Netflix is still using slight of hand to hide the fact that new original series are becoming few and far between. Nearly nine months into 2024, you’d think that the effects of last year’s Hollywood strikes would be behind us. But even in August, the most prominent new Netflix originals — A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and The Decameron — are British and Italian co-productions with Netflix.
Having said that, both of the new additions have earned their place on our roundup of the best Netflix original series right now, alongside this summer’s other additions, Vikings: Valhalla and Cobra Kai , which respectively wrapped up its run and started an extended final season. To catch the rest of our picks, just keep scrolling down.
