Here’s Everything New On Netflix This Week, Including ‘Self Made’ And ‘Tiger King’

Netflix has delivered unto us a slight miracle this week, as we all go a little insane while self-quarantining. The streaming platform is giving us a handful of new shows to keep us entertained. Octavia Spencer stars in the inspiring true story of America’s first self-made African-American billionaire while a young adult series set in medieval times will keep the kids entertained. And if you’re craving a bit of weird, check out the true-crime docuseries that Netflix just dropped.

Here’s everything coming to (and leaving) Netflix this week of March 20.

Octavia Spencer stars in this historical drama series about Madam C.J. Walker, the first African-American self-made billionaire who battled racism and sexism to climb to the top of America’s class hierarchy. Spencer’s Walker journeys from a poor washerwoman to an inventive entrepreneur as she builds a beauty empire for women of color who didn’t feel seen by society at the time. If you need a bit of real-life grind inspiration, this is a must-watch.

Based on a popular Dutch novel, this teen adventure series follows a young squire played by His Dark Materials breakout Amir Wilson, who is tasked with delivering an important letter to a king thousands of miles away. He recruits some allies to help him fight thieves, sorcerers, and the like but he quickly finds himself at the center of a power-play that could change the fate of the kingdom.

This seven-part true crime doc is the perfect answer to the question we’ve all been asking since the coronavirus struck: What should I watch Cults, queer romance, exotic cats — this docuseries has it all and the fact that the story that fuels it, one of a gay, gun-loving conman running an exotic zoo out of his home in Oklahoma, is true only makes things more bizarre.
