Pictures via Netflix and Disney
Another week of new Netflix releases awaits! Below, we’ll dive into all the new movies and shows set to arrive throughout this week, including a new mystery series starring Will Forte and a classic sitcom that sees all 100-plus episodes drop.
For your full look at what’s still set to come to Netflix throughout the remainder of May 2024, keep it locked here on What’s on Netflix plus we’ve also started listing all the June 2024 arrivals here.
Quick note: Sorry for a very belated coming soon post today. It’s a bank holiday here in the United Kingdom, and for once, I decided to take it off (well, at least the day!).
This Week’s New Netflix Highlights
Reba (Season 1-6)
Coming to Netflix: Monday
Picture: Disney
Another of the 14 Disney-owned series announced to be coming to Netflix throughout 2024 and 2025 dropped today: Reba, the classic sitcom that aired on The WB way back when.
Created by Allison M. Gibson and headlined by Reba McEntire, the series follows middle-aged wife and mother Reba, who has her entire life flipped upside down when her husband of 20 years files for divorce.
Bodkin (Season 1) Netflix Original
Coming to Netflix: Thursday
A new dark comedy thriller starring Will Forte is streaming on Netflix through the Obamas’ production company this week.
Per Netflix, here’s what you can expect:
“A motley crew of podcasters who sets out to investigate the mysterious disappearance of three strangers in an idyllic, coastal Irish town. Once they start pulling at threads, they discover a story much bigger and weirder than they could have ever imagined.”
The show was aptly described in the YouTube comments for the trailer, with FatNorthernBigot describing the series as “Wicker Man meets Father Ted,” and to be fair, that’s not far off…
Kevin Hart: The Kennedy Center Mark Twain Prize for American Humor
Coming to Netflix: Saturday
If you love Kevin Hart, you’ll get a double dose of him this week. Firstly, we just appeared in The Roast of Tom Brady, which was live on Netflix on Sunday night, and he, by far and away, was the best roaster on stage. As mentioned during that roast too, Kevin Hart will be honored this coming weekend by receiving the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
It’s going to be a star-studded affair with special guests, including Dave Burd AKA “Lil Dicky,” Dave Chappelle, Jimmy Fallon, Tiffany Haddish, Regina Hall, Chelsea Handler, Plastic Cup Boyz, Keith Robinson, Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, J.B. Smoove, Jimmy Fallon, and Robin Thicke.
