'A Man on the Inside'COLLEEN E. HAYES/NETFLIX

What’s Coming to Netflix in November 2024

A new Mike Schur comedy starring Ted Danson!? That's just one reason to be excited about Netflix's November offerings.

by · IndieWire

Look, obviously the big news this November is the U.S. presidential election.

But for the moments when you want to look away from wall-to-wall coverage (or just stop doomscrolling), Netflix has plenty to keep you occupied. There’s new original Christmas movies like “Hot Frosty” and “The Merry Gentlemen,” as well as more “Outer Banks” for fans of that show created by Josh Pate, Jonas Pate, and Shannon Burke. Plus Oscar contenders like “Emilia Perez” are now streaming on the service. But all of that is just preamble to our No. 1 pick this month, because when Mike Schur has a new television show, it’s time to pay attention.

Top Pick: “A Man on the Inside”

Created by Schur and loosely based on the 2020 documentary “The Mole Agent,” the eight-episode comedy series will star Ted Danson, who volunteers to help a private detective by going undercover at a nursing home when the adult child of one of the residents reports his mom’s jewelry missing. Naturally, there is more than meets the eye. Expect the kind of pathos-tugging comedy Schur is best appreciated for, alongside some of Schur-world’s favorites: Danson, as well as Stephanie Beatriz. Also starring Mary Elizabeth Ellis and Stephen McKinley Henderson, this series will stream in full November 21.
