This Week on Netflix: 5 Must‑Watch Picks From Tom’s Guide

U.S. tech and entertainment outlet Tom’s Guide has published its latest weekly rundown of what to watch on Netflix, spotlighting five standout titles arriving or updating between September 28 and October 4. One of the biggest draws is “LEGO ONE PIECE,” the new animated special that turns the long‑running pirate saga into a tongue‑in‑cheek LEGO adventure. The site recommends it both as a quick refresher for longtime fans and as a family‑friendly way to sample the franchise without committing to hundreds of episodes.

The curated list also highlights “Doing Life,” a new prison‑set drama that marks filmmaker Tyler Perry’s third Netflix movie of 2026, along with a mix of true‑crime inspired releases and fresh seasons of existing series. Tom’s Guide notes that with so many titles hitting the service every week, starting from this shortlist is a good way to avoid decision fatigue and reduce the odds of picking a dud. While regional availability can differ, much of the lineup overlaps in Japan, making this kind of overseas curation a useful filter for viewers who feel overwhelmed by Netflix’s constant stream of new content.
