As back-to-school routines kick in, Netflix is rolling out one of its most stacked September slates in years, blending originals, comedy specials and true-crime documentaries. From Ryan Murphy’s latest Monster installment centering on Lizzie Borden and more Untold real life stories, the month leans into must-binge TV. On the film side, Russell Crowe headlines the true-crime thriller Unabomber, while teen dance comedy Best of the Best and Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married Again? round out a varied originals lineup. ~Alexandra Heilbron
