Netflix Inc. has another month packed with new offerings this August, but the two biggest additions ended their critically acclaimed runs almost a decade ago.
Those would be all seven seasons of “30 Rock,” the brilliantly madcap sitcom starring Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin and Tracy Morgan, as well as all five seasons of “Friday Night Lights.” the high school football drama that’s about so much more than just high school football, starring Kyle Chandler, Connie Britton and Zach Gilford. Both binge-worthy favorites will stream starting Aug. 1.
Netflix
NFLX,
has a promising slate of movies on tap as well, including “The Kissing Booth 3” (Aug. 11), the third and final installment of the popular teen romance starring Joey King; “Beckett” (Aug. 13), a thriller starring John David Washington as an American tourist in Greece who gets caught up in a deadly conspiracy; “Sweet Girl” (Aug. 23), a “Taken”-like action thriller starring Jason Momoa; and “He’s All That” (Aug. 27), a gender-flipped reboot of the ’90s teen rom-com “She’s All That,” as an influencer (Addison Rae) is tasked with turning a loser (Tanner Buchanan) into the prom king.
