Netflix is firing on all cylinders this week with a loaded slate of original series and returning favorites. From the emotional highs of All American season 7 to the wildly dark twists in Tom Segura’s new comedy Bad Thoughts, there’s more than enough to dig into. Whether you’re craving anime-inspired drama, gritty crime documentaries, or sharp sci-fi shorts, Netflix just gave the streaming wars a serious shot to the gut.
All American Season 7 Arrives With Grown-Up Drama And Full Energy
After seven seasons of high school football, social struggles, and emotional storytelling, All American has evolved — and so have its characters. Netflix just added the full seventh season of the sports drama that turned casual viewers into die-hard fans. What started as a teenage athlete’s journey across Los Angeles now follows the main cast as adults, with a new focus on Jordan (Michael Evans Behling).
Daniel Ezra’s Spencer James may no longer be front and center, but his presence still looms large, even if only through guest appearances. The latest season fast-forwards into adult lives, relationships, and careers. Jordan, Layla (Greta Onieogou), and Coop (Bre-Z) aren’t just playing the game anymore — they’re living it. And as they mentor a new generation of Beverly and Crenshaw teens, the lines between youth and adulthood blur in real time.
Fans who once saw this as just another high school sports show now call it the best series on TV. And with good reason. The latest season doesn’t just deliver touchdowns; it scores emotional wins in every episode. Whether you’re new to the series or have been watching since day one, All American season 7 is the kind of drama that sticks with you.
Love, Death & Robots Returns With Dinosaurs, Cats, And String-Puppet Rock Stars
Netflix’s genre-bending anthology Love, Death & Robots is back with its fourth volume, and it’s as unpredictable as ever. Tim Miller and David Fincher are still calling the shots, and they’ve packed this batch with everything from dinosaur gladiators to messianic felines. The new episodes don’t just push boundaries — they jump over them with style.
Each short feels like a punch to the creative gut, in the best way possible. There’s one about a rock band made of living puppets, another starring cats with divine missions, and of course, blood, violence, and philosophical questions sprinkled throughout. If you’ve ever wanted to see what a collaboration between David Fincher and your wildest imagination looks like, this is it.
Tom Segura’s Bad Thoughts Turns Intrusive Ideas Into Darkly Comedic Nightmares
What happens when you let your worst, most intrusive thoughts run the show? Comedian Tom Segura explores this grim question in Bad Thoughts, a new sketch comedy series that’s part I Think You Should Leave, part psychological horror. Segura plays a country singer who kidnaps his fans and forces them to share their trauma — all in the name of writing better songs.
The sketches are twisted, imaginative, and often uncomfortable. One scene has baristas getting gruesomely punished for being smug. Another features a cult-like group of environmentalists spiraling into chaos. It’s a sharp turn from Segura’s stand-up persona, but one that shows he’s willing to play in darker creative spaces. Bad Thoughts may not be for everyone, but it’s impossible to ignore.
Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story Reveals New Victim Testimonies
Netflix doesn’t shy away from grim real-life stories, and its latest true crime docuseries Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story is proof. The three-part series digs deeper into the atrocities committed by the infamous couple, using previously unseen police footage and audio recordings to paint a more visceral picture of their crimes.
What sets this series apart are the first-hand testimonies from survivors and workers who encountered the Wests. Some relatives of the victims speak on record for the first time. It’s haunting material, but it adds layers of human experience that often get lost in crime documentaries. Whether it offers new insight or just more grim detail is up for debate, but it’s certainly compelling viewing.
Bet Brings High-Stakes Gambling Drama To Netflix With Anime Flair
Based on the popular Japanese manga and anime Kakegurui, the live-action series Bet throws us into a prestigious boarding school where gambling isn’t just a game — it’s a way to survive. The protagonist, a transfer student with a cool edge, quickly makes a name for herself in the school’s underground betting world.
It’s flashy, intense, and full of the kind of psychological one-upmanship that made the original anime a cult hit. Bet sticks to that spirit while adding its own twist, making it a must-watch for fans of anime adaptations and high-school power plays alike.
