TV saw returning hits like Black Mirror, the end of the Netflix Marvel-verse, breakout newcomers like Russian Doll and When They See Us, the farewell of one of TV’s best horror comedies in Santa Clarita Diet Season 3, the bewildering return of The OA, animated wins (Love, Death and Robots and She-Ra, among them,) laugh-a-minute sketch comedy (I Think You Should Leave,) and pretty much everything in between.
If you’re in more of a movie mood, Netflix’s newest original films include everything from the A-list thrills of Triple Frontier to festival breakouts like The Perfection, a new Soderbergh film, and more of the streaming service’s in-house romantic comedies (including that viral Keanu Reeves moment from Always Be My Maybe) for some lighter fare.
