<\/p>\nWe all have our Netflix comfort watches. Whether it\u2019s journeying back to the operating room in Grey\u2019s Anatomy<\/em> or rooting for your favorite couples in Love is Blind<\/em>, there\u2019s nothing quite like cozying up with your tried and true viewing after a long day. Picture it: You are freshly showered, tea and phone in hand, Slack messages off, and ready to doom scroll through the entirety of the show (guilty). But as much as we love revisiting our favorite shows and movies, sometimes taking a chance on new cinematic worlds can be just as satisfying, if not more so.<\/p>\n Tucked away in those overlooked corners of your Netflix queue is a show or movie that will make you swoon, laugh out loud, or hide behind your throw pillow. Whether you\u2019re craving a little drama, a rich character plot, or star-crossed romance, we have braved the never-ending Netflix scroll to find the hidden gems you won\u2019t regret watching.<\/strong> The ones so good, you won\u2019t believe you haven\u2019t seen them on Netflix before. So next time you\u2019re cuddled up on your couch, about to queue up your typical viewing, this mix of quiet new releases and library titles might be worth adding to your recently watched list.<\/p>\n Starring Channing Tatum, Daniel Craig, Riley Keough, and Adam Driver, this starstruck indie gem is one of my favorite watches whenever I\u2019m craving some lighthearted fun. While it does fall into the hillbilly heist comedy lane, don\u2019t let this name tag fool you\u2014the movie\u2019s incredibly sharp wit, wildly fun twists, and an offbeat charm totally pull off the job. The story follows a down-on-his-luck West Virginia family man who teams up with his brother and sister to steal money from the Charlotte Motor Speedway in North Carolina. The fallout is incredibly funny, chaotic, and worth entertaining on a Friday night.<\/p>\n Starring Schitt\u2019s Creek<\/em>\u2019s Annie Murphy, this show\u2019s unique structure makes it such a standout in clever storytelling. On the surface, the show feels like your typical laugh-track sitcom, only this time, something much darker and emotionally rich lurks beneath the surface, completely flipping the genre on its head. The story creatively shifts between sitcom-style and traditional drama while following a wife who seeks to reclaim control of her life. It\u2019s utterly funny, completely twisted, and definitely deserves more praise than it gets.<\/p>\n You might recognize this one from its Oscar win for Best International Feature Film earlier this year. If you\u2019re down for entertainment that also humbles you with some grounding life lessons, sit tight. This one is a devastating watch but also a powerful one. Following a mother and activist coping with the disappearance of her husband during a military dictatorship in Brazil, I\u2019m Still Here<\/em> is an incredibly important story. Be prepared for subtitles, but I promise it is so worth the extra reading.<\/p>\n While attending a Jewish funeral service with her family, a bisexual college student (Rachel Sennott) has an awkward encounter between her sugar daddy and her ex-girlfriend that quickly leads to a chaotic series of events. Watching this movie is like witnessing your worst social nightmare come to life in the most hilarious way. You\u2019ll cringe the whole time but also be thoroughly entertained. It\u2019s full of wit, standout performances, and raw explorations of identity and family that will either haunt you or move you.<\/p>\n With Aubrey Plaza, Dave Franco, Elizabeth Reaser, and Orlando Bloom (just to name a few), this Netflix Original comedy series follows an intertwined group of friends in Chicago fighting their way through a maze of modern love, sex, technology, and culture. From a couple hoping to reignite their sex life to middle-aged dating, this show is full of diverse and entertaining plotlines. If your weeknight lounging typically calls for 30-minute laughs, try this one out next.<\/p>\n Set in a Level-5 maximum security prison outside St. Louis, Missouri, this 33-minute documentary follows the lives of several inmates who sew custom quilts for children on adoption waitlists. Not only does this film give you a peek into this group\u2019s month-long completion processes for each quilt, but it also shows the triumphs and life lessons each of them has learned from their time in prison. It\u2019s a super sweet, grounded representation of what it means to learn from your mistakes and spread love in your community.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re growing tired of rewatching predictable crime dramas\u2014solving every whodunit like an expert detective 10 years on the job\u2014it might be time to investigate something new. The Stranger<\/em> is one of those masterful mystery shows that keeps you on the edge of your seat from episode one. It\u2019s completely twisted, wildly unsettling, and will haunt you for weeks on end (in the best ways). Despite rave reviews from critics, The Stranger<\/em> somehow slipped through my algorithm for far too long. But once I found it, I couldn\u2019t stop thinking about it\u2014and now I recommend it to anyone and everyone craving a new mystery.<\/p>\n If you love Formula 1: Drive to Survive<\/em>, you need to watch the F1: The Academy<\/em> series, its cooler younger sister. Produced by Reese Witherspoon\u2019s company, Hello Sunshine, this docuseries goes behind the scenes with a group of 15 women in the 2024 F1 Academy season. The story highlights each of the drivers\u2019 journeys, struggles, and determination as they compete for the championship amidst a traditionally male-dominated sport. The series was only released this past May but still feels like it deserves more hype than it\u2019s getting.