The Best Netflix Original Series of 2021

So, Martin Scorsese and Fran Lebowitz walk into a bar... No, seriously. That's a show. If you have trouble reading this message, view it in a browser.       Netflix's Best Original Series of 2021   It's 2021, and your nightly scroll through Netflix is as much of a staple in your routine as brushing your teeth. We usually know what is coming out on Netflix every week because this is our job, and yet most nights, we still wind up scrolling aimlessly for longer than we'd like to admit. As the weather warms up, we're hopeful for more time spent outdoors and away from screens in the evenings. But for the time being, it's nice to have a list of the best bets: an abbreviated rundown that keeps you from getting arthritis in your scroll thumb. From true crime documentaries that'll keep you up all night to new adaptations of classic films, Netflix is cooking up something for everyone this year. Here's the best of the original series that has been released so far.

There's so much good stuff to get through, and so much that could easily take up residence in your closet, that picking just one thing (or, hell, five things) poses a very real challenge. Is it just me? It might be! But I doubt it. Todd's stuff has been a perennial favorite of not only Esquire's editors, but its readers, too. So, what are we to do with this information? Grin and bear it? Hold out and try to ignore those sweet, sweet deals? Hell no! Instead, I've scoured the entire sale section to find 21 things that you should consider buying right this instant and wearing all through the remaining days of winter and then well into spring (and summer, and fall). Happy shopping. Read More           24 Spring Jackets You Can Layer Now—and Wear on Their Own Later   Ahhhhh! [inhales theatrically] You smell that? That's spring, springing. Which means it's time for you to get right emotionally with the idea that you won't have a damn clue what the weather's doing on any given day until summer arrives. Sure, it might be freezing in the morning. But who knows? By lunchtime, it might be a balmy 50 degrees, and you'll want to go outside, and unless you want to suffer some self-induced heat stroke, that big, burly puffer you've been reaching for these last few months isn't ideal for the job. So, yeah. You need a spring jacket. This is great news, because you have an absolutely enormous amount of options to play with. Denim? Sure! Something more technical, that can pull double duty for a coffee run and an actual run, wicking sweat and moving with you through your workout? We've got those, too. We've also got lightweight parkas, chore coats, bombers, leather jackets, fleece zip-ups, car coats, and even more. So give that puffer a well-deserved rest and get yourself something you can layer now, wear on its own later, and enjoy till the temperature creeps so high that you have to put it aside and wait patiently for the cool weather to come back. It's light outerwear season, baby! Let's get it.

(We're talking comfy on one's skin and around the ears.) Given the track record Lululemon's face masks have for quickly selling out, now's a wise time to stock up on the reusable masks that one of our editors argues is the best face mask out there. Now, wildly popular face masks are finally back in stock. Don't sleep—these don't usually last long.

It is quite another thing to make that cocktail with style. And style is not spilling a half-ounce of vermouth on the table, dashing ice cubes across the kitchen floor, and cutting lime wheel garnishes so thick they topple the coupe. You need the right tools of the trade to have any hope of aping the grace of a professional bartender (we miss them dearly), and on behalf of your bar cart, you also need tools that look the part. So instead of piecing together a random at-home setup, go for the visual cohesion of a bartending kit. Here, you'll find both basic and more extravagant kits. Make the call on the shaker versus mixing glass, how much physical space you can dedicate to the cause, and whether your drinking habits really require the addition of a muddler. If you don't know a 1x2oz. jigger from the can opener under the sink, you can read up on all the traditional bartending tools in our home bar guide. And if you don't know any cocktail recipes, well, get to studying. From toil comes great reward and such a nice, harsh-mellowing buzz.

He plays his alter-egoed android with staggering sincerity, questioning his fellow Avengers, especially Wanda, with a curiosity that would make you think there's a heart under all those wires. Bettany says Vision stands for decency, which might just be 2021's most aspirational superpower. "At his core, Vision is decent. Uncluttered, ego-less, timeless... Therefore, [he] loves in a very clear and uncluttered and uncomplicated way." Esquire's Brady Langmann caught up with Bettany in the lead up to WandaVision's highly anticipated finale. He told us what's next for him—and more importantly—for Vision.
