Netflix has confirmed it is removing a number of popular films and TV shows from the platform in a major shake-up, The Mirror reports. The streaming giant regularly removes beloved content to keep things fresh for subscribers.
But while new content isn’t necessarily a bad thing, this can leave some viewers disappointed if they are in the middle of certain shows. On May 1, a host of movies and shows will disappear from Netflix, so if any of these are on your ‘to-watch’ list, you better act fast.
One of the most notable removals is the supernatural crime drama iZombie. The popular series – which stars Rose McIver and Rahul Kohli – ran between 2015 and 2019, and soon all five seasons of the show will leave Netflix.
