American Vandal (Season 2)

For a TV show that just had its first season run, Netflix’s American Vandal received very positive feedback due to its humorous delivery and and thought-provoking plot. Season 2 is coming out in this September, and it was revealed that these new episodes will take a darker turn, focusing on the negative impact of technology and how it would lead to the exhaustion and isolation of modern America’s teenagers.

The Good Cop

A lot of TV shows are landing on Netflix in 2018, and “The Good Cop” is added to the mix.
