2024 will go down as the year that Netflix made its big contribution to sports. This was the special house for “Disgusting-but-can't-ignore” hot dog eating contest Between Joey Chestnut and his rival Takeru Kobayashi. The streamer also broadcast mike tyson vs jake paul boxing match This would have been extremely boring if there wasn't a women's killer match right before the main event. Then there are also the million-dollar deals made by Netflix WWE And nfl To bring even more live sports to the platform.
Thankfully, Netflix has also added a large amount of original programming, movies, TV shows, anime, and documentaries that will be much easier to watch. Here's a list of the best Netflix shows and movies to watch if you can never get past the buffering icon.
day and day
It's hard to recommend anime these days, especially for people who want to get into the genre. Many shows are also easily available Weird, We would say, to recommend to the average person. day and day…doesn't fix this problem at all. This goes beyond weirdness quite strange area, including ghosts, magic, alien abduction and penis abduction, all covered in the first 25-minute episode – and it Rule. despite this day and day It's about the supernatural conspiracies that occur when a girl (who believes in ghosts but not aliens) befriends a boy (who believes in aliens but not ghosts), it's really is a true romance anime. it's too much fun Watching the two main characters grapple with their growing affection for each other, which you don't mind (or in fact, you're happy with) trumps the turbo erotic weirdness of virtually everything else in the show.
of difference
tagline for of difference season 2 Must be “Everyone is really, In fact Bad at it.” Bad at communication, bad at relationships, and definitely bad at avoiding civil war. Season 2 picks up right after the events of the first, with everyone dealing with the consequences of Jinx's attack on the council of Piltover. What happens is that the events of this season are missing from the headlines, regarding whether or not such a conflict can be resolved peacefully. There were some great emotional moments between Joe and his girlfriend Caitlin, but I didn't feel much connection with most of the main cast. Still, Netflix and Riot told a pretty good, well-rounded story across two seasons, filled with superslick fight sequences. Which was more than just my dislike for artists.
The Great British Baking Show
I thought I'd caveat this recommendation by saying “I know this show comes up on this list every year.” But I was surprised to know that The Great British Baking Show never displayed The Verge“Best of” lists. And to that, I say… all my coworkers are demon, The Great British Baking Show It is the best annual competition show since Eurovision. Every year, Britain manages to find the 12 healthiest humans to compete in a series of challenges cooking delicious-looking foods that most Americans have never heard of. after Year Even after watching this show, I still can't explain what a pudding is, but I'll be damned if I don't cheer on these amazing and talented people every week.
Interview with the Vampire
Yes, technically this show will come in 2022 Interviewfirst season of Debuted on Netflix this yearTo expose it to a much wider audience. This television adaptation adds some interesting updates and twists to Anne Rice's 1976 novel. The main character, Louis de Point du Lac (Jacob Anderson), is no longer a white slave owner, but a black man wandering around 1910s Louisiana. There, she meets the mysterious Lestat de Lioncourt (Sam Reed), and the two begin a torrid affair, heightened by the racial tensions of the time and the fact that Lestat is an extremely eccentric and dramatic Frenchman. Is… who is also a vampire. Interview with the Vampire This is easily the best drama television show to be enjoyed in rare broadcasts separation And inheritanceThis is definitely the best acted out show on television with incredibly touching performances from Reed, Anderson, Bailey Bass, Eric Bogosian, and more.
godzilla minus one
This is another “come out in another year” But it debuted on Netflix this year” Recommendation. This is one of the few Godzilla Movies are guaranteed to make you sob like a baby. If there is a list of superlatives, This movie is going on, minus one is a retelling of Godzilla's first appearance in Japan shortly after the end of World War II. Most of the film's runtime barely features Godzilla, instead focusing on the struggles of his human victims. This choice increases Godzilla's impact when he finally appears. And when he does that, it doesn't matter whether you're watching it with theater-quality sound or just your TV's speakers, you'll feel the needle drop. Akira Ifukube's iconic theme song In your liver. It is very cold.
Cooking Class War
Netflix is importing a huge number of shows from Asia, which is great for satisfying my historical drama habit twin And Princess WeiyoungBut I have learned that some reality shows are also very good Physical: 100 And Cooking Class WarIn Cooking Class War, A group of up-and-coming chefs (designated as the Black Spoon), compete against Korea's elite culinary experts (the White Spoon). The Black Spoon are known only by a nickname that describes their skills and achievements and if they can conquer the White Spoon they will earn the right to have their real name known (and a large cash prize). Black Spoons are the real underdogs, known by nicknames like Comic Book Chef, a person who uses recipes learned from manga, or Master of School Meals, an older woman who spent decades running school cafeterias. I love it when they overcome obstacles and defeat White Spoon.
