Subway commuters, your ride will never be the same.

Netflix app users can now download TV series and movies to watch with or without an Internet connection; that means you're free to binge-watch all eight episodes of "Stranger Things" and all three seasons of "Black Mirror" any time you're riding a train underground.

Netflix introduced the new download feature to its platform for phones and tablets on Android and iOS Wednesday.

Subscribers to the streaming service will see a new button appear next to TV series episodes and movies currently available for download when they update their app.

But users should know that not all Netflix content is ready for downloading. (You won't be inhaling the "Gilmore Girls" revival in a subterranean tunnel just yet.)

In this new era of entertainment everywhere, we encourage you to follow the old etiquette rule for respecting your fellow straphangers: "Wear your f**king headphones," in the words of our friends at Brokelyn.
