What will February bring to Netflix? "House of Cards" returns for its much awaited third season, but not until Feb. 27. If you can't wait for your Kevin Spacey fix until then, "Now: In the Wings on a World Stage" (2014), a documentary of Spacey starring in a production of Shakespeare's "Richard III," is available on Feb. 1.

And the 2004 "King Arthur," starring Clive Owen and Keira Knightley, isn't exactly Shakespearean, but look at how many great actors -- like Mads Mikkelsen, Ioan Gruffudd, Hugh Dancy and Joel Edgerton -- have gone on to much bigger things.

You can also stream "Joe," one of Nicolas Cage's best films in recent years; the overlooked indie "The Brothers Bloom" with Mark Ruffalo, Adrien Brody and Rachel Weisz; and the barely-in-theaters thriller "The Two Faces of January," starring Viggo Mortensen and Kirsten Dunst.

Netflix has just released their lists of what films and TV shows we will see added in February…and what films and TV shows will vanish.

First, the good news: quite a few classic and popular TV shows are making the grade on the streaming service, including the first five seasons of Mash, Hawaii 5-0, and the new season of House of Cards.

Doris Roberts is happy to get back to fighting crime, at least on television.

An assistant to Pierce Brosnan's "Remington Steele" as Mildred before playing mom to Ray Romano on "Everybody Loves Raymond," the five-time Emmy winner teams with several other familiar TV faces -- Tim Conway ("The Carol Burnett Show"), Marion Ross ("Happy Days"), Ron Glass ("Barney Miller") and Paul Dooley ("Curb Your Enthusiasm") -- in Monday's (Aug. 5) new episode of TNT's "Major Crimes."

The veteran actors collectively play former cast and crew members of a fictional 1970s show called "Prognosis: Homicide," and they now live in an apartment complex where another resident has died suspiciously. Capt. Sharon Raydor (Mary McDonnell) and her team seek the group's assistance in determining what happened.

Roberts' character was the hairstylist on the show-within-the-show ("an outspoken one ... what else would you expect from me?"), and the actress tells Zap2it the "Major Crimes" guest gathering is "incredible,...

Director Alex Zamm has produced some of the most asinine movies you ever saw on a DVD shelf.  From Carrot Top's Chairman Of The Board to Inspector Gadget 2 to Tooth Fairy 2 and an upcoming new version of The Little Rascals, Zamm is essentially the go-to guy for all those Dtv sequels and prequels that leave you shaking your head with "just why?" rolling off your tongue.  With that said, I have to give Zamm at least a little credit for this test reel for adaptations...
