5 New Series Perfect for a One-Night Weekend Binge – Watch This Week (Feb 2–6, 2025)

Want to find some great new shows you can finish watching in a single night? You’re in luck! Here are five popular series that everyone’s talking about as of early February 2026, and they’re all perfect for a binge-watching session.

These shows are all short and sweet – each has just 3 to 8 episodes, perfect for binge-watching in a single evening. The list includes everything from passionate sports stories and a scary true crime documentary, to a historical drama and the hugely popular murder mystery currently trending on Netflix.

Finding Her Edge

The new Netflix series, Finding Her Edge, quickly became popular after its release on January 22nd. This 8-episode show combines a story about growing up with the excitement of competitive sports and a complicated romantic relationship, making it perfect for binge-watching. Based on the popular young adult novel of the same name, Finding Her Edge is currently one of the top four shows on Netflix.

Handsome Devil: Charming Killer

The true crime docuseries Handsome Devil: Charming Killer is now streaming on Paramount+. This 3-part series tells the story of a 25-year-old Florida man arrested for a double homicide, and the strange online reaction that followed. Released on January 20th, it’s perfect for a single-sitting binge if you’re a fan of the true crime genre.

The Seduction

Okay, so I just finished watching The Seduction on HBO Max, and it’s seriously good! It’s a six-episode prequel to the story behind that classic 1988 film, Dangerous Liaisons. This one focuses on a young Isabelle de Merteuil – you see how she becomes this incredibly clever and manipulative woman. Anamaria Vartolomei and Diane Kruger are fantastic in it. Honestly, it’s one of those series you can easily watch all in one go – totally binge-worthy!

His & Hers

Netflix’s His & Hers became a huge hit in 2026, quickly landing in the Top 3 most-watched series globally after its release on January 8th. The six-episode show is designed for binge-watching, with a total runtime of about two movies. Like the popular series The Beast in Me, His & Hers features a captivating lead pair – Tessa Thompson and Jon Bernthal – whose on-screen chemistry drives this suspenseful psychological thriller.

Heated Rivalry

Currently, no show is generating more buzz than Heated Rivalry. Even though the second season ended over a month ago, it’s still incredibly popular on HBO Max and all over social media. Featuring rising stars Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie – who is also hosting Saturday Night Live later this month – Heated Rivalry is the perfect show to watch in a single sitting, and it looks like it will stay that way for quite a while.
