We're at the halfway point of March already, if you can believe it. That means it's time once again to explore everything that's new on Netflix this week. There's plenty to choose from, including the highly-anticipated "3 Body Problem."
"3 Body Problem" is a sci-fi adventure that tells a story from two different perspectives. In the past, an astrophysicist is tasked with making contact with aliens at a remote facility. Then, 50 years later, a scientist is left to try and figure out what's happening when colleagues are taking their own lives due to something terrifying that occurred all those years prior.
There's also "Buying Beverly Hills" season 2, and if you're all about the drama, you'll feel nice and at home checking out The Agency's latest real estate finds, sales, and the drama that happens behind the scenes, too.
Think that's it? Not quite! It's a super-sized month with plenty of options to choose from. If you want to see more, look out for the rest of what's coming to the service as you keep scrolling. Just don't miss our complete day-by-day rundown of what's new on Netflix this week below.
