Fall is in the air, and with the changing of the seasons comes the changing of what's available on Netflix. The headliners this month are Black Panther and second seasons for a trio of Netflix originals (American Vandal, Atypical, Iron Fist) and Norm Macdonald's talk show, but there's plenty more to keep you glued to the couch, too.
The month starts with Qauntico season three arriving September 2nd, and you can take another trip to Wakanda when Black Panther debuts a day later. The superhero hijinks continue September 7th when Iron Fist returns. That's also the day when Atypical comes back for round two.
City of Joy, a documentary about a rape survivors in war-torn Congo, premieres September 7th. A week later you'll get to watch comedian DL Hughley's latest stand-up special, Contrarian. Bojack Horseman season five splits the month up on September 14th.
The 21st is a busy day on the service as well, with Cary Joji Fukunaga's mind-bending Maniac limited series arriving alongside a documentary about music legend Quincy Jones. Two days later season eight of The Walking Dead arrives, and two days after thatA Wrinkle in Time premieres on the service.
Of course, these new additions mean that others have to go. This month, the original Ghostbusters, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, The Descent and The Dark Knight all disappear September 1st, with Oscar-winning Alan Turing biopic The Imitation Game leaving the spotlight on September 28th.
Removing The Descent, a claustrophobic horror story about a group of women trapped while spelunking in an un-surveyed cave, seems a bit odd given the timing. We're about a month from witching season kicking into gear, so hopefully the powers that be add quality macabre in time for Halloween -- arthouse-gem The Witch debuting September 17th feels like a good sign, though.

After six summers of researching, testing, and recommending window air conditioners, we've learned that quiet and affordable ACs make most people the happiest—and we think the LG LW8016ER will fit the bill in most rooms. This 8,000 Btu unit cools as efficiently and effectively as any model with an equal Btu rating, and runs at a lower volume and deeper pitch than others at this price. Little extra features like a fresh-air vent, two-axis fan blades, and a removable drain plug help set it apart, too. The LG LW8016ER is a top choice for an office or den, and some people will find it quiet enough for a bedroom, too. If our main pic...
Note-taking app Evernote has fallen on hard times of late, culminating in its latest spate of job cuts impacting 15 percent of its workforce (54 employees). CEO Chris O' Neil -- an ex-Googler who took the reins in 2015 -- announced the firings at an all-hands meeting earlier today, reports TechCrunch . In a message on the Evernote blog , O' Neill admitted he'd set "incredibly aggressive goals" for the company in 2018. He continued: "Going forward, we are streamlining certain functions, like sales, so we can continue to speed up and scale others, like product development and engineering." The layoffs follow an exec exodus just weeks ago and the company's recent brand refresh (complete with a refined logo and wordmark). But critics are more concerned about its product, especially the free tier, which they claim lacks the perks to...
Pre-loaded cartridges of cannabis concentrate are currently among the most popular means of consumption, and for good reason. They're discreet to use and easy to handle, a far cry from the dark days of 2016 when we had to dribble hash oil or load wax into narrow-mouthed vape pens by hand. But, frustratingly, an ever increasing number of oil cartridge manufacturers employ one-off design standards so that their products won't work with those of their competitors, thereby locking customers into proprietary ecosystems. We've already seen this with nicotine vaporizers -- which has a seen a massive rise in "pod systems" in the last few years, each outfitted with a unique canister and battery built to be incompatible with those of their competition. Is it too late for the burgeoning cannabis industry to set a universal standard for their product designs? ...
