After ringing in the new year with a long list of fresh titles, Netflix is tapping the breaks just the slightest as it welcomes another weekend in January 2022. This weekend, the streaming giant is set to expand its content catalogue by just two titles, both Netflix originals. The new additions will not be marked with any titles exiting the streaming library.
Although this weekend’s additions are light, Netflix has already padded its library with dozens of additions in 2022. As the clock struck midnight on New Year’s, the streamer kicked off 2022 by adding dozens of new titles to its library, among them being everything from Happy Feet to Midnight in Paris to The NeverEnding Story, and both 2005’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and 1971’s Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Netflix is set to keep that momentum going throughout the rest of the month, which will see the additions of Netflix originals including the first part of the fourth and final season of Ozark to Queer Eye star Jonathan Van Ness’ new series Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness.
