Netflix is working overtime this week. Although June may be halfway over, the streaming giant is proving that it has no plans to slow down on making new additions. Beginning on Monday and continuing through Friday, Netflix will add 27 new titles to the streaming library, and all but five of them are Netflix original series, films, and documentaries.
The new additions began arriving in the content catalog on Monday, when Netflix dropped titles including Pete Davidson Presents: The Best Friends and two new additions to the Charlie’s Colorforms City library. However, there are still nearly two dozen other titles still to be added. Subscribers can expect to see additions like new episodes of Rhythm + Flow France, a new season of Love & Anarchy, and the premiere of the new Netflix original documentary Web of Make Believe: Death, Lies and the Internet, among many others. This week will also include two highly-anticipated arrivals: the debut of the streamer’s star-studded film Spiderhead and the premiere of Netflix’s new Iron Chef spinoff series, Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend.
