As we approach the final stretch of the year, Netflix is preparing a robust content slate to keep subscribers entertained throughout the holiday season. Whether you are looking for high-stakes drama, laugh-out-loud comedy, or cinematic masterpieces vying for awards-season glory, the November 2026 lineup offers a diverse mix of fresh originals and beloved classics.
Must-Watch Originals and Awards Contenders
The highlight of the month is undoubtedly the return of The Hunting Wives, which drops its highly anticipated second season on Thanksgiving Day-perfect for post-feast binge-watching.
Comedy fans have plenty to look forward to as well, with Janelle James debuting her latest stand-up special. Furthermore, Netflix is doubling down on prestige cinema. Keep an eye out for Chris Rock’s Misty Green and the latest visionary project from Lee Chang-dong, Possible Love.
