In the wake of popular movie releases such as “Paddington in Peru” and “Nonnas”, Netflix is getting ready for another exciting week ahead. The streaming service has scheduled new arrivals for almost every day over the next six days, offering a mix of original shows, movies, and stand-up comedy specials. There’s plenty to anticipate this week, with the most significant additions being held back for the latter half.
