Every year, the midpoint of April rolls around as inevitably as any other little corner of the calendar — but with an added weight to it. Inexorable as death itself, you might say, is Tax Day. 

Whether the thought of filing fills you with dread or the prospect of a refund has you light on your feet, a great way to mark the day is with a stream. So save your cash and just spend your time, whether on a modern Wall Street underdog story, a trio of titles that can bump up your own financial literacy, or an epic crime drama series that imagines a money-laundering scheme on a grand scale. As long as you’ve already got money on your mind, why not throw some of it up there on your screen, too?  

But first, what’s new on Netflix?

Another haunting glimpse. Season 7 of Black Mirror is now here, comprising six brand-new episodes — one of which is a sequel to the 2017 episode “USS Callister,” from Season 4. Don’t care to be unsettled? Try settling in for 162 games. The new sports docuseries The Clubhouse: A Year with the Red Sox takes you right into the Fenway Park dugout as it gets up close and personal with Boston’s ballplayers throughout the 2024 season. Not ready to step up to the plate? Disturb yourself with Bad Influence: The Dark Side of Kidfluencing. The new three-part docuseries directed by Jenna Rosher and Kief Davidson examines the exploitation and abuse that can happen behind the scenes when minors find internet fame.

If you have just a night … 

Root for the little guys with a double feature. In 2021, a bizarre financial episode occurred: The now-infamous GameStop short squeeze. In 2022, the three-part limited series Eat the Rich: The GameStop Saga dropped, illuminating how a group of amateurs, gathered primarily on Reddit, managed to disrupt the market so spectacularly. And in 2023, Craig Gillespie’s Dumb Money, which dramatized the whole affair, followed. Paul Dano leads the dramedy’s star-studded cast as a financial analyst whose Reddit activity helped propel the incident forward. 

If you have a whole day … 

Pick up a few tips. A trio of documentaries will help you maximize your money, starting with the 2021 limited series Money, Explained, which breaks down five different and difficult elements of how money works in the US. Once you’ve gotten the lowdown, it’s time to Get Smart with Money: Stephanie Soechtig’s 2022 documentary features financial advisors sharing their best tips for staying flush. And finally, take it to the next level by learning How to Get Rich. The eight-part 2023 docuseries features insights from bestselling finance guru Ramit Sethi. 

If you have the entire weekend … 

Do some laundry. For a longform stream all about cooking the books, queue up the acclaimed four-season crime drama Ozark (2017–2022), created by Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams. Jason Bateman stars (and won an Emmy for directing an episode) as Marty Byrde, a financial advisor–turned–money launderer who moves his wife (an Emmy-nominated Laura Linney) and children (Sofia Hublitz and Skylar Gaertner) to the Lake of the Ozarks in Missouri to expand his operation after getting in trouble with a Mexican drug cartel. Once there, Marty encounters a cast of local criminals (including three-time Emmy-winning Julia Garner) who help and hinder his business.

Don’t forget, you have one last chance … 

To take possession. Ari Aster’s acclaimed 2018 horror indie Hereditary stars Toni Collette as a woman who, after losing her mother, discovers a disturbing family secret that threatens her whole family. This time next week, there will be nothing left to inherit.
