Netflix continues to give new life to forgotten films, underseen series, and flat-out flops. This year we've observed the Netflix effect multiple times, with Mexican comedy thriller "Non Negotiable" shooting to the top of the streamer's charts worldwide back in August. The month prior saw Italian thriller "Vanished into the Night" dominate Netflix, and in April Netflix breathed new life into Renny Harlin's forgotten action movie "The Bricklayer."

Now, it's time for British series "A Discovery of Witches" to benefit from the streamer's remarkable powers of resuscitation. An adaptation of Deborah Harkness' "All Souls" book trilogy, the show stars Teresa Palmer as Diana Bishop, a reluctant witch who is forced to embrace her magical abilities after discovering a highly sought-after manuscript which makes her a target for the various fantastical creatures secretly living among humankind. Matthew Goode co-stars as Matthew Clairmont, a vampire who aids Diana on her journey.
