Netflix Top 10 Shows and Movies: New and Trending Today, August 29

Is the new Arden Cho-led Shonda-esque lawyer drama Partner Track good? No, it's not. But it is at No. 2 on Netflix's Top 10 TV Shows list today, Monday, Aug. 29, and that's a win in itself. New on the TV chart today is Alchemy of Souls, a Korean period drama about mages and ancient spells, coming in at No. 10. Over on the movies chart, the truly abysmal Mark Wahlberg-Kevin Hart buddy comedy Me Time comes in at No. 1. It's bleak out here.
