Netflix this week (September 1-7) plans to add 36 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup, including five originals. (Note: Netflix labels a show an ‘original’ even if it first airs in another country, but airs first on Netflix in the United States.)
The new titles will include The Spy, a Netflix original drama starring Sacha Baron Cohen in the real-life story of a 1960s Israeli secret agent. The six-episode show marks a rare departure from comedy for Cohen whose work includes such farces as the Ali G series on HBO, and the movie, Borat.
