Season 2 of Marcella aired in Britain starting in February 2018, and will be making its way to Netflix on June 8.

Sense8: The Series Finale — June 8

This Netflix original sci-fi series is practically a legend at this point. After two seasons, Netflix canceled Sense8 in 2017, claiming that it wasn't bringing in enough viewers to justify its exorbitant cost (rumored to be $9 million per episode by season 2). When the dust all cleared, fans were left with a massive cliffhanger and an insatiable urge for more Sense8, leading to a flood of online petitions to put the show back on the air.

Netflix must have heard the news: people like to watch cooking shows when they're stoned. So why not make a cooking show that's all about getting stoned? That's the premise of Cooking on High, a culinary cook-off featuring the kind of greens your mother warned you about. Each episode, chefs compete to complete a cannabis-inspired dish, which is then tasted and critiqued by a panel of judges.
