Created by Haley Z. Boston (*Brand New Cherry Flavor*) and executive produced by *Stranger Things* creators the Duffer Brothers, the eight-episode miniseries is now streaming on Netflix. It premiered March 26 and pulled in 28.3 million hours viewed in its first week, [according to Netflix](https://www.netflix.com/tudum/top10/tv?week=2026-03-29). It’s remained in Netflix’s top 10 series globally every week since its release, although as of this writing, it no longer appears on Netflix’s top 10 TV shows carousel.
The series follows engaged couple Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone) and Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco) in the week leading up to their wedding at Nicky’s parents’ remote cabin. As their special day approaches, Rachel can’t shake the feeling that — you guessed it — something very bad is going to happen. (Maybe the remote cabin should have been the first red flag.)
Based on Nicky’s off-putting family, you may expect that “something very bad” to look like something out of *Ready or Not*, where a filthy rich family turns on their newest addition. But *Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen* takes a different turn, looping in strange curses and family trauma to examine anxieties around marriage and finding the perfect soulmate.
The carnage that follows certainly lives up to the show’s title, creating one of the most engrossing Netflix binges of 2026.
