Netflix September 2018 new releases: the best movies and TV shows streaming this month
Jonah Hill and Emma Stone in Maniac, Marvel's Iron Fist season 2, BoJack Horseman season 5 and The Good Place season 3 - it's a BIG month
Netflix is flexing its creative muscles as we head into the "Fall" season, when, in the days of yore, the biggest US shows would traditionally kick off.
They've got the high concept boxes ticked with Cary Fukunaga's drug trial-centric miniseries Maniac, starring Jonah Hill and Emma Stone, and The Good Place season 3 (a sitcom about morality and the afterlife starring Kristen Bell and Ted Danson).
