Netflix's ever-expanding streaming content catalog is about to get a little bit larger. This weekend, the streaming giant is expanding its streaming offerings by a total of seven new additions, which subscribers will be able to find in the streaming library beginning on Friday, Nov. 20. The new addition, six of which are Netflix originals, will continue being added through Sunday, Nov. 22, kicking off a slate of new content set to be added next week.

Among this weekend's new additions, subscribers will be able to treat themselves to the adorable tale of an alien hoping to save Earth with the Christmas spirit, as well as one series that will take taste buds on a trip across China. This weekend will also see the debut of Dolly Parton's Christmas on the Square, which will join the streamer's holiday lineup. Titles are continuing to be rolled out on that lineup throughout November and into December as a way to help subscribers get into the spirit of the holidays.
