‘Unsolved Mysteries: Volume 2’
After making its debut on the streamer back in June, Unsolved Mysteries is returning with six all-new episodes on Monday, Oct. 19. Featuring one case per episode, with stories rooted in the experiences of ordinary people who have lived the unthinkable, Volume 2 will profile more unexplained disappearances, tragic events, and bizarre occurrences with the assistance of detectives, journalists, and family members.
Unsolved Mysteries originally debuted on NBC in 1987 before an eventual move to CBS. The true-crime series ended in 2002 before a brief revival from 2008 to 2010. In January of 2019, however, Netflix confirmed that it was bringing the series back to life with executive producer Shawn Levy.
‘The Magic School Bus Rides Again The Frizz Connection’
Class is back in action for Ms. Frizzle and the kids when Netflix debuts its newest Netflix Family addition, The Magic School Bus Rides Again The Frizz Connection. The newest addition to the beloved children’s franchise will find the class being scattered across the globe with different versions of Ms. Frizzle aboard each bus after lightning splits the Magic School Bus into three pieces. The Magic School Bus Rides Again The Frizz Connection is set to be added to the streaming library on Tuesday, Oct. 20.
