If you’ve already watched the Best 25 Best Shows on Netflix, powered through the Next 25 Best TV Shows on Netflix, and got caught up on this week’s best new movies on Netflix, we now have even more Netflix options for you. Here’s all the recently released seasons of television on Netflix, plus upcoming expirations and Netflix TV news.
Pick of the Week
Criminal Minds, Seasons 1-6 — This one is a Netflix exclusive, and therefore the only streaming service you can watch that CBS procedural during its good seasons (I assume) when it had Mandy Patinkin and Paget Brewster. Also, Greg from Dharma & Greg is in this one, about the professional and personal lives of a “group of extraordinary FBI profilers who spend their days getting into the minds of dangerous and psychopathic criminals — and their nights trying to forget!” I can’t say I’ve ever watched it, but my wife — who usually only watches stuffy British dramas — got hooked on a syndication run and watched it every night for about a month, but then the nightmares got too intense for her and she quit (she traumatizes easily).
Netflix News of Note — The only real Netflix news of note this week was its decision to step up its game in stand-up specials, as the service will air specials from Bill Cosby, Bill Burr, Chelsea Handler, and Chelsea Peretti.
Expiring Soon — McLeod’s Daughters, whatever that is, and The Defenders.
The Rest of Netflix’s Recent Releases
From Dusk Till Dawn, Season 1 — I watched the pilot of the series based on the Robert Rodriguez movie, and it wasn’t bad. But it also wasn’t good enough to continue investing scarCe television time in. But, if you really, really liked From Dusk Till Dawn, and you’re a Robert Rodriguez completist, check it out. Don Johnson and Wilmer Valderrama are in it. That’s something!
