Everyone settled in for the semester? We haven’t brought you a new batch of titles since July, mostly because we’ve been working through our enormous backlog. By our count, we’ve cataloged over 150 new items since last time, including a good number of new and returning television shows.
In the interest in promoting a wide variety of content, we want to highlight a few items that are polar opposites. Pretty much everyone loves The Lego Movie, but we also acquired the entire series of The Shield, beloved Korean body-swapping soap opera Secret Garden, Lars von Trier’s highly explicit Nymphomaniac, cult British acting tour de force Orphan Black, and a documentary about the unproduced version of Dune by Alejandro Jodorowsky.
(We also got our hands on Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, by far the most surreal program ever to air on television.)
Hit the jump to see what we got our hands on in the last month…
