Price: $12.99

Netflix is known and loved for its vast library of hit original shows from multiple countries. Although they have an enormous subscriber base, they do hit a miss with continually losing and gaining classic shows.

On a brighter note, Netflix will be the new exclusive streaming platform for Seinfeld in 2021. They still have many exciting shows such as Stranger Things, The Crown, You, and Black Mirror.
