A new weekend is here, and Netflix is coming in hot with the bingeable content. As falling temperatures issuing in seasonal bingeing periods, the streaming giant is making sure its library is packed to the brim with fresh titles, and this weekend it is adding 15 new additions to the mix, including 13 Netflix original series and films.
This weekend will be a massive one for Netflix’s content catalogue, with a mix of new and returning shows joining the lineup. After dropping its controversial but widely-viewed series Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story last month, Netflix will delve deeper into the troubling case when Conversations with a Killer: The Jeffrey Dahmer Tapes drops this weekend. For those wishing to steer clear of the heavy topic, Netflix will give subscribers plenty of other options as well, including a new season of Derry Girls, with this weekend’s batch of episodes bringing the beloved story to an end. Meanwhile, a new title will join director Mike Flanagan’s lineup alongside the likes of The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, and Midnight Mass when Midnight Club premieres.

Set to premiere on Friday, Oct. 7, and following the first installment centered around Ted Bundy, Conversations with a Killer: The Jeffrey Dahmer Tapes features newly-unearthed recorded interviews with Dahmer’s his legal team, “revealing the ways that race, sexuality, class and policing allowed him to prey upon Milwaukee’s marginalized communities.” Dahmer committed the murder and dismemberment of seventeen men and boys between 1978 and 1991.
‘Derry Girls: Season 3’
Channel 4’s hit comedy Derry Girls concludes its three season run on Friday.
