Five new Netflix original series and films debut this weekend.

By Allison Schonter

The weekend is finally here, bringing with it plenty of new streaming options at Netflix. Following a week of additions like CoComelon Season 9, Cats, and the new Netflix Comedy title Rachid Badouri: Les fleurs du tapis, six new titles are about to hit the Netflix streaming library. This weekend, subscribers will be able to press play on everything from the final episodes of Love Is Blind: Sweden to a new season of Love on the Spectrum, with other additions including The Real World Season 16 and Sixty Minutes.

Netflix offers three subscription plans – the basic with ads plan ($7 per month), the standard plan ($15.50 per month), and the premium plan ($20 per month). The latter three plans give subscribers access to the complete Netflix streaming library, but content availability is slightly limited on the Netflix with ads plan. 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.
