We’ve already told you about all the exciting new titles coming to Netflix this month, but with that good news also comes bad: Some beloved projects are leaving the service throughout the month. You never know when something might pop up on streaming again (or which of the many services it’ll go to next), so the next few weeks could be your last opportunity for a while to check out some of these fantastic movies and television series.
We’ve got your comprehensive guide to everything that’s dropping off Netflix’s collection this month, including a few highlights that we definitely recommend seeing before they’re gone.
