Welcome to your month end summary of what’s been added to Netflix throughout the month of April 2017. Although we had plenty of notice, quite a few significant titles were lost including much of the FOX library in April.
We saw plenty of new debuts in April too with two controversial new series which we’ll cover in the highlights shortly. We’ll then do a bit of number crunching and then give you the full recap of all the titles added to Netflix US in April.
Highlights
Kicking off with the two controversial Netflix Originals, the first to arrive was Girlboss. Based on the autobiography of the entrepreneur Sophia Amoruso it tells the startup story of Nasty Gal, an internationally recognized fashion brand. It’s controversial in the sense that Nasty Gal has since gone bankrupt. We then get the most controversial show ever in the form of Dear White People, although it’s mostly misplaced controversy. The end result is a funny and satirical comedy that’s super relevant in the 21st century.
Louis CK made his Netflix debut with a Netflix Original special which is among the very best Netflix has to offer. Disney’s contract rolls on with the later than first scheduled arrival of The BFG, the modern retelling of the classic Roald Dahl book. We also got the recent outing of Bridget Jones which was a welcome surprise when it was added to Netflix last week.
Statistics
This month: 133 new movies were added to Netflix US and 118 new TV series/documentaries.
