Three of the top new shows to binge-watch on Netflix<\/a> this weekend, February 27\u2013March 1, 2026, are all brand-new trending series across various genres. Our top pick has already surged to Netflix’s #1 trending worldwide spot just hours after its release.<\/p>\n

Between a new season of a long-running sports docuseries, a new 9-part comedy series out of Germany, and the 4-episode drop of a beloved romance series, these three new Netflix shows are some of the very best to binge-watch this last weekend of February 2026.<\/p>\n

Formula 1: Drive To Survive<\/p>\n

A new season of Formula 1: Drive To Survive was just added to Netflix on Friday, February 27. Formula 1: Drive To Survive season 8 features six F1 rookies and a seven-time World Champion in London’s O2 Arena. All 8 new episodes are available to binge right now.<\/p>\n

Since it originally came out in 2019, Formula 1: Drive To Survive has been one of Netflix’s more popular and acclaimed original sports docuseries in its history. Even if you don’t follow motorsports, this series is still compelling due to its fast pace and high real-world stakes.<\/p>\n

Crap Happens<\/p>\n

Crap Happens is a new German comedy series that just came out on Netflix on Thursday, February 26. If you’re a fan of Netflix original comedy shows like Free Bert<\/a>, you should give Crap Happens a shot this weekend. It consists of 9 episodes, all roughly 35 minutes each.<\/p>\n

Crap Happens follows a man named Toni who returns to his hometown of Schitten for a funeral, only to discover that he has left more than just his dull life behind there, including a teenage son he never knew he had. For a mix of drama and comedy, Crap Happens is a safe bet.<\/p>\n

Bridgerton<\/p>\n

Following the 4-episode drop of Bridgerton season 4, part 2<\/a> on Thursday, the romance series has once again become an instant overnight streaming sensation, ranking #1 worldwide and in the U.S. on Netflix’s streaming charts.<\/p>\n

After premiering in 2020, Bridgerton season 4, part 2, follows the Cinderella-like love story between Benedict Bridgerton and Sophie Baek. The final half of the season has already received strong reviews from audiences on IMDb<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you’re all caught up on the first half of Bridgerton season 4, which was released last month, then now’s the time to dive back into one of Netflix’s biggest streaming hits. Don’t miss the one Netflix series that everyone will be watching this weekend to close out February 2026.<\/p>\n
