The 10 Best Shows Added To Netflix In February 2023

Following

While it may be Oscar season, all eyes are on TV screens as HBO is setting viewership growth records with The Last of Us, and everyone is hoping to somehow find something to match it. That includes Netflix, which as ever, has a host of new shows out this month, though probably nothing I’d venture rises to quite that level.

Here are ten of the best shows coming to Netflix in February 2023 for a wide ranges of ages an interests. No guarantee they get renewed, however.

10. Perfect Match Season 1 (February 14) – This one is going to be something to behold, an unholy reality amalgam like no other. Netflix is channeling Bachelor in Paradise to combine a bunch of its reality shows into a single, unified pool of daters. The show will include contestants from the likes of Too Hot to Handle, The Circle, Selling Tampa, Sexy Beasts, Love is Blind, The Ultimatum and The Mole. Your TV may combust from the level of drama.

9. Ganglands Season 2 (February 17) – We jump across the ocean to France for the second season of Ganglands, the crime drama that’s been off the air for a year and a half, but returns for a second run of episodes. It’s actually an adaptation of a film, but it’s blossomed into a full-on franchise for Netflix.

8. On My Block: Freeridge (February 2) – Missing On My Block since it went off the air in 2021 after 4 seasons and 48 episodes? Well, here we have a pretty rare Netflix spin-off, something you don’t see all that often. The show is based on easter eggs from the final episodes of the original, and focuses on a new generation of friends.

7. My Dad the Bounty Hunter (February 9) – Had to get one for the kids in here. The show follows two kids who accidentally tag along on a mission of their dad, who is an intergalactic bounty hunter. No, no small Yodas are involved. The show features the voice talents of Yvette Nicole Brown, Jim Rash, Rob Riggle and Russell Hornsby. Hopefully it does okay, as animation has had a rough go of it across the entire streaming industry as of late.

6. Gunther’s Millions (February 1) – If there’s a single docuseries you want to watch this month, it’s going to be Gunther’s Millions, the story of the world’s richest dog (yes you read that correctly) and his very strange owners involved in more orgies than I’m comfortable hearing about.

5. Red Rose (February 15) – While techno horror is a bit hit or miss, I am certainly interested in the concept of Red Rose, in which teens download an app that demands they do dangerous things, or else. This sounds pretty much exactly like Nerve, and I love that movie, so there we go.

4. New Amsterdam Seasons 3 and 4 (February 1) – I believe this is the only non-Netflix original on the list, but Netflix has added the two newest seasons of the NBC show due to its licensing deal with them, and they’ve proven to drive a whole lot of watch time. If you’re into medical dramas, it’s probably going to land for you.

3. Formula 1: Driven to Survive Season 5 (February 24) – I may not watch the actual races during the year, but you can bet that I am going to binging all of the new season of Drive to Survive on day one to absorb all the drama and action. This show has been such a big hit that Netflix has greenlit a variant for practically every other pro sport in existence.

2. Outer Banks Season 3 (February 23) – Outer Banks returns for what could be its final season, and given Netflix’s reputation, I’m a little amazed it’s made it this far. This year, we can see that the show has proven to be a star-maker for Madelyn Cline, who starred in Rian Johnson’s Glass Onion a few weeks ago.

1. You Season 4, Part 1 (February 9) – I would easily consider this the biggest Netflix release of the month, and it’s only part 1 (Part 2 is a month later on March 9). You will head to Europe where Joe will find himself being stalked by a rival murderer this time around, and he must sort through his posh new friends to figure out who it is, while also resisting the urge to murder people himself (good luck with that).
