Netflix Is Adding 24 New Movies TV Shows This Week

Get the Full StoryThe latest star studded original movie from Netflix has unsurprisingly been dominating the most-watched list, despite Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer s Thunder Force being widely dismissed by critics and positively roasted by subscribers. When you ve got a customer base of over 200 million and some of Hollywood s biggest names churning out a steady stream of in-house content, reviews are arguably less important than ever these days in the streaming wars, but it ll be interesting to see if the company releases viewing numbers for the panned superhero effort.

Of course, there s every chance Thunder Force could be completely forgotten about by this time next week, even if the 24 new additions to the film and television library coming over the next seven days doesn t contain many titles that could be deemed as must-see. The biggest of the bunch is arguably Jamie Foxx s sitcom Dad Stop Embarrassing Me!, which marks the Academy Award winner s return to small screen comedy for the first time in 20 years, and it s just one of many projects he s got lined up at Netflix including sci-fi comedy They Cloned Tyrone, vampiric actioner Day Shift and any potential Project Power sequels.

There s a few well-regarded established titles on the way along with the typical blend of original movies, family films, documentaries and animated favorites, which you can check out below.
