Friday is typically a Netflix day. The streaming giant usually releases its new original content on Fridays, just in time for subscribers to binge-watch the entire weekend.

This Friday, Netflix has dropped part two of its supernatural "Sabrina the Teenage Witch" reboot, "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina"; Brie Larson's feature directorial debut "Unicorn Store," fresh off her starring role in the blockbuster "Captain Marvel"; and "Our Planet," Netflix's own take on hit nature docuseries like "Planet Earth."
