This is a damn good month for Netflix. We’re getting a lot of promising new shows, plus some classic movies. Sadly, we must bid adieu to some old favourites.
Note: This list refers to the US version of Netflix. It has a different library to Australia which changes from month to month. This information is only relevant to readers who access US Netflix using a VPN. Our roundup of new Netflix Australia content will be appearing soon.
Highlights
Shows
This month Netflix gets Call the Midwife series 7 (“series,” that’s so British!) and American Horror Story: Cult. But the real action is in originals:
Along with the American Vandal sequel, you’re getting more Bojack Horseman, and the new show Sierra Burgess Is A Loser starring Barb from Stranger Things. Brilliant.
There’s also the new miniseries Maniac (starring Emma Stone and Jonah Hill), Atypical season 2, Chef’s Table Volume 5, and season 2 of the Reboot reboot, Reboot: The Guardian Code. Iron Fist is back for some reason. And Norm Macdonald has a show called Norm Macdonald has a Show.
Movies
Just in time for the death of Moviepass, every good movie comes to Netflix! Black Panther, Groundhog Day, Scarface, Bruce Almighty, The Breakfast Club, The Cider House Rules, Lilo & Stitch, The Emperor’s New Groove, Role Models, Scott Pilgrim vs. the World, The VVitch, and Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl (that’s the first one, the good one).
Watch those Disney movies while you can, before Netflix’s contract runs out and Disney launches its own streaming service and you have the pleasure of paying another monthly TV bill!
Lots of new Netflix movies this month too, including manga/anime adaptation Bleach, cartoon Next Gen, and Nappily Ever After. There’s also something called, amazingly, The Most Assassinated Woman in the World.
Comedy Specials
Lighter showing than usual: two new specials from D.L. Hughley and Daniel Sloss. But you’ve got that Norm show, and season 2 of Jack Whitehall’s Travels With My Father.
Last Call
We’re losing Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, The Descent, Dead Poets Society, Ghostbusters, and one of the other Pirates movies. And I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry is finally out of the house. Not losing many TV shows this month.
