Move over Halloween, it’s Christmas season. Halloween’s barely cold in its grave and the happy holiday content is coming in hot for November on Netflix. In between the festivities though, you can look forward to the second (and final, sob) season of the incredible animated series Arcane. If you need a pick me up after Arcane comes to an end, you can also look forward to a new show from the creator of The Good Place, A Man on the Inside, starring Ted Danson. Plus, there’s also Joy, an uplifting film about the (literal) birth of IVF.
Some other notables that didn’t make our top picks include Season 6 Part 2 of Cobra Kai; the biographical miniseries Senna about the legendary Brazilian Formula One driver; and The Piano Lesson, Malcolm Washington’s directorial debut based on the Pulitzer-prize winning August Wilson play.
Plus, if you missed them as surprise additions to Netflix in October, make sure to check out movies Woman of the Hour and Studio Ghibli’s Oscar-winning The Boy and the Heron.
