It’s time for another preview of what new shows will be released on Netflix throughout the remainder of 2023. Below, we’ll review all the confirmed returning and debut shows set to hit the service.
We’ve got a couple of other Fall 2023 previews for your reading pleasure, including looking through some of the documentaries and all the movies on the way. We’ve also done separate previews for new anime on Netflix and new K-dramas coming up for the rest of the year too.
Please note: In lieu of Netflix not providing a list like they’ve done for the Fall 2023 movies list, this list comprises all currently confirmed titles, and we’ll also add a few to speculate. Release dates are subject to change. This list does not represent every show coming in Fall 2023 but rather a selection.
Virgin River (Season 5)
Coming to Netflix: September 7th (and additional episodes on November 30th)
Fan-favorite Virgin River returns for a highly anticipated fifth season throughout the Fall. Per Netflix, they promise “new relationships, a shocking break-up, a difficult court trial, a heartbreaking goodbye, and a wildfire that threatens the town.”

Top Boy (Season 3)
Coming to Netflix: September 7th
After getting a stunning reboot at Netflix with the help of Drake, of all people, Top Boy will be coming to a close with the new upcoming season.

Everything Now
Coming to Netflix: October 5th
Coming from the same production company as The Crown and Who is Erin Carter comes a new comedy-drama that should be a good replacement for those going through Sex Education withdrawals by early October.
The plot revolves around 17-year-old Londoner Mia Polanco, who is released from hospital after battling anorexia and into the dreaded world of sixth form. Determined to live life to the fullest, she creates a bucket list.

That’s all threatened when past secrets come to light.
While this is the end of Flanagan’s work coming to Netflix on an annual basis, with any luck, we’ll see his future endeavors return to the streamer.
Bodies
Coming to Netflix: October 19th
This new limited series comes from the same production company as Netflix’s Obsession, Curfew, and The Pursuit of Love. This is easily one of our most anticipated new releases for the Fall and our pick of the one to watch.

We’ve got more on Netflix’s upcoming series Bodies in our expanded preview of the new show.

All The Light We Cannot See (Limited Series)
Coming to Netflix: November 2nd
Another personal highlight of mine coming up is All The Light We Cannot See, a WW2 period drama movie that employs an all-star cast with some superb writing and directing talent, too.
Premiering first at the Toronto Film Festival, the series follows a young blind girl with her fate entwined with a German soldier.
Among the incredible cast referenced are Hugh Laurie, Mark Ruffalo, Louis Hofmann, and Lars Eidinger. Newcomer Aria Mia Loberti plays the lead role of Marie-Laure.

Squid Game: The Challenge
Coming to Netflix: November 22nd
Squid Game remains one of the biggest titles in Netflix history, and it seemed only right that the streamer would try and exploit it further. That’s the case over Thanksgiving with the launch of a reality series that’s based on the series (a little too much if the news reports from the production are to be believed!).
Love Like a K-Drama (Season 1)
Coming to Netflix: November 28th
On the reality front from international territories, Love Like A K-Drama will be interesting to see in practice. The Japanese series hopes to make some of its contestants fall in love by placing them in a K-drama scenario/setup.

Yu Yu Hakusho
Coming to Netflix: December 14th
Hoping to continue a good run of anime to live-action adaptations will be this new Japanese fantasy series based on the manga and the popular anime.
“A delinquent teenager is killed and gets resurrected to serve as an investigator of the supernatural.”
Gyeongseong Creature
Coming to Netflix: December 22nd
OK, we did say K-dramas would be covered separately but we had to include Gyeongseong Creature on this list because it falls a little outside of that purview because of its horror nature.
Set in the spring of 1945, the series is during a grim era of bitter darkness and is about a young man and woman struggling for survival while fighting monsters born out of human greed.
Pokémon Concierge
Coming to Netflix: December 28th
Bringing the classic card-collecting game into the world of stop-motion animation, Pokémon Concierge takes place at the Pokémon Resort, a peaceful getaway for Pokémon to relax and have fun. Which adorable guest will the new concierge Haru befriend and help first?
Berlin (Limited Series)
Coming to Netflix: December TBD (expected to be December 29th)
It’s been a few years since Money Heist was on our screens, and while we’ve had the Korean spin-off to watch (or not, if the stats are anything to go by), we’ve been itching to get back into the world that Alex Pina established.
That will be happening come the end of the year with a new prequel spin-off series focusing on the character of Berlin, played excellently by Pedro Alonso. You’ll be following Berlin and his masterful gang, who gathers in Paris to plan one of his most ambitious robberies ever.
Exploding Kittens (Season 1)
Coming to Netflix: Fall 2023 TBD
Serving as a tie-in to the fun card game (and Netflix mobile game release) will be a new adult-animated series about God and the Devil, who are sent to Earth in the bodies of chunky house cats.

The Vince Staples Show (Season 1)

Ian Edelman and Maurice Williams serve as showrunners on the series that was filmed in Long Beach, California, in the early months of 2023.
The Crown (Season 6)
