Netflix does a lot of things well, but it especially excels at keeping subscribers happy with a lot of shows to watch.
Rather than riding out the rest of 2025 on its own coattails, Netflix is bringing back two of its original shows for new seasons in November.
Both of those comedy series are among the three underrated Netflix shows you need to watch in November, as chosen by the Watch With Us team.
Our final selection is a recent arrival from a rival streamer that’s already become a breakout hit.

‘The Vince Staples Show’ (2024 – Present)
If you can picture a version of Curb Your Enthusiasm that’s even more surreal with some hilarious action scenes, you might get something close to The Vince Staples Show. In the tradition of Curb, Vince Staples plays a version of himself who lives in a very exaggerated take on our reality. It’s just close enough to be recognizable as our world, but it veers off into some unexpected comedic territory.
The recently premiered season 2 finds Staples mourning his Uncle James (Beau Billingslea), but the circumstances surrounding the latter’s will reading and funeral become increasingly bizarre. Staples also has to keep the peace between his mother, Anita Staples (Vanessa Bell Calloway), and his sister, Bri (Naté Jones), neither of whom is particularly interested in playing nice with each other. But some of the things Staples encounters this season make his warring family members seem tame by comparison.

‘Absentia’ (2017 – 2020)
Like Sneaky Pete before it, Absentia is a former Prime Video original series that’s been sent to a new home where it can become a lot more popular than it ever was on Amazon. It’s already cracked Netflix’s top 10 series, and reminded fans that Stana Katic is capable of doing a lot more than just lighthearted rom-com mysteries like Castle. In this series, Katic plays FBI Special Agent Emily Byrne, a woman who was declared dead in absentia, since she disappeared without a trace and her body was never found.
November is the best time to get cozy under a blanket and throw on a hard-boiled crime show. Thankfully, the English are well-known for their expertise in that area. Thank You!

Six years later, Emily turns up alive without any memory of where she’s been or the man who abducted her. The world moved on without her, and so did Emily’s husband, Special Agent Nick Durand (Patrick Heusinger). When Nick believed that he brought Emily’s killer to justice, he moved on and married another woman. Now that Emily is back in his life, there are more questions than answers, especially after she’s framed for murder and forced to go on the run.

‘A Man on the Inside’ (2024 – Present)
Four decades of starring in TV sitcoms have given Ted Danson the chance to do it all over again in A Man on the Inside. Danson plays Charles Nieuwendyk, a widowed man who finds a new purpose in life when a private detective, Julie Kovalenko (Lilah Richcreek Estrada), hires him to go undercover in a retirement community to locate an extremely valuable ruby necklace.
Season 2 of the show is premiering on November 20, and it kicks off a new story for Charlie. His investigation at the Pacific View Retirement Community is over, but some of the friends he made there remain in his life as he’s drawn into another mystery. Danson’s real-life wife, Mary Steenburgen, is joining the cast this season as Charles’ new love interest, Mona Margadoff. Charles is understandably smitten with her, but her potential link to his new investigation may get their romance off on the wrong foot.
