Diandra Previews What Is Coming to Netflix in May 2020 (YAY!!!!!!!!!!)
In this last month, Netflix has gained 16 million subscribers within the U.S. Just last month, they, actually, had to slow down their networks to not bombard Europe’s WiFi from the amount of content people were streaming for them. Netflix has always been the main underdog; the streaming giant many have underestimated, but has, somehow, always innovated and, now, proven its necessity as an entertainment juggernaut. Thus, GET EXCITED for the new titles, especially ORIGINALS, that are coming to make your quarantine a little less stir crazy.
