Netflix is only taking one kids' title off next month, and it's a great one: Wonder Woman. Luckily, it's not being removed until October 29th, so there is plenty of time left to watch it as a family. (Here's another reminder that with Disney+ becoming available soon, you and your family may want to get some watches on all of Netflix’s current Disney, Marvel, and Star Wars content while you can!)
