Life in lockdown has become the norm. If we are not binging on Netflix, we are on TikTok trying our hardest to perfect those viral dance moves. For those more interested in the former, we have got you covered on everything that’s coming in May.
Netflix is one of three streaming services available in South Africa. It may not be the cheapest compared to Showmax and Amazon Prime Video, but the pricey subscription fees are well compensated by the original and licensed content on offer.
