All of the streaming services available to us at our fingertips make it easy to find great television shows and movies to watch whenever we’re feeling bored. In fact, it seems almost impossible that any of us would ever run out of things to watch – there are so many options out there! But even with all of the great TV and the interesting movies, it’s actually totally possible to realize that we’ve already seen everything we’ve wanted to see. Luckily, Netflix adds new programming every few weeks to keep us all invested.
The fall season is always a big time for new television shows, and that even holds true for Netflix. The popular streaming service will be introducing a variety of new shows this fall, as well as new seasons of returning shows. And, on top of their excellent original programming, Netflix will also be adding new shows and movies that you’ve probably been meaning to watch. And now you can!
Here’s everything coming to Netflix this fall – get the popcorn ready!

Another movie hitting Netflix in early fall is My Sister’s Keeper. If you haven’t seen it yet, prepare for a very emotional journey. Based on the novel of the same name by Jodi Picoult, My Sister’s Keeper, this is the story of Anna, who was born to be a marrow donor for her very ill sister. The decision has led to a lot of tension in the family. As you can imagine, it’s a huge tearjerker, but still worth watching.

This Spanish language teen soap opera is full of drama, intrigue, murder, romance, and more, and you definitely won’t be able to resist it. Season two will address the jaw-dropping finale of season one, and hopefully answer some big questions – and that’s really all we can say without giving away any spoilers. The show has been a big hit on Netflix – it was renewed for a second season almost immediately after the first season dropped. If you haven’t seen season one yet, now is the time to watch it. It’s only eight episodes, so you’ve got this!

This miniseries hits Netflix in early September. Starring Sacha Baron Cohen, it’s a true story based on the life of Israel’s top Mossad spy in Syria, Eli Cohen. The limited series takes place in the 1960s. It was created by Gideon Raff, whose Israeli drama Prisoners of War inspired the show Homeland, so this is a series you’re not going to want to miss out on.

Looking to be inspired by a spiritual journey? Watch Eat Pray Love (maybe again) when it hits Netflix. Based on the memoir of the same name by Elizabeth Gilbert, the film stars Julia Roberts and is truly a motivational story. It’s about a woman who left behind her career and her home after going through a divorce to travel alone through Italy, India, and Bali, and who discovers herself along the way.

Netflix’s version of Lost begins in early fall. The I-Land is a science fiction thriller starring Kate Bosworth and Alex Pettyfer, and it’s the story of 10 people who wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of who they are or how they got there.

Fans of Chelsea Handler will definitely want to tune into this documentary, where Handler takes a good look at how white privilege really impacts America. She also acknowledges her own white privilege and explores how it has affected her own life and career. It’s sure to be interesting and eye-opening… and probably amusing in a way as well, since this is Handler we’re talking about.

If you’re looking for a funny show to give you all of the laughs, try watching I’m Sorry.

If you’ve never seen any of the Between Two Ferns videos online, do yourself a favor and Google them. The videos feature Zach Galifianakis as something of a disgruntled talk show host. He interviews celebrities just to ask them the most awkward, ridiculous questions, and the end result is hilarious. Obviously, it’s all staged, but it’s just fun to watch regardless. On September 20, we’ll get a chance to see how these short videos play out in movie form.

Get your fix of the Hormone Monster again soon!

Breaking Bad fans, our time has come. On October 11, the movie based on the television series is coming to Netflix. It was also directed by Vince Gilligan, and stars Aaron Paul. At the risk of spoiling Breaking Bad for those who haven’t watched it yet (what have you been doing?!), the movie is about Jesse Pinkman’s life after the series. And it looks very good.

This is another highly anticipated Netflix original series. It stars Paul Rudd as Miles, a struggling man who decides to try out a new spa treatment that is supposed to make him a better person. But it turns out they meant that literally: he gets replaced by a better version of himself, and has to deal with the consequences. It is, as you would expect, a comedy.

Another show to watch for lots of laughs in October is The Kominsky Method. The comedy, which stars Alan Arkin and Micheal Douglas, is about two older men navigating life in Los Angeles, with all the ups and downs that come with being, well, older men.

While the exact release date for this spooky show hasn’t been released just yet, we do know it will be some time in October – one would assume before Halloween or maybe even on Halloween, since that would be pretty perfectly timed.

It feels like it’s been forever since new episodes of The Crown were released, but we’re finally getting our fix. The third season will be out on November 17, and since it’s further along in time, it features an entirely new cast.

Another sci-fi show will be returning this fall as well, although we don’t know the exact release date just yet. Lost In Space is about the Robinson family, who live 30 years in the future and are picked to start a new life in a space colony.

We still don’t have a release date on the sixth season of Bojack Horseman, but it’s expected to return in either September or October. The regular cast will be there, as well as plenty of celebrity guest stars, although, again, we don’t know who they are just yet. The details aren’t all clear, but this hilariously weird cartoon is worth waiting for.

The Full House spinoff is back for another season this fall, although we aren’t quite sure about the exact date yet. And yes, it’s true that it doesn’t seem like Lori Loughlin will return for her role as Aunt Becky after the college scandal she’s been going through in real life. This will also be the final season, so stay tuned to see how the show wraps everything up.

Another show we don’t know the exact release date of is Insatiable. Many were surprised the show got a second season after the controversy that followed the first, but it did! The show is about an overweight girl who loses weight and gets popular, and a petition was actually signed trying to get it shut down. It’s back, though, and it’s interesting to see where the show will take viewers this season.
