Orange Is the New Black and Trolls New on Netflix This Week

by RT Staff | June 13, 2017

Normally, each week brings us a handful of worthy new selections on streaming services. This, however, is not a normal week. For whatever reason, there are only a couple of notable new releases, both available on Netflix, and they are a recent animated hit and the latest season of one of their original dramas. Then we’ve got some new titles available on FandangoNOW, but that’s about it! Here’s hoping next week’s selection is better.
