New on Netflix Canada August 2018

, ,

The New on Netflix Canada August list is now out and includes some new series like the already controversial Insatiable, Matt Groening’s Disenchantment, the second season of Ozark, and more. In case you missed it, Netflix profile images have been updated, and if you own a latest Sony BRAVIA MASTER series TV, you can even take advantage of the new Netflix Calibrated Mode.

Ages ago, we ran separate Netflix and Netflix Canada lists and then made the choice to combine them due to similar crossover. However, due to the amount of extra time we spend on a monthly basis cross-referencing two lists, we’re thinking of going back to the separate lists. While there was also some crossover, once you got past the Netflix Originals, the selection between the two services varies quite a bit. Let us know in the comments below which format you prefer!

Without further ado, check out what’s coming to (and leaving) Netflix Canada in August. If you’re south of the border, check out the New on Netflix August list! Apologies for the condensed and abbreviated list this month but we’re squeezing this in while on vacay — we’ll return to the regular format next month.
