Maybe you\u2019re ducking a seasonal storm, maybe you\u2019re getting that Thanksgiving prep going or maybe you just want to kick your feet up for a few hours. Whatever the case, you\u2019re on the hunt for something to binge-watch on Netflix<\/a> this weekend, and we\u2019ve got some recommendations. <\/p>\n

This week\u2019s lineup of bingeable shows includes a new thriller that\u2019s topping the Netflix charts, a hidden gem featuring \u201cWicked\u201d star Jonathan Bailey and a beloved sitcom you might want to revisit before it leaves Netflix in December. <\/p>\n

\u201cThe Beast in Me\u201d (2025)<\/p>\n

\"\u201cThe\u201cThe Beast in Me\u201d (Netflix)<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the No. 1 show on Netflix for a reason! Netflix\u2019s new psychological thriller series stars Claire Danes as an acerbic, reclusive writer who\u2019s removed herself from society, a shell of herself after the death of her son. She\u2019s also no longer able to write \u2026 until a man accused of murdering his wife moves next door and sparks her imagination. Danes and co-star Matthew Rhys<\/a> (who is especially committed and compelling) establish a fabulously crunchy, sticky, impossible-to-put-down dynamic between their two characters from the get-go, and the series wisely wastes no time putting its two prickly and unpredictable leads together in unexpected ways. A limited series mystery is always a go-to pick for a weekend binge-watch and \u201cThe Beast in Me\u201d is one of the best of the genre this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cCrashing\u201d (2016)<\/p>\n

If the arrival of \u201cWicked: For Good\u201d has you in the mood for more Jonathan Bailey, there\u2019s a lesser-known U.K. comedy series waiting for you on Netflix. Created by and starring Phoebe Waller-Bridge, \u201cCrashing\u201d is like a rowdier, hard-partying sister series to her TV masterwork, \u201cFleabag,\u201d which premiered just a few months later in 2016. The series centers on six twenty-somethings who take advantage of cheap rent and cohabitate in a disused hospital, quickly becoming a messy tangle of friendships, frenemies, sexual tension and romance. A bit debauched but soulful and witty, \u201cCrashing\u201d is a perfect weekend binge since it\u2019s just six episodes \u2014 just be warned, they go too fast and you\u2019ll be sad when it\u2019s over.<\/p>\n

Maybe you\u2019re not looking for a quick binge, but something with 100+ episodes you can really sink your teeth into. Well, if you\u2019re a \u201cHow I Met Your Mother\u201d person or if you\u2019ve been meaning to watch it, now\u2019s your chance: the nine-season sitcom is leaving Netflix again in December. The series infamously has its highs and lows<\/a>, but it\u2019s one of the great comfort TV sitcoms of the 2000s, with plenty of laugh-out-loud episodes along the way. You won\u2019t be able to binge it all in one weekend, but if you want to watch it again before it leaves on Dec. 4, you\u2019ll probably want to get started about now. <\/p>\n
