Everything Coming to Netflix This Weekend (December 17)

By Allison Schonter

A new weekend is here, and so is a new slate of Netflix titles. After spending the past week stocking the streaming library with titles like Elite Short Stories: Phillipe Caye Felipe and Selling Tampa, the Selling Sunset spinoff, the streaming giant is treating subscribers to even more new additions this weekend. In total, five new titles are headed to the streaming library between Friday, Dec. 17 and Sunday, Dec. 19, including four Netflix originals.

This weekend will mark the end for one beloved Netflix Family title. On Friday, Fast & Furious Spy Racers, Netflix's original animated series based on the Fast & Furious film series, debuts its sixth and final season, titled Homecoming. This weekend will also bring with it the highly-anticipated second season of The Witcher, the streamer's adaptation of author Andrzej Sapkowski's fantasy series of the same name. Of course, given that December is the holiday season, Netflix also has a long list of holiday-perfect titles that subscribers can access. Netflix's complete 2021 Here for the Holidays streaming lineup, which has several more titles set to debut later this month, can be found by clicking here.

Netflix offers three subscription plans – the basic plan ($8.99 per month), the standard plan ($13.99 per month), and the premium plan ($17.99 per month). The streamer also recently debuted a "Netflix Free Section," allowing non-subscribers to watch a selection of the streamer's most beloved originals at no cost. Keep scrolling to see everything coming to Netflix this weekend, and don't forget to check out all of the titles that will be leaving before the end of the month.

'Fast & Furious Spy Racers: Season 6: Homecoming'

The Spy Racers are racing back onto Netflix on Friday, Dec. 17 for the sixth and final season of Fast & Furious Spy Racers. Based on the Fast & Furious film series by Gary Scott Thompson, the Netflix original follows Tony Toretto, Dominic Toretto's son, who, along with his friends, is recruited by a government agency together to infiltrate an elite racing league serving as a front for a crime organization called SH1FT3R. In Season 6, Homecoming, the Spy Racers will be racing around the world – from the Alps to the Arctic and back home to LA – as they battle their toughest enemy ever.
