Mates, New Year’s Eve might be fast approaching, but so too is the day after: New Year’s Day. The bleary-eyed, ashy-mouthed, bone-achy first day of the year where you get to kick off the new calendar in style by whimpering on the couch binging Netflix while ruing all the celebrating you did the night before.
Fortunately for you, Netflix Australia’s got a shithot New Year’s Resolution: Massive amounts of content.
The January schedule of releases for the blessed streaming saviour is out, and they have overloaded the first day of the year with an enormous list of new titles in anticipation of mass taking-to-the-couch.
Sticking out like a 7-pronged bong-smelling sore thumb is Weeds. The whole lot. All eight seasons. All one-hundred and two episodes. Freshly wrapped, for you to enjoy.
Not keen for a marathon of endless TV eps? It is kicking the hell off on the movie front as well. Jan 1st sees the arrival of a mixture of old favourites, cult classics, genuine masterpieces, and also The Da Vinci Code.
There’s Raging Bull and Girl, Interrupted if you’re feeling particularly cinematic. Wanna indulge some nostalgia? Groundhog Day, Hook, and The Karate Kid are all there too. Want something nice and fluffy? 27 Dresses, The LEGO Batman Movie, and Big Daddy are all comin’ in hot.
But the hits aren’t confined to the 1st of the month. Elsewhere in January we’ve got the long-awaited arrival of Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee to Netflix, the entire second season of Gotham, new seasons of Grace and Frankie, Dirk Gently, and Van Helsing, new weekly episodes of Riverdale, Star Trek: Discovery, and Dynasty, and a tiny little indie film by the name of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.
Hot summer nights, my friends. Hot. Summer. Nights.
