The month of October is on the horizon and Netflix has a great line-up cooked up as usual for all of us to indulge in. The streaming giant will be taking us on many adventures and it’s best to be seated to be fully ready for the ride. The journey starts 930 years into the future with the new season of Star Trek, as together with the crew we go where no one has gone before. Next up we visit the second addition of The haunting anthology series, The Haunting of Bly Manor, where we may need to fasten our seatbelts a little tighter. To round up this particular journey we join Phil Rosenthal who will be taking us on a goodwill eating tour of the world with Season 4 of Somebody Feed Phil.
It doesn’t quite end there though, see below for our picks for the rest of the month:
