Young Sheldon:

Fool Me Once
Based on the #1 New York Times bestselling thriller novel from Harlan Coben, Fool Me Once is about a brutal homicide investigation that takes a sour turn when the supposed victim is spotted by his wife on a nanny cam in their house.
Squid Games: The Challenge
The dystopian TV series just got real. If you're a fan of the original Squid Games which took Netflix by storm, you are sure to like this reality TV spinoff, featuring 456 contestants fighting tooth and nail for a cash prize of $4.56 million. While there is no actual death involved (a black paint gun is shot upon elimination instead), there is plenty of on-brand backstabbing and dramatic tears for tonnes of entertainment.
Sex Education
This hilarious comedy-drama will have you both cringing and rolling around on the floor in laughter. The protagonist is an awkward, insecure boy named Otis who is sexually inexperienced and has trouble navigating his sexuality. The fact that his mom is a sex therapist complicates matters, and things start escalating when a rebellious girl named Maeve proposes that they start a school sex-therapy clinic together.
Virgin River:
With the small-town intrigue of Gilmore Girls, the medical mystery of Grey's Anatomy, and the romantic tension of all your favorite banter-filled rom-coms, this series is perfectly formulated to be binge-worthy. Even better, it takes place in a wintry northern California town—and Season 5 is newly released, so there's even more to enjoy, especially if you're looking for an easy, feel-good show to watch.
The Witcher:
Fans of Henry Cavill can enjoy his final season on the show inspired by the bestselling books and video games. Set on a fictional, medieval-inspired landmass known as "the Continent", the saga of monster slayer Geralt of Rivia continues in season 3 on Netflix this month.
Black Mirror
Black Mirror is perfect to satiate that thirst for some serious psychological horror. Each episode is essentially a standalone movie, with most episodes ranging from 45 minutes to more than an hour in length. Reality is frighteningly similar to the scenarios presented in this dark, twisted show, which makes this the perfect show to binge-watch if you want to lean into psychological terror.
Alice in Borderland
If you’re a fan of Squid Game, Alice in Borderland is the show for you as it is most often compared to it. The premise: Arisu is a genius gamer who never lived up to his potential, but suddenly finds himself in an abandoned version of Tokyo where he must compete in life-threatening games to avoid getting lasered in the head by a mysterious entity. If you survive, you get granted a several-day "visa," after which you have to willingly return to another game. Naturally, alliances are formed, friendships are tested, and betrayals are inevitable.
You:
This psychological thriller series dives into the mind of Joe Goldberg, a hopelessly romantic psychopath (two things that definitely aren't compatible). His inner monologues almost make his rationalization of murder make sense. After all, all is fair in love and war, right?
