Even though our hearts belong outdoors for the rest of our sunny days—from long evenings, drinking our favorite cocktails on the patio to spontaneous mini trips and backyard BBQs—a good Netflix and chill night never hurt anyone. Sometimes, after a jam-packed week of summer fun, what you really need is to hit pause, escape the heat, and simply recharge. And there’s no better way to do that than by curling up on the couch, especially with all the goodies our favorite streaming platform is bringing this month! With a whole host of binge-worthy series, gripping dramas, and feel-good films dropping, Netflix is giving us the perfect, guilt-free excuse to trade our sandals for slippers and our summer cocktails for a fresh bowl of popcorn. And even though Netflix documentaries keep us home, the new releases are the ideal way to enjoy a change of pace and dive into some seriously good entertainment.
