There's nothing that helps you cool down from a summer heat wave more than staying inside for a good ol' binge-watching session.
Netflix has a lot of new -- and a lot of old -- shows and movies coming to its platform in August. Here's a look at what's landing (and expiring) on the streaming service this month.
Top Pick: The Get Down
Baz Luhrmann doing a TV show? Yes please. The drama, which centers around the early hip-hop scene in 1970s New York, is basically the musical TV show of our dreams.
