It’s going to be a spectacularly busy end of the year for Netflix. They’ve begun stacking their fall lineup namely in part thanks to a couple of streaming rivals on the horizon. Disney+ is due out in the fall so Netflix is doubling down on its lineup to help keep it ahead of the competition.
This list is only covering the upcoming returning and debut TV series on the way for the rest of 2019. We’ll have another article in the coming weeks for the movies coming to Netflix this fall.
This list is about everything coming out on Netflix from September 1st onwards. We’ve already begun compiling a full list of September 2019 releases here. We’re also going to exclude any Christmas releases as we’re doing that separately here.
Bear in mind, this excludes any third-party pickups that we’re expecting. For example, the United States is expecting The Walking Dead season 9, The Good Place season 3 and American Horror Story season 8 for example.
How many Netflix series are coming out compared to its competitors? We believe Netflix has at least 70 series coming out by the end of the year. That compares to the nine that are scheduled for Disney+, five announced for Apple TV+, six Hulu Original series and at least nine announced for Amazon Prime.
We should absolutely note that this is nowhere near the full list but is the most comprehensive look at what’s coming to Netflix over the fall.
TV Series Coming to Netflix This Fall
Returning Series
Anne with an E (Season 3)

The lovable and sometimes detestable horse Bojack will be coming back this fall for his sixth outing on Netflix.

In case you didn’t know, another 20 episodes were ordered for Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and the third part is due out by the end of the year. A fourth part will then release sometime in 2020 and given the show’s popularity, we don’t think it’ll end there.

Narcos is a long-running drama series on some of the biggest drug lords in the world. Last year, we took off to Mexico to see how intense the drug war was there and it’s certainly that.
