Netflix fans don’t have a shortage of shows to enjoy as we head into the first weekend of November.
The Witcher may not be a horror story, but this dark fantasy has plenty of scary elements throughout its fourth season that make it ideal to watch this Halloween weekend.
That series is just one of Watch With Us‘ picks for the three underrated Netflix shows I can’t wait to watch this weekend.
Our other picks include a new Danish thriller and an underappreciated AMC horror series.
‘The Witcher’ (2019 – Present)
After a two-year hiatus, The Witcher is back for its fourth season. But Henry Cavill has left the role of Geralt of Rivia behind him. In his place, Liam Hemsworth will be portraying Geralt going forward, and he’s got his hands full this season. Last season, Geralt reconciled with his lover, Yennefer of Vengerberg (Anya Chalotra), and they essentially adopted the exiled princess, Ciri (Freya Allan), while protecting her from those who want to exploit her magical power.
This season, Geralt’s found family has been scattered, and each of the trio will have their own trials to face if they want to reunite with each other. In the meantime, Geralt is forming a new team. But against the rising evil on the Continent, it may not be enough.
The Witcher is streaming on Netflix.
‘The Asset’ (2025)
The Asset is the latest Danish-language original series to break out on Netflix. Clara Dessau stars in the series as Tea Lind, a police recruit who is shocked when she’s drummed out of the academy. It’s part of a test to see if Tea has what it takes to go undercover in the drug operation run by Miran (Afshin Firouzi), a ruthless criminal who arranged the murder of the last man who tried to infiltrate his gang.
Netflix is an incredible streaming platform for accessing some of the best television content from around the world. Case in point — the new Danish thriller series The Asset, which surrounds a female police officer who becomes an undercover operative tasked with bringing down a vast criminal network by befriending the girlfriend of a powerful mob […]
Tea soon finds that the best way in is through Miran’s girlfriend, Ashley (Maria Cordsen). And she’s willing to be the best friend that Ashley ever had to worm her way into Miran’s empire. But the closer that Tea gets to Ashley, the more she worries about putting her newfound asset in serious danger. If Tea’s true loyalties are discovered, both of their lives may be forfeit.
The Asset is streaming on Netflix.
‘NOS4A2’ (2019 – 2020)
Zachary Quinto embraces a monstrous persona in NOS4A2, an AMC horror series created by novelist Joe Hill. Quinto plays Charlie Manx, a seemingly immortal man whose unnaturally extended life requires him to feed on the souls of children. Charlie lures them into his grasp and exiles them into Christmasland, a twisted realm of his own creation.
Victoria “Vic” McQueen (Ashleigh Cummings) is just an ordinary artist until she realizes that she has a supernatural gift. Vic can track Charlie anywhere he goes, and she may be the only one who can save the children he stole. But Charlie may be too dangerous for Vic to handle alone, and her life is on the line as well.
NOS4A2 is streaming on Netflix.
