole in their house when they return from Paris!
Part 3 will track the aftermath of Leia's disastrous party, while also furthering her quest to losing her virginity with Jay. Meanwhile, Nate's reveal that he wants Nikki back will get a bit messy when she possibly moves on with someone new and he hits it off with Jay's older sister Betsy. Make sure not to miss all eight episodes of That '90s Show part 3 when the series returns on Aug. 22

Incoming
In the mood for a movie? Fresh off the release the new original action coming The Union, Netflix follows up last week's A-lister team-up with the coming-of-age comedy Incoming. It's sort of Superbad for the new generation, as the R-rated movie centers on a group of high school freshmen looking to conquer their very first party as high schoolers. Incoming stars Mason Thames, Raphael Alejandro, Kaitlin Olson, and Bobby Cannavale. Add it to your watch list beginning this Friday!
UnREAL complete series
As if 13 shows from AMC weren't enough for your watch list this week, Netflix also added all four seasons of Lifetime's reality television satire UnREAL. The drama series followed the exploits and scandals that befall the set of a dating competition series a la The Bachelor. Shiri Appleby and Constance Zimmer star in the juicy series with an ending that's as shocking as the rest of its plot twists. Whether for the first time or for another rewatch, don't miss UnREAL while it's on Netflix.
