Two Paul Rudds. Breaking Bad. Big Mouth. Peaky Blinders. Yes, following a kinda-quiet September, Netflix is bringing the thunder in October. This upcoming batch of shows seems engineered to make you keep your schedule.
That's not all, though, as families get the second set of the Carmen Sandiego animated series. And comedy lovers get a new standup special from Jenny Slate.
Highlights coming from outside of Netflix's library include both Bad Boys films (ready for Bad Boys For Life yet?) and both Charlie's Angels movies (yes, another one of those is coming). Are you ready to go full throttle into October? Here are our top picks for what to watch on Netflix.
Looking to the future: A new comedy special starring Jenny Slate (Obvious Child) debuts on Oct. 22. Titled Stage Fright, the show includes footage from her childhood. One of the most exciting (and kinda ludicrous) shows is Living With Yourself (Coming Oct. 18), which offers two Rudds for the price of one, as Miles (Rudd) discovers he may have been cloned after visiting a spa.
Check out our best family movies on Netflix if you're looking for films to watch with your family.
Note: We’ve bolded the shows and movies that we’re most excited to stream. Plus, we're also including the movies and shows Netflix has still yet to debut and remove this month, and bolding those titles we're trying to remember to watch before they leave.
