2021 Staff Picks: Movies, TV Shows, And Documentaries

Syracuse Public Library staff didn't just read in 2021. We also enjoyed a wide range of movies, TV shows, and documentaries. In fact, we really struggled to limit our picks to just one!

Despite COVID continuing to throw off some cinema releases, we found a lot to appreciate on DVDs and streaming. Our picks aren't limited to new 2021 releases. We've included some newly discovered classics and comfort watches like the Avatar the Last Airbender series, Schitt's Creek​, and Call the Midwife.

Click any of the below titles to place holds. If it's a series, the link goes to its first season so you can get started. A few of the titles will need to be ordered from other libraries in the Evergreen network.

• The Great, TV Series (Sarah's Pick)
• Schitt's Creek, TV Series (Katie's Pick)
