For as welcome as Netflix’s April 2021 additions are, they do come at a cost. The streaming service will get a jump on its spring cleaning by cutting quite a few TV shows and movies loose.
Honey: Rise up and Dance ushers in this media purge, with Backfire, Time Trap, season 9 of Married at First Sight, and season 1 of Surviving R. Kelly Part II: The Reckoning following suit. Antidote, Eddie Murphy: Delirious, The New Romantic, Once Upon a Time in London, Thor: Tales of Asgard, and Cirque du Freak: The Vampire’s Assistant all leave throughout the first half of the month.
The waning days of April only continue the trend — letting go of The Vatican Tapes Carol, The Last Resort, seasons 1 through 3 of The Great British Baking Show: Masterclass, and seasons 1 through 4 of Liv and Maddie, as well as Mirror Mirror, Django Unchained, The Sapphires, The Car Doom, and Paul Blart: Mall Cop. April 30 brings with it the biggest wave, bidding adieu to Palm Trees in the Snow, Waiting, Snowpiercer, How to Be a Latin Lover, Blackfish, Den of Thieves, all three seasons of Kingdom, The Green Hornet, Jumping the Broom, Knock Knock, Platoon, The Indian in the Cupboard, Runaway Bride, 17 Again, Can’t Hardly Wait, I Am Legend, Saving Private Ryan, and finally, Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.
If any of these titles are on your watchlist, now’s the time to give them a watch.
