New on Netflix August 2-8: only four new shows and movies hit Netflix this week but one is huge
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. It happens to the best of us: most weeks Netflix has such a long list of new releases that I can only cover a fraction in this weekly round-up, but now and then, there's barely enough to populate a list. Between Saturday, August 2 and Friday, August 8, only four new releases are joining Netflix's library, so my usual list is going to be a little shorter than usual. I only include brand-new Netflix Originals, not third-party titles added to the service, as these programmes are available worldwide. Sometimes the Netflix Originals I include are worthy of our lists of the best Netflix shows and best Netflix movies, and one of the new releases this week is a hugely-anticipated sequel series, so there's definitely going to be something to watch. So let's find you something worth watching on Netflix this week... Beyond the Bar Starting the week off (on a Saturday, which is rare for Netflix) is the new Korean drama series Beyond the Bar. This seems to have a strange release schedule which mirrors its Korean release: an episode every Saturday and Sunday for several weeks. Beyond the Bar is set in Korea's legal word, and it's about a young rookie lawyer who starts to work for a big law firm. He finds his strong sense of justice challenged by the intricacies and moral gray areas of the work he has to do. Premieres on Saturday, August 2 SEC Football: Any Given Saturday Netflix subscribers are no stranger to sports documentary series, with a new one landing every other week, and this time around there's SEC Football: Any Given Saturday which releases on Tuesday, August 5. This series follows college footballers in the South Eastern Conference (hence, SEC) over the course of their 2024 season. You'll get to see players on the pitch and relaxing between games behind-the-scenes, to see what it's like being a college football player. Releases on Tuesday, August 5 Wednesday season 2 The smash-hit TV show returns when Wednesday season 2 releases; the first four episodes release on Thursday, August 6 and the last four on Thursday, September 3. This Addams Family prequel follows young Wednesday Addams as she attends the Nevermore Academy and season 2 sees her attend another year of school. She also has to solve a mystery along the way. A long list of new faces join her along the way, with many recognizable celebrity actors joining the cast. Part 1 releases on Wednesday, August 6 Stolen: Heist of the Century The second Netflix documentary this year about a jewel theft, Stolen: Heist of the Century is a doc movie about a well-known noughties crime that releases on Friday, August 8. Stolen: Heist of the Century looks at a 2003 robbery in Antwerp which saw hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of diamonds stolen in a surprisingly capable heist. No-one's ever been sure how the crime was actually committed but according to Netflix, that's finally going to change with the movie revealing it for the first time. As you can imagine, not a single diamond was ever recovered from the heist. Releases on Friday, August 8 Solve the daily Crossword

SummerSlam returns with a can't-miss weekend at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. We've compiled everything you need to know about where to watch WWE SummerSlam, including global live streaming options. Netflix has the event outside the US, and we can show you how to use your US account to access it, too. John Cena and Cody Rhodes headline the two-day event with a Street Fight for the WWE Undisputed Championship. It's just one match in a jam-packed weekend, which includes a WWE Women's Championship fight between Tiffany Stratton and Jade Cargill, and a World Heavyweight Championship fight between CM Punk and Gunther. The weekend will also feature a star-studded match-up that pits Randy Orton and Jelly Roll against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul. Keep reading to learn how to tune into SummerSlam from around the world. For more sports streaming recommendations and events, check out our guide to the best cord-cutting sports streaming apps you need this month. Where to watch WWE SummerSlam in the US Peacock will live stream WWE SummerSlam in the United States. In addition to this weekend's event, the streaming service hosts various other WWE events. Peacock also carries content from NBC and Bravo, and select live sporting events. There are two tiers of Peacock, the cheapest of which starts at $11/month. WWE is available with both the ad-supported and ad-free tiers. Ads apply to on-demand content only, so either subscription will feature advertisements during the SummerSlam event. The ad-free tier, which costs $17 a month, also offers NBC live streaming capabilities. Where to watch WWE SummerSlam in the UK, Canada, and other regions Netflix is the streaming home of WWE SummerSlam in most other regions. Prices vary from region to region and depend on your subscription tier. You can read our Netflix price guide for more information. According to Netflix, the event is available to stream in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Ecuador, Egypt, Finland, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Kuwait, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, and the UK. How to watch WWE SummerSlam from anywhere SummerSlam fans who are outside the location where their streaming service works can still tune in with the help of a VPN (virtual private network). VPNs are cybersecurity tools that enable people to alter their virtual locations. So if you happen to be away from the UK or Canada at the moment, for example, you can still watch via Netflix with a VPN. They're popular apps among those hoping to access their usual websites and apps while traveling abroad or boost their online privacy and security. As far as VPNs go, our top recommendation is consistently NordVPN. We've found that it can work with various websites and apps, like those mentioned above, and has some top-notch security features in its long-term contracts, which can help boost your day-to-day safety on the internet. Plus, it's a beginner-friendly option with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can read more about it in our NordVPN review, and see below to learn how to use a VPN. How to use a VPN Sign up for a VPN if you don't already have one. Install it on the device you're using to watch. Turn it on and set it to the location of your streaming service, like the UK or Canada. Log in to your Netflix account. Enjoy the program! Note: The use of VPNs is illegal in certain countries and using VPNs to access region-locked streaming content might constitute a breach of the terms of use for certain services. Business Insider does not endorse or condone the illegal use of VPNs.
