The Best TV Shows & Movies Coming To Netflix In September 2020

With I'm Thinking of Ending Things, Charlie Kaufman adapts and directs what is sure to be a surreal film based on the novel by Iain Reid. A young woman (Jessie Buckley) goes on a road trip with her boyfriend (Jesse Plemons) to meet the boyfriend's parents (Toni Collette and David Thewlis), and nothing is as it seems. A new Kaufman movie is always worth checking out, and this one looks particularly intriguing. I read the book this is based on, so trust me on this one: things are gonna get weird.

Amy Adams should've won Best Actress for her work in The Muppets. No, I will not elaborate further.

The final season of The Good Place wasn't perfect, but like all previous seasons, it tried its best to bring us into its world where people grow and learn from their mistakes, and become better in the process. It's a beautiful, funny thing, and we probably didn't deserve it.
