The best new Netflix shows to watch first
Black Doves Season 2 — November 5
The spy thriller returns with Keira Knightley as Helen and Ben Whishaw as Sam. The second season follows the fallout from an attack on Reed and sends the characters into another dangerous search for answers. It is one of the clearest choices for viewers looking for a returning scripted drama with a thriller hook.
North of North Season 2 — November 5
The Canadian comedy returns with Siaja, played by Anna Lambe, continuing to build a new life in the close-knit Arctic community of Ice Cove. The series is a good pick if you want something lighter than Black Doves but still character-driven.
The Devil’s Plan Season 3 — November 10
Netflix’s Korean strategy competition brings together 16 contestants for another round of puzzles, alliances, and social maneuvering. This is the November release to prioritize if you prefer reality shows built around deduction and game strategy rather than dating or performance.
The Hunting Wives Season 2 — November 26
The drama returns with Sophie and Margo on uneasy terms. Netflix says old secrets and new enemies eventually force them back together, setting up another round of dangerous games. Because the season arrives late in the month, it is the main returning-series release to save for the Thanksgiving weekend.
New Netflix movies and documentaries in November
A Dog’s Perfect Christmas arrived on November 4 as an early holiday option. The story follows a teenager, her grandfather, and a basset hound as a family tries to hold together during a difficult Christmas season.
For documentary viewers, Taken: Natalee Holloway examines the long search following Natalee Holloway’s 2005 disappearance in Aruba, while Ninho: Fame Ain’t Worth It follows the French rap star as he considers whether a decade of success and sacrifice is worth continuing.
Netflix’s fall movie schedule also identifies several November films to watch for, including Possible Love on November 6 and Heartland on November 13. Possible Love is a relationship drama from director Lee Chang-dong, while Heartland stars Jessica Chastain as a former country music star investigating her niece’s disappearance.
What is leaving Netflix in November 2026?
Netflix’s U.S. departure list includes several recognizable movies and series. The dates below come from Netflix’s official November 2026 leaving-soon schedule:
- November 5: The End of the F***ing World, Seasons 1–2
- November 6: Safe Haven
- November 9: The Lost City
- November 14: The Big C, Seasons 1–4
- November 15: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Shallows
- November 19: Saw X and True Romance
- November 20: The Resident, Seasons 1–6
- November 25: Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life
If you have been meaning to watch The Lost City, The Resident, or the Gilmore Girls revival, those are the titles with the clearest deadlines. Netflix can remove a title at different times depending on the country, so Canadian subscribers should treat the U.S. dates as a guide rather than a Canada-wide guarantee.
What is available now and what is still upcoming?
As of November 4, the November releases dated November 1, November 3, and November 4 are the titles to look for immediately. The next major release day is November 5, when Black Doves Season 2 and North of North Season 2 arrive. Most of the month’s biggest returning shows are still ahead, including The Devil’s Plan on November 10 and The Hunting Wives on November 26.
Netflix’s schedule can change, and the catalog shown in the app may not match the public U.S. list in Canada. For the most accurate result, search for the exact title in your local Netflix app before planning a watchlist around a release date.
