April showers bring May flowers, and April content contracts bring May content to Netflix. (I know, it doesn’t rhyme. You try rhyming at 6:30 in the morning on just one cup of coffee.)
New content on its way to Netflix in May include Netflix originals “Dear White People” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.” Plus, movie lovers can enjoy “Amelie,” “Mamma Mia!” or “Coco.”
Meanwhile, as usual, some movies and television shows will be leaving the service in May, with “Bridget Jones’s Diary,” “Ocean’s Eleven” and “GoodFellas” among the popular movies taking it on the lam in May.
