One of the most common questions we ask ourselves at the end of a long day of working is: “What should I watch on Netflix today?” We know you do the same, too! To help you out, we’ve rounded up seven new, new-ish, and Maybe New For You shows and films on Netflix that you should catch this week.
1. Enola Holmes
Based on the book series by Nancy Springer, Enola Holmes follows the adventures of the younger sister of famed detective Sherlock Holmes. The Netflix original movie boasts a stellar cast led by Stranger Things star, Millie Bobby Brown. Expect to see Henry Cavill as Sherlock Holmes (Do you think he’s too hot to play the character? Lol!), Helena Bonham Carter as their mother, and Sam Claflin as their eldest brother.

2. Get Organized With The Home Edit
Whether you’re looking for home organization inspiration or you just enjoy watching home makeovers, you’ll totally enjoy Get Organized With The Home Edit. Leading The Home Edit are Clea and Joanna, professional organizers who have a long list of Hollywood celebrities as their clients. Their project for the first episode includes Reese Witherspoon’s costume closet—yes, she kept her costumes from Legally Blonde and Big Little Lies!—and other episodes feature celebs like Khloe Kardashian, Rachel Zoe, and Neil Patrick Harris!
3. Ratched
Ratched is based on Nurse Ratched, a fictional character in the 1962 novel One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest. Louise Fletcher played the villainous role in the 1975 film adaptation of the novel, where she earned the Best Actress Award from the Academy Awards. Ryan Murphy reimagines Nurse Ratched’s beginnings in this cooky, quirky, and sometimes freaky eight-episode show starring Sarah Paulson. Also playing a major role on the show as Doctor Hanover is Filipino actor Jon Jon Briones!
