Pride can be exhausting.
From the parades to the parties to the corporate marketing, there is so much packed into June that sometimes it can be a bit overwhelming.
So for those moments when you need to just sit in the air conditioning, relax and avoid the crowds, Netflix is here to ensure that you can keep the spirit of Pride alive.
This week the streaming film and television service released it’s 2016 Pride Guide, a comprehensive list of the top streaming lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) films and television series available for viewing from the provider.
From “Orange is the New Black” to “Rent,” now you can engage with LGBT entertainment without in the comfort of your own home (or... if you’re Netflix and chillin’... the comfort of someone else’s home...).
Check out the list and descriptions below, courtesy of Netflix.
