Grey’s Anatomy season 18 is now on Netflix – Picture: ABC / Disney

Welcome to a full recap of everything new on Netflix for the past 7 days in the United States where 19 new movies dropped alongside 17 new shows. We’ll also check what was the most popular shows and movies in the United States over the past 7 days.

Next week, we’re expecting at least 48 new releases to hit the service (we’ve covered every title we know about here) with the majority of new releases coming on Friday as we move into a new month.

With new arrivals throughout the week, there will be a lot of removals. In fact, we’re expecting close to 100 removals over the next week or so. Make sure you’ve watched what you need to before it departs.

What’s New on Netflix This Weekend (June 25th-26th)

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop: A Bad Boy Story (2017)

Genre: Documentary, Music
Director: Daniel Kaufman
Cast: Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, Lil’ Kim, Mase
Runtime: 80 min

Netflix has some excellent music documentaries covering musicians but perhaps one genre it covers better than most is rap and hip-hop and that trend continues today with the release of a documentary on Puff Daddy and a two-night extravaganza put on in honor of The Notorious B.I.G.

Here’s the official description:

“This documentary captures the rise and resilience of Sean “Puff Daddy” Combs as an artist and entrepreneur, plus the 2016 Bad Boy Records reunion show.”

This documentary was first released exclusively on Apple Music.


Grey’s Anatomy (Season 18)

Genre: Drama, Romance
Cast: Ellen Pompeo, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr.
Writer: Shonda Rhimes
Runtime: 41 min

Grey's Anatomy

Picture: ABC

Ellen Pompeo continues to play the role of Meredith Grey for its record-breaking eighteenth season on ABC.

The new season consists of 20 episodes and kicks off with Bailey looking to hire new doctors and Owen and Teddy taking the next step.

How this show has managed to survive the exodus of Disney content (including Netflix Originals!) over the years is baffling but could be due to the fact that Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey’s Anatomy, remains at Netflix under an all-spanning overall deal. With the new season added and another likely to come in 2023, we shouldn’t be seeing Grey’s removed anytime soon (2026 at the earliest for newer seasons).


Anek (2022)

Genre: Action, Thriller
Director: Anubhav Sinha
Cast: Ayushmann Khurrana, Andrea Kevichüsa, Amir Hossain Ashik
Writer: Sima Agarwal, Yash Keswani, Anubhav Sinha
Runtime: 147 min

Netflix’s trend of picking up the biggest theatrical movies from India to release not in India but around the world continues this weekend with the release of Anek which only debuted in cinemas back last month.

Here’s what you can expect if you take a dive in on the Hindi-language movie:

“Amid turmoil in northeast India, an undercover agent tasked with peace negotiations crosses paths with a tenacious boxer fighting for her dreams.”
