Everything New on Netflix in May 2024

Jerry Seinfeld makes his directorial debut in May with his new Netflix movie Unfrosted, a humorous look at the origin of the Pop-Tart. (“What’s the deal with Toaster Strudel? What is this, the Hasburg Empire?” etc.)

If you don’t care about breakfast pastries, though, there are dozens of other movies, shows, and comedy specials to check on Netflix as well. The new season of Bridgerton debuts in May, along with a bunch of specials from the Netflix Is a Joke festival — including new shows from Katt Williams and John Mulaney. You can also watch new seasons of Selling the OC and Married at First Sight. And then there are so many other things too. We could literally be here all day if we listed them all.
