Netflix‘s top five shows to watch this week, July 27–31, include a brand new 8-part action thriller and two original hit series with upcoming season releases. While viral streaming hits like The Hawk, Ransom Canyon, and Elite Force continue to dominate viewership charts worldwide, these five Netflix shows were either just added to the platform this week or have new season drops in August, making now the perfect time to binge them.
One of the most exciting new additions to Netflix this week is not even an original series but is widely considered to be one of the greatest psychological thriller TV shows ever made, sporting a Rotten Tomatoes score of 93% across three seasons. Netflix is only releasing one major new series this week that is expected to be a weekend streaming hit once all eight episodes become available on Wednesday, July 29. Also, one of Netflix’s most thrilling K-dramas is now fully bingeable from start to finish following its season finale arrival earlier this week.
Wrath
Wrath is the most promising new Netflix original series set to premiere this week out of its very limited slate. The new 8-part action crime thriller drops on Wednesday, July 29, and combines elements of action, crime thriller, and sports drama for a full-throttle viewing experience. Also titled Fúria, Wrath is a Brazilian series that is deeply entrenched in the world of mixed martial arts. The story follows a struggling young man who is saved by an honorable MMA coach and rises up to become a serious fighter, only to have his past come back to haunt him.
Agent Kim Reactivated
Agent Kim Reactivated has been one of Netflix’s most popular shows this summer since it premiered back in late June. Following the arrival of its season 1 finale episode on July 25, all 10 episodes of Agent Kim Reactivated are now available to binge for the very first time. The series, which earned an 89% Rotten Tomatoes audience score, follows a man who was once an elite secret agent who must come out of retirement once his daughter goes missing. Determined to find her at all costs, Agent Kim stops at nothing to seek his revenge in this top-rated K-drama.
Outer Banks
Outer Banks has been one of Netflix’s most popular shows since it premiered back in 2020 and is one of the very best to binge during the summer. With season 5 premiering next month, which will bring an end to the viral teen drama series after 50 episodes, there’s no better time to begin binging or start re-watching Outer Banks, which combines elements of action, crime, mystery, thriller, and romance. The series begins with an elaborate treasure hunt on an island in North Carolina and evolves into a juicy tale of love triangles and dark secrets.
Tires
Tires became a surprise hit comedy show on Netflix back in 2024 with its 6-part first season before developing into one of the streamer’s most promising and original comedy shows with its fan-favorite season 2. Starring comedian and podcaster Shane Gillis, Tires returns with a 12-part third season which premieres on August 13, making this week an opportune time to catch up or dive into the comedy series. Tires season 2 earned a 91% Rotten Tomatoes audience score and featured performances by Vince Vaughn, Thomas Haden Church, and more.
Hannibal
The best show to binge on Netflix this week isn’t even an original series but was just added to the platform on Monday, July 27. All three seasons and 39 episodes of the critically acclaimed psychological thriller Hannibal are now available to stream on Netflix.
Starring Mads Mikkelsen as the infamous Dr. Hannibal Lecter, made famous by Anthony Hopkins in The Silence of the Lambs, the series closely examines the fascinating relationship between Lecter and an FBI profiler, High Dancy, who empathizes with serial killers.
