Just in time for anyone who hates cool weather, Pumpkin Spice everything and warm sweaters, is a list of what Netflix has on tap for your moving towards the end of 2017. While there’s a hell of a lot of movies that will be showing up, it’s the Netflix Originals and tv shows/miniseries that are capturing our attention.
So whether your waiting to watch The Punisher kick some ass or want to know what else is going down in the Upside Down, 2017 has got you covered. I’m probably going to just stay home from this point onwards, work a new groove in my couch and say goodbye to my family until Christmas.
I may or may not miss you all. If 2018 rolls around and you haven’t seen me, send a pizza, some beer and maybe an ambulance.
