November was a month made for binge-eating tryptophan-rich foods and coming up with excuses why you just can't make it to your friend's comedy showcase. Therefore, by the transitive properties of laziness, gluttony and indecision, it is also the perfect month to really work on that couch indentation you've been sculpting with your butt by staying in and getting real familiar with all your various TV streaming services.

To that end, scroll down below to see what is coming and going from Netflix next month. Highlights of the month include The Ballad Of Buster Scruggs, the much-anticipated new movie from the Coen Brothers; the final season of the monologue-friendly political soap opera House Of Cards; The Kominsky Method a new comedy from Chuck Lorre (yuck) starring Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin (intriguing!); new stand-up specials from Trevor Noah, Loudon Wainwright III and John Leguizamo; the long-awaited The Other Side Of The Wind, Orson Welles' final film; Outlaw King, in which Chris Pine stars as Robert The Bruce; and classic & new films including Doctor Strange, Bram Stoker's Dracula, Children Of Men, National Lampoon's Animal House, and Green Room, which is one of the best thrillers of the last decade or so.
