3 best new to Netflix shows you should binge-watch this weekend (May 29-31)
Add these new releases to your Netflix watchlist
Like all the best streaming services, Netflix is constantly dropping fresh releases for us to keep up with. More choice is a great thing, but it can mean keeping up with all the latest and greatest releases is a tall order — and that's where we come in.
Every week, we look back at what's come to the platform and pick out just a handful of watchlist-worthy releases that we think you should have on your radar. Right now, that includes a new sci-fi drama with Alfred Molina plus two more shows that have just returned for their second seasons.
So, if your weekend plans involve little more than vegging out on the sofa, here are the three shows that I think you should be watching this weekend.
Best new-to-Netflix shows to binge-watch this weekend
'A Good Girl's Guide to Murder' season 2
Teen detective Pip Fitz-Amobi (Emma Myers) is back on Netflix to crack a new case in "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder" season 2. After getting to the bottom of what happened to Andie Bell, Pip's world has been transformed (but not necessarily for the better). She's determined to fix things and to stay away from any more cases... but when a key witness in May Hastings' case disappears, Pip finds herself in a race against time to find Jamie Reynolds (Eden H. Davies).
P.S: Readers in the U.K. and Ireland can find the new season on BBC iPlayer instead.

'The Boroughs'
If you've not yet gotten around to streaming "The Boroughs," it's definitely worth diving in this weekend: TG's Alix Blackburn labelled it "a bingeable, emotionally resonant, and visually cinematic mystery" in her 4.5/5-star review.

The series whisks us off to a picture-perfect retirement community situated in the New Mexico desert... one that harbors a dark secret. And, after a monstrous encounter, new arrival Sam Cooper (Alfred Molina) joins forces with a group of neighborhood misfits and, together, they try to unravel the truth of The Boroughs before it's too late.

'The Four Seasons' season 2
If you loved going along for the ride with the cast of "The Four Seasons" last year, you're in luck: Kate (Tina Fey), Jack (Will Forte), Anne (Kerri Kenney-Silver), Danny (Colman Domingo), Claude (Marco Calvani) and Ginny (Erika Henningsen) are back for more vacations.
Coming off the back of a hard year, the group is continuing their tradition and heading off on their travels together again (this time with a baby in tow), journeying from the familiar comforts of the Jersey Shore and upstate New York across to Italy. With warmth and wit, personal blind spots surface for the group as they each grieve their late friend and embark on new adventures.
