Netflix has a slew of new shows and movies to watch for the Labor Day Weekend. While none are quite at the scale of Amazon Prime’s big release today in the form of The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power, there are still some new titles worth watching. Here’s what’s new and trending on Netflix for September 2nd, 2022.

Today is your last chance to watch the excellent sci-fi movie Freaks which departs tomorrow. This weekend is your last chance to watch the sci-fi series Frequency and your last chance to watch The Vampire Diaries too.

In case you missed it, Netflix added over 50 titles yesterday as part of its regular first-of-the-month refresh. Catch a full list of what’s new here.

Eight episodes of the new limited series from executive producers Daria Polatin, Rachel Miller, and Andrew Wilder just touched down to kick off Netflix’s spooky Halloween lineup.

It’s been a while since Netflix scored a CBC (Canadian state broadcaster) co-production but Fakes has arrived and so far, has secured great reviews.

The series comes David Turko, who has worked on Netflix’s Warrior Nun, and is about two girls, Zoe and Becca, who set out to build their own fake ID empire. Things are seemingly on the rise, and business is booming, bringing a unique set of problems that could see their empire come crashing down.

Think teen Breaking Bad.
