It’s Friday, which means you’ve gotta get down if you’re listening to Rebecca Black. If you need a break from this stressful week, we have you covered. In addition to Decider’s What To Watch recommendations for this Friday, we’ve got what’s new on streaming tonight.
So what do you need to watch? Whether you’re you’re in the mood for a comedy or a dramatic thriller, Netflix is your boo. The Will Ferrell classic Talladega Nights has just been added to the platform. Also new to the streaming service is David Fincher‘s newest series, Mindhunter. Starring Jonathan Groff, the Netlfix original examines what it looks like to be inside the mind of a serial killer. It’s more academic than you would think but still just as disturbing.
If neither of those options pique your interest, you have a lot more shows and movies to choose from. Here’s what’s new on streaming this evening.
