November 2026 is shaping up as one of the busiest months for streaming in recent memory. Six major series are back with new seasons, and each one carries a different level of buzz. From the final chapter of a Netflix giant to the return of a Prime Video fantasy epic, here is the ranking based on trailer views, viewership records, and social media chatter.
5. The Hunting Wives Season 2 – Netflix, November 26
The Hunting Wives returns for its second season on Thanksgiving Day, with all eight episodes arriving at once on Netflix in nearly every country where the service is available. The first season pulled in more than 20 million views during its first five weeks and spent five weeks on the global English Top 10 TV list.
Malin Akerman and Brittany Snow are back as Margo and Sophie, picking up after the fallout of their fractured relationship. Creator and showrunner Rebecca Cutter has promised a season that goes further than the first.
“I think it could be the funnest season ever,” Cutter said. “I promise that once you’ve finished Season 2, you’ll be desperate to see what happens next.”
The show sits at 81% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes after its debut season, and its mix of Texas socialite drama and twisted secrets has built a steady following.
