Nobody Wants This highlights Netflix’s weekend additions.
While Netflix has a ton of new arrivals ready for October, the weekend leading up to the new month is actually a fairly light one. The service has only announced new releases for Thursday and Friday, and there won’t be any other additions until October arrives on Tuesday. On top of that, there aren’t really any major titles amongst this small weekend wave, save for a new dramedy series and a potentially award-winning documentary.
The big highlight for the weekend actually launched on Thursday. The title in question is Nobody Wants This, a romantic dramedy series starring Adam Brody and Kristen Bell.
On Friday, Netflix will debut the highly anticipated documentary Will & Harper, which follows actor Will Ferrell and his good friend, Harper Steele on a once-in-a-lifetime road trip. You can check out all of the weekend’s Netflix additions below!
