Some of the most notable additions include Bunk’d, a rare Disney Channel series not on Disney Plus, new anime series Great Pretender, horror 1BR and two very different movies starring Salma Hayek – comedy Drunk Parents, co-starring Alec Baldwin, and Septembers of Shiraz, a drama about a Jewish family who have to leave Iran during the revolution, also featuring Adrien Brody.

The biggest release of the week, though, has to be Lucifer season 5, or at least the first eight episodes of it. Season 4 landed way back in May 2019, so it’s been a tough wait for fans of the DC supernatural series. At least we know that there’s both season 5B and a sixth and final season to come after this. The Devil’s not done yet, folks.

Tell us, how many of these latest Netflix additions have you caught over the past week and which one do you want to check out that you haven’t already? Let us know in the comments below.
