Netflix doesn’t chill with 2016 release schedule

Netflix has become a huge player in the television industry. The US alone has 40 million Netflix subscribers, and 61% of subscribers binge watch a series every few weeks.

With so much success, it’s hard to believe that I go on Netflix after a long day and can’t find anything to watch.

Maybe I’m just picky, but luckily Netflix has a solution with an amazing lineup of shows for 2016.

Starting in February, Netflix is releasing the long awaited “Full House” reunion, “Fuller House.” The show will bring back almost all of the original cast members. Also in February, Judd Apatow’s original series “Love” will be coming out. “Love” is said to be a “down to earth look at dating” adult comedy.

March will bring season four of “House of Cards” and the second season of Marvel’s “Daredevil,” which will add The Punisher and Elektra to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In April, “That 70’s Show” stars Ashton Kutcher and Danny Masterson will be returning for the new Netflix original “The Ranch.” Also in April, the second season of “The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” will be coming out.

Lastly, season four of “Orange is the New Black” will be released on June 17, just in time for a summer binge-watching session.

As for Netflix’s upcoming content without a definitive release date, there is a lot of content to be excited for in the second half of the year. Marvel’s third superhero will be jumping into the mix with “Luke Cage,” in which Mike Colter will be reprising his “Jessica Jones” character in the title role. “Jessica Jones” will be returning for a second season as well.

“BoJack Horseman” will be getting a second season, along with “Narcos” and “Marco Polo.”

Netflix will also be releasing a television adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s “A Series of Unfortunate Events.” Rumors have surfaced that Neil Patrick Harris will take up the role of main villain Count Olaf.

A list of codes recently surfaced that you can type into Netflix for extremely detailed categories. Some of these categories include “Soccer movies” and “Deep sea horror movies.” You can find a list of some of the codes by hopping onto netflixcodes.me, but there are hundreds to view online and even more that haven’t been found yet.

With all of these options and new ways of finding new content, Netflix users should be excited that 2016 is turning out to be a truly prolific year.
