Since Netflix shifted their focus to original content, these lists have been getting a little one-sided as the streaming service continues to purge their backlisted material. The early part of April sees a few horror classics hitting the queue, while the month closes out strong with a few anticipated Netflix Originals: Casting JonBenet and Rodney King.

FOX is the latest network not to renew their contracts with Netflix, so if you are/were planning to binge any of the FOX shows, you better get it done quick. I'm most upset by losing nine seasons of The X-Files, but I Want to Believe I can stream the show elsewhere….
