"American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace" has been scooping up awards including seven Emmys and two Golden Globes and is finally hitting Netflix. The second season of the anthology series centers on spree killer Andrew Cunanan (Darren Criss) and the murder of fashion designer Gianni Versace (Edgar Ramirez).

Netflix's "Fyre" is a documentary about the disastrous Fyre Festival . What was marketed as a VIP luxury experience in the Bahamas, resulted in hundreds of attendees getting stranded with delayed flights, a lack of food and water, and un-pitched tents. In this documentary, organizers and some of the people involved with the festival are telling their stories about what went wrong.
