This year there’s really out here already trying to tell us August, huh? If you’re anything like me, you’ve already binged your way through the second season of The Umbrella Academy (maybe more than once, who needs to say it?) and you’re looking for a new series to sink your teeth into this month. Fortunately, the Netflix content engine can not stop, will not stop offering valuable new shows, which is very graceful as so many of us suddenly find ourselves at home all the time.

And as you might expect, there is something for everyone. If you were one of the millions who were attracted Avatar: The Last Airbender over the summer you can look forward to the arrival of the sequel The Legend of Korra in August.
