Competition shows will never get old, and that’s largely because production companies keep finding new things for people to compete over. The 2020 series, Win the Wilderness, was a great example of that. During the show, six British couples went through a series of challenges in hopes of winning a large homestead in Alaska. Instead of a traditional panel of judges, the contestants were tasked with impressing Duane Ose and his wife, Rena, who had owned the Alaskan homestead since the 1980s. Although the premise of the show may seem a little strange to say the least, it quickly became

The Coronavirus pandemic has spread its tentacles to the four corners of the Earth, forcing world governments into lockdown in order to slow the spread.
Part of the strategy involves isolation and social distancing measures, meaning more and more people are spending their spare time indoors – all of their time, as a matter of fact. It’s had a direct impact on the demand for Netflix and other streaming services, resulting in the Big N overtaking Disney on the stock market. Strange times indeed.
Be that as it may, as this is April 22nd, one of the final content drops has arrived, and What’s On Netflix has all the details. We begin with the five films coming to the streaming service today, one of which is the critically-acclaimed animated movie The Willoughbys.

The reality competition Win the Wilderness, which hits Netflix on April 22, is definitely not your typical reality show. Somewhere between a survival show and an off-the-grid home show, it's not quite like anything you've watched before. If you're thinking of streaming the first season, here's what Win the Wilderness is actually about.
The premise of the show is pretty straightforward: six couples compete to take over a property in the Alaskan wilderness. The backstory and the actual competition, though, are a little more complicated. In the backstory for the competition, we learn about Duane and Rena Ose, a couple who claimed land and built their own home in Alaska starting 35 years ago. They've lived there ever since, 100 miles from the nearest public road and completely "off the grid." But as they've gotten older, they're looking for a new couple to take over the property.
That's where the competition comes in.

While the rest of the entertainment industry languishes, Netflix thrives – as usual. Even so, the coronavirus pandemic, and its economic ramifications, are also felt over at the streaming giant’s HQ. While the platform has a large library of older films to choose from, new productions have been ground to an indefinite standstill.
Still, we are getting a few new originals from Netflix this month and the ones that are on the way will surely keep you entertained. Take, for instance, the second season of After Life, the morbidly funny miniseries written and starring British showman Ricky Gervais. The first season, which aired on the platform last year, tells the story of a middle aged man debating whether or not he should kill himself after his wife dies of cancer.
It’s not the stuff of comedy, which is probably the reason why it works so well. Gervais, who made...
