Just like us, we know how much you love your TV. It feels like another golden age of television, and each season we’re hit by more than a dozen new shows.
All these shows; so little time. Good thing streaming services like Netflix got us covered by having us watch on our own convenience. Without it there simply wouldn’t be the infamous term “Netflix and chill.” Its arguable that Netflix might even know what we want even before we know it. With already a couple new hit original shows like 13 Reasons Why, Dear White People and Ozark, debuting earlier this year, Netflix is on a roll.
Here are twelve shows that are yet to come out this year.
