Wouldn’t it be great if the beloved series we loved bingeing stayed on Netflix forever? In June, we had to say goodbye to the endlessly fascinating and gorgeously detailed world of “Mad Men,” and this month we’re losing the ultra-entertaining country music soap, “Nashville.” Don’t even get me started on “Buffy” or “Happy Endings,” both of which I still mourn deeply.
But this month’s offerings seem less about binging, and more focused on movies. There are several late ’90s/early 2000s classics like “Titanic” and “Bring It On,” a number of revealing documentaries, and a ton of family offerings.
Here’s what’s coming and going from Netflix Canada in August.
