The Sandman sits at No. 2 after dropping a surprise episode
Look what Mr. Sandman brought us today. The Sandman just dropped a surprise bonus episode on Netflix, which could be enough to push the show back into the No. 1 spot on Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows list over the weekend. For now, it's at No. 2 (nothing to lose sleep over!) behind Never Have I Ever. The only new show on the list is High Heat, a telenovela about a man who becomes a firefighter to avenge his brother's death. That's telenovela bingo right there. Over on the movies list, a documentary called Inside the Mind of a Cat debuts at No. 8. It sounds like a 30 Rock gag, but it's real, and it's pretty interesting if you want to know what your cat really thinks of you.
But popular doesn't necessarily mean good. Below, we list the top 10 movies and shows on Netflix and give our quick take on whether they're actually worth watching or not. We've also added what's new on Netflix today so you can find out what will be on the Top 10 list tomorrow. If you're looking for more Netflix recommendations, we've compiled the best movies on Netflix and the best TV shows on Netflix.
