"BoJack Horseman" follows a washed-up actor — who happens to be a horse voiced by Will Arnett — as he attempts to get his life on track through a series of stunts that include a book deal and an Oscar campaign. However, he is consistently held back by his own self-doubt and drinking problem. The show deals with heavy themes for an animated comedy, including depression and drug abuse.

*Both season 2 and 3 had 100% Rotten Tomatoes scores, but season 2 had a higher audience score.

"House of Cards" saw power hungry Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey) lie, manipulate, and even murder his way into becoming the President of the United States.

However, after a series of sexual assault allegations against Spacey surfaced, Netflix decided to cut ties with the actor. In November, Netflix announced a sixth and final eight-episode season starring Robin Wright, who plays Frank's wife, Claire. Production resumed on the season in January, with two new co-stars added — Diane Lane and Greg Kinnear.
