Cancel Your Weekend Plans: Netflix Shows Are Cool Again


Netflix is adding some great original content tonight, including the highly anticipated second season of Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina. There’s also the star-studded drama Unicorn Store, the historical epic Roman Empire: Caligula and a spiritual successor to David Attenborough’s Planet Earth series; Our Planet. (And that’s just the cream of the crop!)

Truly, your main conundrum this Friday night will be deciding which show to watch first – do you catch up with Sabrina and the gang at Gravestone Heights? Or indulge your senses in the amazing nature documentary Our Planet? Or perhaps you’re keen to see more of Brie Larson in Unicorn Store alongside her Captain Marvel co-star Samuel L. Jackson?

They all drop tonight, alongside plenty of others. (History buffs and pervos will probably want to check out the Caligula biopic too.) Read on for everything coming to the service for the weekend of April 5 to April 7.

It’s happened to the past few seasons, with top-secret scripts and even entire episodes appearing online before the maiden broadcast.

To quote an older genre TV show: all this has happened before and all this will happen again. But as we enter Game Of Thrones’ final season, it’s more imperative than ever to avoid the leaks.”]