<\/p>\n Starring Olivia Colman, Dakota Johnson, Paul Mescal, and more, this Netflix Original movie brings the world of acclaimed author Elena Ferrante from page to screen. Though the film divided critics upon its release, the psychological drama still delivers in its unsettling plot and a masterful performance from Coleman, which makes it well worth watching. Following a college professor who meets a woman and her young daughter while on vacation in Greece, a sudden obsession with the woman and her daughter quickly spirals.<\/p>\n Perfect for fans of Nobody Wants This<\/em> or rom-coms like This is 40<\/em>, this romantic series offers a candid look at the highs and lows of modern intimacy. Following a people-pleasing \u201cnice guy,\u201d Gus, and his fateful encounter with a wildly different Mickey (Gillian Jacobs), the two can\u2019t help but fall for each other, despite their differences. It fits the \u201cyou can\u2019t help who you love\u201d mold we commonly see in rom-coms but adds a refreshing edge that makes their messy and chaotic relationship journey feel grounded and incredibly bingeable.<\/p>\n Getting stuck in a never-ending cycle of bad luck can be suffocating\u2014unless you\u2019re with SZA and Keke Palmer, then it\u2019s just good fun. This film has a lighthearted vibe that\u2019s easy to love. Full of relatable themes in friendship and financial struggles, SZA and Palmer portray a bestie duo who are having a really, really<\/em> bad day. After one of their roommates steals their rent money, it\u2019s a frantic race against the clock to find the money and avoid eviction. It\u2019s the perfect watch for when you need a good laugh.<\/p>\n Dept. Q<\/em> spent some time under Netflix\u2019s Top 10 spotlight recently, but was quickly swept away in a sea of newer releases after its debut. So, in case you missed this one, here it is now\u2014and it definitely deserves a chance from my fellow crime story-obsessed. Not only does it feature a masterful performance from The Crown<\/em>\u2018s Matthew Goode, but it has all the things a great crime show needs to thrive\u2014and then some. It\u2019s bound by a dark and twisted plot, complex and vulnerable characters, and a juicy whodunit twist to make you throw your popcorn buckets. The story follows a former top-rated detective who, after surviving a brutal attack, is assigned a cold case that goes wary. <\/p>\n Just like all of the best food shows really are, Somebody Feed Phil<\/em> is not about the food\u2014it\u2019s about community. Not overly flashy or critique-heavy, this watch isn\u2019t as viral as other food series (I\u2019m talking about you, Is It Cake?<\/em>). But what this show lacks in food critique, it gains by offering you a feast of heartfelt moments. Each episode follows\u00a0Everybody Loves Raymond<\/em>\u00a0creator Phil Rosenthal as he tours the world in search of the best fine dining, street foods, and local delights. It feels less like a TV series and more like backpacking across the world with your well-traveled friend who knows where all the real<\/em> spots to grab a bite are hidden.<\/p>\n I have been waiting for this movie to hit streaming ever since its theater debut in 2023, and I was so excited to see it finally arrive on Netflix recently. Starring Greta Lee, Teo Yoo, and John Magaro, this Oscar-nominated feature follows two childhood friends who reunite for one fateful week in New York City. Full of big-city nostalgia and stunning visuals, this watch promises to tug on the heartstrings. Plus, if you love Celine Song\u2019s Materialists<\/em>, this movie offers another lively introduction to Song\u2019s cinematic world-building.<\/p>\n Created by and starring Natasha Lyonne\u2014alongside Amy Poehler, who also writes and directs for the series\u2014it\u2019s so surprising to me how this show continues to fly under the radar, given its star power and playful plot. Who knows why this show doesn\u2019t make as much mainstream noise in comparison to its peers, but it\u2019s criminally underrated. Both sharp and wildly bingeable, the series follows a young woman named Nadia who keeps dying and coming back to life on her birthday, over and over again. Exploring themes of grief, trauma, and mortality, this watch is great for fans of The Good Place<\/em> or those who loved Lyonne in Orange is the New Black<\/em>.<\/p>\n I always stumble across this Irish sitcom when searching for new comedy shows\u2014but somehow, it always gets overshadowed by whatever new, shiny, star-studded series I end up clicking on instead. It wasn\u2019t until recently, when I finally had a chance to dive in, that I witnessed what many Reddit users have been declaring for years: This show is still devastatingly<\/em> underrated. Featuring familiar faces, like Bridgerton<\/em>\u2018s Nicola Coughlan, this coming-of-age story follows a group of teen friends and the trials and triumphs they experience amidst a world of armed police and British Army checkpoints in 1990s Ireland.<\/p>\n In this incredibly erotic thriller movie, an unexpected promotion at a cutthroat hedge fund company pushes a newly engaged couple to the brink\u2014but there\u2019s more than just their relationship at risk. This film stares down the barrel of gender power dynamics and leaves room to keep you guessing from beginning to end. It\u2019s been hailed as \u201cone of the more incisive and powerfully made movies about relationship dynamics\u201d by critics.<\/p>\n This underrated dramedy film follows three estranged siblings who come together in New York to celebrate their father\u2019s work as an artist. While it received praise for its powerful performances and slow-burn plot, it still doesn\u2019t find itself in Netflix roundups as often as it deserves. Offering a stunning mix of humor, thematic dialogue, and entertaining family dynamics, this movie delivers a story that feels deeply and utterly human.<\/p>\n As an Assistant Editor for The Everygirl, Madigan writes and edits content for every topic under the digital media sun.
