4 best TV shows coming to Netflix (and 3 shows leaving) in January 2025

As a long-time TV enthusiast who has seen countless shows come and go, I must say that January 2025 promises to be quite an eventful month for Netflix viewers. On one hand, we have some exciting additions that will certainly delight fans of various genres. For instance, the return of NCIS, a staple in the procedural drama world, will undoubtedly bring joy to many. And let’s not forget about the magic-filled world of The Magicians, which will sadly depart from our screens.

2025 is knocking at our doorsteps, and it’s high time to map out my binge-watching schedule! Aside from the amazing new shows streaming platforms have in store for us this year, I can’t help but get excited about the return of some beloved series that might pop up on Netflix unexpectedly, much like Suits, Your Honor, and many other recent hits.

In January 2025, Netflix is set to introduce some popular recent TV series such as “Younger,” a romantic comedy from TV Land, and the initial entry of a new spinoff from the universe of “The Walking Dead.” Additionally, an established procedural show will bring back its earliest seasons, which were previously taken off months ago.

Absolutely, as new titles join Netflix each month, some titles inevitably leave. In the case of January 2025, a significant portion of the departing content is movies, but regretfully, three popular series are also set to disappear from the platform. Don’t miss out on these fan-favorites before they go! Discover which shows you should binge now and what new titles will be taking their place instead.

Younger seasons 1-7

Coming to Netflix: Jan. 7

Darren Star, known for creating ‘Sex and the City’ and ‘Emily in Paris’, is making his series ‘Younger’ available on Netflix for the first time from January 7th. The show centers around Sutton Foster, a 40-something single mother who fibs about her age to reenter the corporate world of a New York publishing house. Before long, she finds herself entangled in a love triangle and deceiving everyone!

As a gaming enthusiast indulging in a binge-watching spree, let me share my excitement about the star-studded series, “Younger.” This engaging show features talents like Hilary Duff, Nico Tortorella, Debi Mazar, Miriam Shor, Peter Hermann, Molly Bernard, and Charles Michael Davis. Over seven seasons, spanning a total of 84 episodes, it’s been a captivating ride. If you’re a fan of the wit and charm from shows like “Sex and the City” and “Emily in Paris,” but have yet to dive into the world of “Younger,” I strongly recommend giving it a try once it hits Netflix.

The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live season 1

Coming to Netflix: Jan. 13

As a dedicated fan, I’ve been basking in the post-apocalyptic world of “The Walking Dead” for years, with Netflix serving as my go-to streaming platform for this gripping series. The original AMC phenomenon spanning across all 11 seasons is readily accessible, along with two enticing spinoffs: “Fear the Walking Dead” and “The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon“.

Krapopolis season 1

Coming to Netflix: Jan. 15

For enthusiasts of adult animation and fans of “Community”, here’s a show you won’t want to miss out on! The Dan Harmon-crafted Fox animated sitcom titled “Krapopolis” is set to debut on January 15, expanding its fanbase. Set in the mythical ancient Greece, this series has already garnered immense popularity, securing renewals for seasons 2 and 3 before the first episode aired, and confirming season 4 even before season 2 premiered. Needless to say, it’s definitely worth adding “Krapopolis” to your watch list on Netflix!

The Magicians season 1-5

Leaving Netflix: Jan. 14

Starting in January 2025, one of Syfy Network’s most cherished shows, “The Magicians,” will no longer be available on Netflix. In this series, a young student at Brakebills University for Magic Learning discovers that the magic he thought was just in his favorite books is real. “The Magicians” initially debuted in December 2015 and concluded after five seasons in April 2020. Although you can buy the show online, here’s hoping it finds a new streaming platform soon.

Monk seasons 1-8

Leaving Netflix: Jan. 14

In the scorching summer of 2023, the popularity boom of USA Network’s legal drama Suits on Netflix sparked a trend. The streaming service started broadcasting several other procedural dramas from the cable network, such as White Collar, Royal Pains, and Monk. However, these shows didn’t achieve the same level of success as Suits. Unfortunately, Royal Pains departed from Netflix before the new year, and Monk said goodbye in mid-January. Fortunately, fans can still catch all eight seasons of the detective series on Peacock.

New Amsterdam seasons 1-5

Leaving Netflix: Jan. 15

I’m sorry to break this to ‘New Amsterdam’ enthusiasts, but here’s some disappointing news: Starting from mid-January, you won’t be able to stream all five seasons of the NBC medical drama on Netflix. The show, headlined by Ryan Eggold, was one of the early series that, similar to ‘Suits’, gained viral popularity post its acquisition. Netflix strategically released the series in installments to spark interest among new viewers before making the full series available.

2024 saw a buzz in March about NBC working on a spinoff series named “New Amsterdam: Tomorrow.” Though concrete developments haven’t happened just yet, the green light for “Suits: LA” indicates that anything could be possible in the world of TV. As of now, all seasons of “New Amsterdam” can still be streamed on Peacock. I, as a dedicated fan, eagerly await further updates!
