Sex Education Season 2 and more coming to Netflix in January 2020
By Callum Gunn
Netflix is trying to kick the year off great, even with Friends leaving the service. Here’s everything coming to and leaving Netflix in January 2020.
We’re looking at the new year for Netflix releases. Something that we’ve had on our mind throughout 2019 is the exit of Friends. It’s happening on New Year’s Day, so this is your last call to binge all 10 seasons on the streaming service. However, there’s plenty of great content heading to Netflix in January 2020.
One show we can’t overlook is the arrival of Sex Education Season 2. This British comedy was a surprising delight when it was released, bringing us a unique tale that was fully diverse, inclusive, and hilarious at the same time. The second season promises to offer more of the great laughs and character growth.
More from Netflix
- Bridgerton season 3: All the details to know about Penelope and Colin’s love story
- It’s a slow week on Netflix with only three new releases (Nov. 20)
- Exploding Kittens: From card game to Netflix animated series starring Tom Ellis
- The Crown and more Netflix shows and movies to stream this week (November 13)
- Escaping Twin Flames and more harrowing love-centered documentaries to watch on Netflix
For those into period dramas, Anne with an E Season 3 is also heading to Netflix. Sadly, this is the final season, with Netflix and CBC deciding that the Anne of Green Gables adaptation was not going to get a fourth season.
If you need a little horror in your life, Dracula is the show to turn to. The first season drops on Jan. 4. For those who haven’t heard much about it, it’s from the minds of Sherlock. (Yes, that Sherlock.) It’s not a series to accidentally overlook.
The end of the month will also see the arrival of Ragnarök. No, not the third Thor movie, sadly. This is the Norwegian series that promises to capture hearts. Netflix has had plenty of excellent success with foreign-language dramas, so there’s a lot of hope for this one.
What about the exits? Of course, Friends is one of those that we’ll be saying goodbye to. All the Rocky movies will also exit the streaming service at the start of the month, so make sure you get your viewing in now. And if you haven’t checked out the first Zombieland movie (where have you been), this is your last chance!
