This weekend, the month of February is coming to a close, and Netflix is sending it off with a few last-minute additions to the streaming library. Beginning on Friday, the streamer’s ever-expanding content catalog will grow with the addition of six new titles, with Netflix keeping an equal balance this week between originals and licensed content.

As the streaming giant prepares to drop dozens of new titles on Monday to mark the start of March, it’s worth looking back on what was added throughout February. While the month proved to be big for licensed content – Netflix added everything from Eat Pray Love to Inception to National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation – the streamer also heavily relied on its original programming. February drew up plenty of laughs thanks to additions like Season 2 of Tiffany Haddish Presents: They Ready. The streamer also treated book fans to its adaptation of Kristin Hannah’s novel Firefly Lane. Netflix veered back into the true crime lane with the debut of Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel, a true crime anthology series that will explore other locales. Given that February includes Valentine’s Day, it came as little surprise that the streamer doubled down on the romance, even debuting the final installment of the To All the Boys franchise.

‘Bigfoot Family’

One of the most legendary folklore creatures has gone missing in Netflix’s latest family series, Bigfoot Family. Set to be available for streaming Friday, Feb. 26, the animated comedy-drama is set in a world where Bigfoot is not a legend, but rather a big deal. When he suddenly goes missing, however, his shy but tech-savvy teen son must take on an evil CEO to save his family and a wildlife preserve.

‘Crazy About Her’

Netflix will be doubling down on romance this weekend, also debuting the film Crazy About Her. The Spanish romcom Adri, who falls head over heels for Carla following a wild night together. Adri comes to realize, however, that the only way he will ever see Carla again is by becoming a patient at the psychiatric center where she resides.

What else is being added this weekend?

While in recent years Netflix has made a massive push to produce original content, it’s monthly additions aren’t exclusively the streamer’s own programming.
