What’s Coming to Netflix in May 2020

You’re already done with season 3 of Ozark and bored out of your mind. The great news is that Netflix already knows and is releasing a TON of content.

Remember Bandersnatch, the sci-fi choose-your-own-adventure-with-your-remote and first-of-its-kind Netflix show? Well, you can choose another adventure with Kimmy Schmidt and Titus this month, so get your fanciest feather boa, your backpack filled with cash, and all your Columbia House cassette tapes because this ish is going down.

Without further chit-chat, here’s what’s coming to Netflix in May 2020.
