Club Benefits
Looking to avoid the dreaded Netflix scroll and just get right down to streaming something new this week? Like all the best streaming services, Netflix is constantly adding new shows and movies to its platform, and while all that extra choice is great, it can also make settling on your next watch a real headache.
If you can't bear to spend ages looking through categories and genres, you can turn to the Netflix top 10 lists for some streaming guidance, but you can't always guarantee what's trending is actually worth watching — and that's where I come in.
Best shows in the Netflix top 10
'Bridgerton'
Netflix's beloved period romance (one of the streamer's most-watched shows of all time) is back at the top spot after "Bridgerton" season 4 part 2 arrived at the end of February. That's no surprise; millions of viewers around the world have watched the Bridgerton siblings fall in love, and that trend's surely continued with this fourth chapter.
"Bridgerton" season 4 focuses on Violet Bridgerton's bohemian second son, Benedict (Luke Thompson). Anthony and Colin might now be happily married, but Benedict doesn't seem ready to settle down just yet — though a chance encounter with a Lady in Silver (whom we know to be Sophie Baek, played by Yerin Ha) at a masquerade ball leaves him awestruck and determined to uncover her identity. If you've been holding off to binge the whole season, now's the time to dive in.

'Formula 1: Drive to Survive'
Netflix's hit sports docuseries is back with "Formula 1: Drive to Survive" season 8, taking us behind the scenes and offering F1 fans "unprecedented" access to the drivers and teams once again throughout the previous F1 season.
The award-winning series's eighth season zooms in on the 2025 FIA F1 World Championship, the 75th year of the motorsport. Delving into the on and off-track moments that shaped the year of rivalries, driver changes, and management shifts, the new series promises to be another unmissable chapter for Formula 1 fans. And, for the first time, you can also find the latest series on Apple TV (in the US only), too.

'The Night Agent'
Netflix subscribers are clearly loving seeing Peter Sutherland (Gabriel Basso) back in action, as "The Night Agent" continues to be one of the streamer's top watches nearly two weeks after it returned for "The Night Agent" season 3.
Off the back of the explosive second season, this third chapter sees Sutherland being called in to track down a young Treasury Agent who has fled to Istanbul with sensitive government intel after killing his boss. That mission kicks off a chain of events that sees Netflix's favorite agent investigating a dark money network (and dodging its paid assassins) and puts him on a collision course with a relentless journalist. TG's Malcolm McMillan says it's another worthy 10-hour binge: "Much like its fellow spy or crime thrillers — "Cross," "Reacher" or even "Slow Horses" — this show finds a formula that works and sticks with it," he wrote.
