The best Netflix Original series of the moment

As we head into fall, Netflix’s selection of new original series pales in comparison to its lineup a year ago. That could be the fallout from last year’s Hollywood strikes or a sign of the entertainment industry’s new normal. Either way, Netflix has been leaning more heavily on acquired series than on launching new programming in 2024.

Luckily, we have two worthy options among Netflix’s original series in September. The perfect couple is a mystery series with a White Lotus vibe, while Terminator Zero is everything we hoped the Terminator sequels would be. To see the rest of our picks for the best Netflix original series, just scroll down.
