Recently, Netflix announced that The Office, a beloved comedy series, will be taken off of their program this year. As most of us have been die hard fans of Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute, the question arises “What will I watch now?”. It’s okay because you’re not the only one panicking; we all are. 

However, Netflix offers a wide variety of movies and shows for us to indulge in. Something that most people don’t notice is that Netflix streams international series from countries like Colombia, Spain, Germany, Brazil, and many more. Thankfully for us, they provide the option to have the dialogue translated into English subtitles, so we can fully understand what’s going on. Foreign shows have become more and more popular for American’s to watch. We’ve all heard of anime and Spanish soap operas, but it’s time to see what the other side of the world creates. Now, let’s take advantage of our $7.99/m subscriptions and stream some foreign shows.
