July is officially here, and this week, Netflix is dropping 15 new titles that are perfect to relax to following those July 4th cookouts. After kicking off the month over the weekend with a round of additions that included fan favorites like Star Trek and Titanic, the streamer is wasting no time in packing its content catalog with fresh TV series and movies.
Along with a single licensed title, Volume 3 of Little Angel, this week’s roundup includes 14 new and returning Netflix original series and films, such as the new original documentary Unknown: The Lost Pyramid, which dropped on Monday. The streamer will serve up plenty of laughs on Independence Day when Tom Segura hits Netflix with his latest comedy special, Tom Segura: Sledgehammer. Later in the week, the streamer will stock things like the original anime My Happy Marriage, the documentary WHAM!, and perhaps most-anticipated, the first episodes of The Lincoln Lawyer Season 2.
