Netflix’s May slate kicks off with a new comedy miniseries starring Tina Fey and Steve Carell: The Four Seasons (May 1) is an adaptation of Alan Alda’s 1981 film in which three married couples take one of their quarterly weekend getaways, on which they discover that one is about to divorce. The series also features Marco Calvani, Colman Domingo, Will Forte, Erika Henningsen, and Kerri Kenney-Silver.
Also on the comedy slate is black comedy series Sirens (May 22), in which Julianne Moore plays a socialite with a cult-like life of luxury. Kevin Bacon also stars. May brings the eighth and final season of adult animated sitcom Big Mouth (May 23), which includes a long list of guest stars in addition to the main cast voiced by Nick Kroll, John Mulaney, and others.
Netflix is releasing several new installments of its Untold sports documentary series in May. Untold: Shooting Guards (May 6) covers the gambling dispute that led to a locker room standoff between NBA players Gilbert Arenas and Javaris Crittenton, while Untold: The Liver King (May 13) tells the story of a steroid scandal centered on fitness and “ancestral living” influencer Brian Johnson. Untold: The Fall of Favre (May 20) is an exposé on Brett Favre’s controversial career. Netflix also has new sports content on F1 (F1: The Academy, May 28) and NASCAR (Full Speed, May 7).
The May standup comedy lineup includes new hours from Sarah Silverman (Postmortem, May 20) and Mike Birbiglia (The Good Life, May 26) plus the coverage of Conan O’Brien’s acceptance of the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor, which took place at the Kennedy Center in March.
What do you think so far?
Finally, there are a handful of drama-filled original documentaries coming to the platform, including American Manhunt: Osama bin Laden (May 14), Britain and the Blitz (May 5), and Fred and Rose West: A British Horror Story (May 14).
Here’s everything coming to Netflix in May, and everything that’s leaving.
