We’re pretty sure that there’s nothing Netflix has been dreading more than turning the calendar into November.
With the imminent arrival of Disney Plus in just a couple of weeks – which will make available, for a relatively small fee, the entirety of the House of Mouse vault, as well as a vast assortment of new material – the pioneer streaming service is surely shaking in its boots.
To counteract, and hopefully send a little bit of the entertainment excitement their way, Netflix dropped a “What to Watch” trailer online late last week. The eight-minute video consists of footage from just about every original show, movie, documentary, and standup special coming to the service next month. Be sure to check out the whole thing for yourself up above.
But if you don’t have time for that, I quickly scribbled all the titles that appeared in the seven (count ’em, SEVEN) sections featured in the trailer. So please, validate my effort and take a gander down at the list below.

- The Irishman
- The King
- The Crown: Season 3

If I’m going to be honest, there’s only a small handful of things that I’m looking forward to on this list – The Irishman, The End of the F***ing World, and maybe The King? Of course, there’ll no doubt be more to come in December and into early 2020, but perhaps Netflix just needs to come to terms with the fact that it cannot compete with the conglomerate that is Disney.
