New on Netflix this week: Top picks

'Outer Banks' season 4 part 2

"Outer Banks" follows a group of teens in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, known as the "Pogues." The Pogues are aspiring treasure hunters, but often they just manage to get themselves in trouble. There's fighting, romance and a whole lot of gold — at one point they even discover the lost city of El Dorado.

As you can tell, this teen drama set in the Carolinas quickly found itself going beyond the barrier islands, though the drama between the local Pogues and the wealthy seasonal residents known as the "Kooks" never goes away. This season, the Pogues are back closer to home, looking for Blackbeard's lost treasure. The first five episodes already dropped back in October, so catch up now and then watch the final half of the season when it's released on November 7.

'Arcane' season 2 Act I

If you've played "League of Legends," you know that the game doesn't do much in terms of interactive character-building. The characters do have unique designs and backstories, but the focus is on how each champion best serves your team's gameplay.

That makes "Arcane" all the more impressive because it excels at the story and worldbuilding that the game lacks. The show is set in the rich, utopian city of Piltover and the seedy, oppressed underbelly of Zaun, and stars Hailee Steinfeld and Ella Purnell as the voices of sisters Vi and Powder (later Jinx). In season 2, these sisters on rival sides of the conflict are dealing with the aftermath of Jinx’s attack on the Council and the increased likelihood of conflict between Piltover and Zaun.

'Countdown: Paul vs. Tyson'

Jake Paul's professional boxing career has been interesting. The YouTuber has 11 wins under his belt but he lost his first bout against a fellow active professional boxer, a split decision against Tommy Fury. He's since won against two other active pro boxers, so perhaps he's turned a corner. But this could be his toughest test yet.

That's because he's taking on Mike Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. Tyson may nearly be eligible for Social Security, but he also has a resume that makes him one of the greatest boxers of all time. Watch "Countdown: Paul vs. Tyson" to catch all the behind-the-scenes action before the Netflix live event fight on November 15.

'The Lost City'

"The Lost City" stars Sandra Bullock as Loretta Sage. Loretta is an archaeologist-turned-romance novelist who pulls from her time as a researcher to inspire her stories. She's become a recluse after the death of her husband though and is forced by her publisher Beth (Da'Vine Joy Randolph) to get out and go on tour to promote her new book, alongside her book's cover model — the dimwitted Alan Caprison (Channing Tatum). But when billionaire Abigail Fairfax (Daniel Radcliffe) kidnaps Loretta to help him find lost treasure, Beth and Alan must save her.

I liked "The Lost City" when I saw it in theaters. It's a fun romantic comedy with plenty of comedy, and it's very well-cast. It also features an excellent cameo from Brad Pitt as Jack Trainer, a former Navy SEAL turned CIA operative who works with Alan and Beth to help rescue Loretta ... which does not go according to plan.
