A new thriller series on Netflix is quickly becoming a hit with viewers in the U.S. and around the world, debuting just yesterday. The eight-episode mystery, produced by Jodie Foster, Conan O’Brien, and someone who worked on The X-Files, is shaping up to be one of the most popular new shows to binge-watch this weekend, from November 14th to 16th, 2025.

Netflix is having a strong November, continuing its lead in streaming with a fantastic selection of shows. The Korean drama As You Stood By recently reached the #1 spot worldwide, and the thriller The Asset has unexpectedly become a hit, staying in the global Top 5 throughout the month (according to FlixPatrol).

Alongside popular new releases like Death by Lightning (currently #1 in the U.S.), Amsterdam Empire, Rulers of Fortune, and Bad Influencer, a new thriller is quickly becoming a hit on Netflix. Starring two Emmy-winning actors and boasting a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes, it’s expected to top the charts this weekend.

The Beast In Me Is Netflix’s New Must-Binge Hit This Weekend

If you’re looking for a new show to watch this weekend, don’t miss The Beast in Me. This crime thriller is incredibly suspenseful and captivating – you’ll be hooked from the first episode!

The new Netflix series features Claire Danes, who has won three Emmy Awards for her work on Homeland, and Matthew Rhys, an Emmy winner known for The Americans. The cast also includes Brittany Snow (The Night Agent), Jonathan Banks (Breaking Bad), Natalie Morales (Parks and Recreation), and David Lyons (Troppo).

A new 8-episode thriller series from Gabe Rotter, a writer for The X-Files, and Howard Gordon, a producer on Homeland, launched on Netflix this Thursday, November 13th. The story centers on Aggie Wiggs (played by Danes), who is dealing with the loss of her son and finds a new focus when she starts investigating the disappearance of her neighbor Nile Jarvis’s (played by Rhys) wife and his questionable activities.

The Netflix series The Beast in Me is receiving rave reviews, launching with a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes – a rare achievement for shows in 2025. In a review, Mae Abdulbaki of Ebaster gave the series 8 out of 10 stars, noting that while the mystery initially attracts viewers, it’s the complex and unusual relationships between the characters that really hold their attention.

The Daily Beast gave the series high marks, calling it “expertly performed and assuredly directed,” and highlighted it as a top pick for a thrilling weekend binge on Netflix.

Just over a day after its release, The Beast in Me is already popular on Netflix, appearing in the Top 10 charts in both the U.S. and worldwide. If it keeps up this momentum, it’s predicted to become the most-watched show globally this weekend, surpassing recent hits like As You Stood By and The Witcher.

In November 2025, the new Netflix series The Beast in Me is competing for viewers with Death by Lightning, which has been the most popular show in the U.S. for the past week. However, Death by Lightning is a short, one-time series, while The Beast in Me is doing well with both audiences and critics, potentially leading to another season.

Everyone’s talking about the new Netflix thriller, The Beast in Me. It’s quickly becoming one of the most popular shows on the platform and is perfect for a weekend binge. If you’re looking for something critically acclaimed and captivating to stream, check it out now, exclusively on Netflix.
