New on Netflix: April 2020 Releases

You’ve probably heard the news that we’re all gonna be indoors for a little while. There’s no way around that and it sucks to hear. It also makes the usual entertainment stuff each month seem just a little more poignant. While Netflix reveals its new releases each month as a matter of course, the Netflix new releases for April 2020 obviously have some added import.

Thankfully it looks like Netflix is going to ease our social isolation with some easy-watching originals, and a handful of fun original and existing movie options. There isn’t a Stranger Things-like Netflix juggernaut on the schedule for April but there are excellent, bingeable shows like Nailed It! (April 1), The Innocence Files (April 15), and Kenya Barris’s first Netflix offering #blackAF (April 17).

Things are little more lively on the film side with Netflix originals arriving like the Ed Helms-starring Coffee & Kareem (April 3) and the Chris Hemsworth-starring Extraction (April 24). All of Community (seasons 1-6) and the full Lethal Weapon suite come to Netflix on April 1 as well for supreme bingeing.

All in all it’s a good start for a time in which we could use some entertainment.
