What to Watch: The Snooker and Streaming Showdown

As snooker fans breathe a collective sigh after a riveting yet chaotic English Open, the chill of autumn also brings a wave of bittersweet departures from Netflix. In this season of transitions, we find ourselves in the midst of a thrilling sports tournament juxtaposed against the backdrop of must-watch movies and shows leaving our beloved streaming service. Here’s how the snooker scene and the streaming wars are playing out this October.

The Latest Upsets at the English Open

The English Open has been anything but predictable this year. With shocking results echoing through the arena, the recent matches have left spectators gasping in disbelief! Mark Selby, a stalwart of the sport, fell to the rising star Ishpreet Singh Chadha in a nail-biting encounter, marking a pivotal moment in this tournament. Selby’s 5-4 defeat came as Chadha made a stunning clearance of 41, showcasing his potential on the snooker table.

The high-stakes drama of the English Open unfolds with unexpected twists.

Notably, defending champion Judd Trump also fell short, losing to Wu Yize 5-3, prompting Trump to express his relief to exit the tournament and refocus on practice. It’s a grueling reminder that in sports, the tide can turn faster than one can chalk their cue.

As snooker enthusiasts hold their breath for the upcoming semi-finals, Neil Robertson’s smooth progression past Barry Hawkins with a convincing 5-1 win raises the anticipation. The weekend promises electrifying encounters as Chadha faces Wu and Robertson battles Chris Wakelin.

Streaming Showdown: Must-Watch Titles Departing Netflix

While the snooker action captures our attention, another story unfolds in the world of streaming. As October rolls in, Netflix prepares to let go of over 60 titles, leaving viewers scrambling to catch what they can before it vanishes. Iconic titles such as Schindler’s List and the engaging cooking series Simply Raymond Blanc will be taking their final bow soon. Fans of the Halloween franchise and the horror flick Insidious will also face a tough choice as these seminal films bid farewell just as the spooky season approaches.

It’s not just horror fans who will feel the chill; lovers of adventure will mourn the departure of The Maze Runner series, proving that youth dystopia isn’t as timeless as some would hope. Perhaps the most heart-wrenching loss will be the beloved Paddington, a classic just before the much-anticipated third film hits cinemas this November.

Even on the snooker table, legends make history.

Here’s a glance at what’s leaving Netflix this month:

Leaving Netflix by October 1

• Call Me By Your Name (2017)

• Halloween (1978)
