My friends, it is time to chill. Maybe it's with a significant other or maybe you're flying solo. Nevertheless, it's time to find out what's new to Netflix this weekend (August 20-22) so you snuggle like a bug in a rug and get after it via streaming.

Before we get going, it's certainly worth noting that this is according to the streaming service itself. If — for some magical reason — it decides to drop a random blockbuster and we don't have it here, we're sorry in advance. At the time of this update, nothing has changed from the original posting date. This is reflective as of Saturday August 14 at (roughly) 10:30 in the morning (eastern).

This is the second week in a row when I'll whine and moan and complain when doing our what's new to Netflix this weekend post, as — yet mother-bleeping-again — the streaming service is going dry on the weekend after Friday. I am uncontrollably upset. Someone fix this weird scheduling deal they have going on!

Releasing August 22

See all my complaints about Saturday? Well  you can sure as sugar hurl this to Sunday as well. To be fair to them, as it probably is for other streaming services, there's an entire global pandemic that mucked up everyone's production schedules. That said, historically, Netflix and others prefer to drop fun stuff on Tuesdays for some reason.

Nonetheless, that's what's new on Netflix this weekend (Netflix August 20-22).
