Inspired by Ron and Judi Barrett's beloved children's book of the same name, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs follows inventor Flint Lockwood (voice of Bill Hader) and a brainy weathergirl (voice of Anna Faris) as they attempt to discover why the rain in their small town has stopped, and food is falling in its place. Meanwhile, lifelong bully Brent (voice of Andy Samberg) relishes in tormenting Flint like he did when they were kids, and Mayor Shelbourne (voice of Bruce Campbell) schemes to use Flint's latest invention -- a device designed to improve everyone's lives -- for his own personal gain. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

5. QUEER EYE


Queer Eye is back! Queer Eye is back! Season 5 is here, and full of more inspirational makeovers and questionable home renovations. I’m not crying already, you’re crying already.

Space Force, the latest show from Steve Carell and The Office creator Greg Daniels, landed on Netflix with maximum fanfare. The show was highly anticipated by nostalgic sitcom fans hoping for some escapism. 

2. 365 DAYS

This erotic Polish romance drama from directors Barbara Bialowas and Tomasz Mandes has skyrocketed out of nowhere to the top of the Netflix top 10 because, uh, well, sex? The plot revolves around Massimo, a member of the Sicilian mafia, who on one ill-fated day becomes so distracted by a beautiful woman that he misses an assassin taking out his father. The tragedy leaves Massimo infatuated with the woman, to the point where he kidnaps her, giving her 365 days to fall in love with him. Yikes! The movie’s softcore sex scenes are such a goof that teens are lampooning the movie on TikTok, and in turn, the movie is riding high on the streaming charts.

1. 13 REASONS WHY

After courting more controversy than the creators could have bargained for, the Netflix teen drama wraps up with a fourth and final season. Need a reason why it’s gone on for so long? In season 4, the characters do their best to move on from the events of the second and third seasons— the trauma of one student’s murder, an attempted school shooting, and a character’s involvement with a Mexican crime cartel — as they get ready to graduate.
