After stocking a long list of new titles this week, Netflix is preparing to refresh its streaming library with even more new content. This weekend, the streaming giant is poised to add a total of 12 new titles to its content catalogue, expanding on its already impressive list of additions that have arrived this month.
Perhaps the biggest title headed to the library this week is Season 3 of You, the Lifetime-turned-Netflix series that follows Joe Goldberg, who will find himself struggling to settle into a suburban life with Love and their child. The series has been a major hit for the streamer and originally made its way to Netflix in December 2018 following its September 2018 premiere on Lifetime. Other incoming titles this weekend include South Korean drama My Name, Season 4 of little things, a new batch of Cocomelon episodes, and another popular Netflix Family title. For those hoping for spookier titles to help kick off Halloween celebrations, check out the streamer’s Netflix and Chills lineup here.

‘My Name’
After finding major success with its original series Squid Game, another Netflix original South Korean drama is headed to the streaming library this week! On Friday, Oct. 15, the streamer is adding My Name, a crime-thriller that revolves around Jiwoo, a woman who joins a drug cartel and becomes a mole in the police force to avenge her father’s death. Directed by Kim Jin-min, My Name stars Han So-hee, Park Hee-soon, and Ahn Bo-hyun.
‘Sharkdog’s Fintastic Halloween’
Just a month after stocking a new title in its Netflix Family library to great success, Sharkdog and his friends are returning for more wild adventures in the special Sharkdog’s Fintastic Halloween. Set for a Friday premeire, the title is a spinoff of Sharkdog, an animated series that follows 10-year-old Max and his best friend Sharkdog, who is half shark and half dog, as they take on silly and messy adventures. In Sharkdog’s Fintastic Halloween, Sharkdog finds himself needing to save trick-or-treating from a slimy sea monster after he hears the spooky legend of the “Fearsome Fog.”
‘You: Season 3’
Nearly two years after its second season premiered, Netflix’s hit thriller You is returning to the streaming platform for its third outing. Set for a Friday premiere, the third season will pick up in the aftermath of the events of the Season 2 finale, with Joe and Love settling into their lives in suburbia with their newborn daughter. Surrounded by privileged tech entrepreneurs, judgmental mommy bloggers and Insta-famous biohackers, trouble is brewing in their relationship as Joe commits himself his new role as a husband and dad but fears “Love’s lethal impulsiveness” all while setting his sights on his latest obsession: the woman next door.
