1 | Inventing Anna
Nicole Rivell/NetflixWhen the story of real-life conwoman Anna Sorokin came to the public's attention via a 2018 New York Magazine article, it already sounded like it could have been a Hollywood invention. But the woman who was known to her socialite friends as Anna Delvey really lived lavishly on almost nothing in New York City, racking up debts and pretending to be wealthy enough to pay them back. Now, Grey's Anatomy and Scandal boss Shonda Rhimes has turned the unbelievable tale into a limited series for Netflix, starring Ozark's Julia Garner as the scammer herself. It premieres this Friday.
2 | Disenchantment
NetflixPart 4 of the animated fantasy series from Simpsons creator Matt Groening arrives on Netflix this week.

She moves through the kingdom of Dreamland with best elf friend Elfo (Nat Faxon) and her own personal demon, Luci (Eric André).
3 | Sweet Magnolias
NetflixBased on the Sweet Magnolias series of books by Sherryl Woods, this Southern drama stars Joanna Garcia Swisher, Brooke Elliott, and Heather Headley as three inseparable best friends who share every aspect of their lives with each other.
