Before I sleep, you know that I’m on my laptop to watch something on Netflix. This could not be more true nowadays. I may not be able to sleep early, but I’m always right on schedule when it comes to starting or continuing my latest Netflix obsession. I indulge on my own, but I also catch something with my kids.
The current line-up for summer provides something for everyone. They started Apr.1 strong with ‘Community’ and adding more films under their Studio Ghibli line up. Of course, don’t forget how they got some new ‘Money Heist’!
As we’re looking at a home quarantine schedule that will last till the end of the month, here are the top picks I’ll be tuning into Netflix with their debut dates.
