Netflix Top 10 Shows and Movies: New Releases and Trending Today, December 20

Sing 2 is back on the list

Sing 2

Sing 2

You know how I know that kids are out of school? Sing 2 is back on Netflix's Top 10 Movies list, nestled in at No. 9. It's the only new entry on the streamer's most popular movies and shows lists, which are topped by The Volcano: Rescue From Whakaari and The Recruit, respectively. In fact, Netflix's Top 10 Shows list is identical to yesterday, which makes me wonder why more people aren't watching Last Chance U: Basketball. C'mon, it's good!

But as we all know, 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.

New Netflix Shows and Movies Today - Highlights

  • A Not So Merry Christmas: A Mexican comedy film about a man who gets cursed and can only remember Christmas days. That doesn't sound too bad!
  • The Seven Deadly Sins: Grudge of Edinburgh Part 1: A continuation of the fantasy anime that ran for five seasons.
