We all have best friends (if you don’t, we’ll be yours) but Netflix has been the greatest friend to most of us this summer. Streaming on TVs, laptops and even phones, our favorite shows, movies and documentaries have been on replay helping us pass time while we’re waiting for post corona days to grace us with their presence. But for now, we are Netflix and chillin’ alone. Here is a list of must watch shows this summer!
The Last Dance
An EPSN docu-series that documents the rise of Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, as well as the popularity of the NBA during the 1990s. This limited series focuses around the career of Michael Jordan, with particular focus on his last season with the Chicago Bulls. It also features more than 500 hours of never-before-seen footage from the team’s championship run in the 1997–98 season, along with commentary from dozens of other sports stars. You do not want to miss this!
The Rain
Season three of The Rain is set to premiere in August on Netflix. The Danish series is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi drama that has earned a global following. It is based around a viral infection that is transported by rainfall (hence, the name) and causes the near extinction of the human population.
Selling Sunset
As the drama unfolds, and even bigger real estate deals are closed, season three is back to give us more. This August, Selling Sunset is giving us the latest group of binge-able reality TV. If you haven’t watched this real estate based, reality TV show then you have got yourself three seasons worth of watch time. Think the Kardashians meet HGTV.
The Umbrella Academy
The long-awaited second season of the superhero series has also come to Netflix this summer. Revolving around a dysfunctional family with adopted sibling superheroes who reunite to solve questions around the mystery of their father’s death are met with the threat of an impending apocalypse. We might not be superheros, but we still want to know what these ones get up to this season.
Lucifer
Everybody’s favorite, a story about a demon called Lucifer who is bored from hell and returns to reside in Los Angeles and run a club. Soon, he gets involved with local police and helps them in solving tricky criminal cases. If you’re a watcher, you would know that at the end of season four, Lucifer returned to Hell to claim his throne and left his friends and loved ones behind on Earth. This new season we’ll get to find out if he’s coming back or not.
The Seven Deadly Sins
The Japanese fantasy manga series is returning for its fourth season with “Wrath of the Gods” after a three year hiatus, during which the film “Prisoners of the Sky” was released. In this series with King Arthur in hiding, will Camelot fall? Will Meliodas succumb to demon form? The Seven Deadly Sins must reunite once more to face the demon clan.
