Looking for a show with lots of seasons to dig into? If you haven’t yet tried out Peaky Blinders, then this is the prime time to with all six seasons now available on the service in all regions except the UK (they’ll get it later).

If you’ve never watched the series before, here’s what you can expect:
Genre: Drama, Horror, Mystery
Cast: Jonas Dylan Allen, Elizabeth Mitchell, Sarah Catherine Hook

With The CW’s lineup of shows coming to Netflix now dwindling, Netflix has been investing heavily to come up with replacements with this one being one of their best attempts yet with it already having a pretty active following ahead of release.
The series focuses on Juliette and Calliope who are effectively polar opposites with one being a vampire and the other a vampire hunter. Nevertheless, they fall for each other and hard.
Reviews have ultimately been mixed on the show thus far. Variety called it a “tired take” on the various genres it inhabits adding that it’s “a clumsy swing at relevance than a tale anyone can really sink their teeth into.”
Genre: Animation, Adventure, Comedy
Director: Ben Stassen, Benjamin Mousquet
Cast: Jordan Tartakow, Joe Ochman, Laila Berzins, Danny Fehsenfeld
Writer: David Collard
Runtime: 91 min
From Dark Horse Comics and nWave Pictures comes a new animated hour and a half feature film that’s not made any significant headlines so we’re happy to shine a spotlight on it here.
