The slate of TV shows and movies new on Netflix this week is headlined by the final season of a beloved Netflix original show.
"The Umbrella Academy" will drop its fourth and final season this Thursday. Last season had the Hargreeves children of the Umbrella Academy facing off against the Hargreeves children of the Sparrow Academy. That multiversal adventure ended with the Hargreeves children saving existence from oblivion, but now they must stop the apocalypse yet again.
Hungry for more? There's still plenty to choose from. Here is a complete day-by-day rundown of what's new on Netflix this week. And be sure to check out our list of the top new shows to watch across all the major streaming services.
New on Netflix this week: Top picks
'Gabby's Dollhouse' season 10
The first top pick this week is fun for the kids, or at least something that could give parents a break. "Gabby's Dollhouse" has only been around since 2021, but already the DreamWorks Animation preschool show has already racked up 60 episodes. In the show, Gabby (Laila Lockhart Kraner) and her cat friends go on adventures inside Gabby's dollhouse, which has various themed rooms.
In season 10, the theme is holidays. So join Gabby and the Gabby Cats for 10 fun-filled episodes as they celebrate birthdays, Family Day and even Opposite Day.

'Love Is Blind: UK'
"Love Is Blind" has been a reality show staple for Netflix since its inception in early 2020. Hosted by husband-and-wife Nick and Vanessa Lachey, the show pairs men and women to see if they can find true love. The only catch? They can't see each other until they're engaged.
Now, after several successful iterations in other countries, Netflix is launching "Love Is Blind: UK." Celebrity couple Emma and Matt Willis will guide 30 British singles towards true love over three weeks this time. This week, the first four seasons drop on Netflix for you to binge.

'Secret World of Sound with David Attenborough'
'The Umbrella Academy' season 4
When you think of nature documentaries, Sir David Attenborough is probably the first name that jumps to mind. It's certainly his voice you hear in your head, whether you know who he is or not.
In "Secret World of Sound with David Attenborough," the iconic narrator uses advanced audio technology to capture the sounds of Earth's incredibly diverse flora and fauna. From the bees to wolves, lions, hyenas and more, this docuseries will give any nature lover something to watch this week.
Watch on Netflix starting August 7
"The Umbrella Academy" follows the story of the Hargreeves siblings — seven children adopted by the eccentric Sir Reginald Hargreeves as part of a plan to save the world. They've stopped the apocalypse from occurring several times at this point, but season 4 looks set to have them needing to save the world one last time.
The problem is that after the fight at Hotel Oblivion led to a complete reset of their timeline things have largely been good for ... well, everyone. But a group called The Keepers could upend everything, so the Hargreeves children have no choice to fight them, even if it destroys everything they've already won. This season features new cast members in the form of real-life couple Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally as Dr. Gene and Jane Thibedeau and David Cross as Sy Grossman.

'Blue Ribbon Baking Championship'
Fans of "The Great British Baking Show" definitely won't want to miss this latest baking competition show from Netflix. In "Blue Ribbon Baking Championship," Netflix is pitting 10 award-winning pastry chefs against each other, each with a state fair blue ribbon to their name.
For those who are unfamiliar, U.S. state fairs occur in states across the country every year and are an excuse to eat the unhealthiest — but tastiest! — food on Earth. If your food is exceptional, it can be awarded a blue ribbon to signify its excellence. In "Blue Ribbon Baking Championship," these 10 ribbon recipients are fighting for the title of America's best baker — and $100,000.

'Inside the Mind of a Dog'
If you're like me, you love your dog. And if you're like my wife, you'd love to know what your dog thinks. In this documentary from Netflix, narrator Rob Lowe takes you on a journey inside the mind of our furry friends and see what makes them tick. It also explores the differences between various breeds, like why certain dogs play fetch and why your friend's Chihuahua thinks it can take on a Great Dane.
Not a dog lover? That's okay. There's already a Netflix documentary "Inside the Mind of a Cat" for those who prefer a feline friend.

'Night School'
Teddy Walker (Kevin Hart) never graduated high school. And while things had gone surprisingly well for him, a series of unfortunate events brought his whole life crashing down. He needs a job, and his friend Marvin (Ben Schwartz) says he can get Teddy a job, but only if he has a GED. Enter unorthodox night school teacher Carrie (Tiffany Haddish), who makes it her mission to get Teddy to graduate.
"Night School" may not be the greatest or funniest movie ever. I can definitively say it's neither. But sometimes, you need a dumb comedy movie to get you through the day, and this movie perfectly fits that description.
