3 new Netflix shows dropping this week worth resubscribing for (Feb 16

If you’ve unsubscribed from Netflix recently, you’re not alone. However, data from Recurly suggests that even around half of those who cancel Netflix return within six months, usually because a high-profile tv show or movie they want to see is coming out on the service.

If this sounds like you, this week may be one worth looking at as you weigh your streaming subscription options. From the return of one of Netflix’s most popular series ever to a raunchy new animated series featuring the voice talents of Succession’s Adam Scott, there are a lot of brand new shows to look forward to this week on Netflix.

The Night Agent

The action suspense hit comes to Netflix for a third season

The Night Agent, which follows US special operative Peter Sutherland (played by Gabriel Basso) was a surprise hit for Netflix when it debuted in 2023, quickly rocketing up the charts and becoming one of Netflix’s most-watched series of all time. As a night agent, Peter deals with the most intense threats to national security, and this season, he’s on the hunt in his own backyard, tracking down a Treasury Agent who is suspected of murder and selling secrets. This season will also see Peter grappling with his past and the role that he has played in helping enemy factions rise to power.

The new season is dropping later this week on February 19th, with all ten episodes dropping at once.
