Netflix’s streaming library will continue to grow this weekend! After spending the first several weeks of March stocking its content catalog with new additions from its March 2022 content lineup, the streamer beginning on Friday will roll out the first of a total of 14 new titles, 13 of which are Netflix original series, films, and documentaries.

Perhaps the biggest addition coming this week is Human Resources. The new series is the streamer’s spinoff of the hit animated adult comedy Big Mouth. It will be joined by the premiere of the streamer’s latest baking competition, Is It Cake?, which will undoubtedly spark plenty of social media commentary as it is inspired by the social media craze of cakes that look nearly identical to everyday objects. Other additions headed to the library this weekend include Season 2 of Animal, Eternally Confused and Eager for Love, and Without Saying Goodbye.

Netflix offers three subscription plans – the basic plan $10 per month), the standard plan ($15.50 per month), and the premium plan ($20 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.

‘Human Resources’

Netflix’s highly-anticipated Big Mouth spinoff finally drops in the streaming library on Friday, March 18. Titled Human Resources, the new animated series focuses on the world of the hormone monsters, who are sent to coach adolescents through the tumultuous seas of puberty. The new series boasts an all-star voice cast including Nick Kroll, Maya Rudolph and David Thewlis reprising their Big Mouth roles as well as Aidy Bryant, Brandon Kyle Goodman, Keke Palmer, and Randall Park.

‘Is It Cake?’

The social media trend of hyper-realistic cakes has arrived at Netflix. On Friday, the streamer is set to debut its new baking competition series Is It Cake? The new show will find skilled cake artists tasked with creating mouthwatering replicas of everyday objects – from handbags to sewing machines – in what the streamer has described as “in a mind-bending baking contest inspired by a popular meme.” The show is hosted by Mikey Day.

‘Top Boy’: Season 2

After a long wait, Netflix’s Top Boy revival is set to return this weekend for its second outing. Created and written by Ronan Bennett and executive produced by Drake, the series is set in the housing estates of east London, where there is tension between the drug gangs that operate almost openly and those who strive to live honest lives against the odds in the crime-riddled area. The series stars Ashley Walters, Kano, Michael Ward, Little Simz, Jasmine Jobson, Hope Ikpoku Jr., Jolade Obasola, Kadeem Ramsay, Saffron Hocking, and Araloyin Oshunremi return in Season 2, which finds Dushane seeking to expand his empire beyond the streets, all while a huge investment, partners abroad, and family crises spell more problems. Season 2 is set to premiere on Friday.
