Netflix 2019 has already treated audiences with The Umbrella Academy and Sex Education and there’s plenty more in the pipeline with The Crown season three, Black Mirror season five and Stranger Things season three. Last year was more of a quiet one for Netflix as some of its big hitters were in production but it’s going to be a big one this year. From January to December 2019, we’ve put together as complete and as comprehensive a list as we can of Netflix releases. The shows listed below have officially been renewed by Netflix or the network that makes the series. We will be updating this article as more release dates are announced by Netflix.
Many of the shows have yet to get an exact date, so we’ve placed them according to when the previous season was released.
