Everything Coming to Netflix This Weekend (March 15)

Get ready for ‘Irish Wish,’ ‘Chicken Nugget,’ and three titles from ESPN Films’ 30 for 30′ film series.

Netflix’s streaming library is growing this weekend. Along with new additions from this week’s rollout, including titles such as Girls5eva Season 3 and Young Royals Season 3, Netflix subscribers settling in for a relaxing weekend will have eight new titles to enjoy as Netflix checks even more TV series, films, and Netflix originals off of its March 2024 content list.

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.

The unlikely squad made it to the national championship game against No. 1 Houston, aka Phi Slama Jama, a team featuring future NBA Top 50 all-time players Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler. NC State was one of the biggest underdogs ever in the final game, one that went down as possibly the best college basketball game in history-ending with one of the most well-known plays of all time. Told through the eyes of senior captain Dereck Whittenburg, the film takes a poignant look at Jim Valvano and his remarkable impact.”
