New on Netflix in September 2023
Disenchantment season 5
Release date: September 1
Many might have fallen off Matt Groening’s other, other animated series but with the final season about to drop on Netflix, there’s never been a better time to get back on board with Bean in Dreamland.
Season 5 should, hopefully, see the culmination of the battle between our heroine and Dagmar – even if it takes Bean to Hell and back as Satan looms large. With a prophecy foretelling that Bean will kill someone she loves, however, don’t expect everyone to get out of Disenchantment’s final salvo alive.
Top Boy season 3
Release date: September 7
Disenchantment isn’t the only Netflix series coming to a close this September. Top Boy takes to the streets one last time and, with how Sully chose to end the previous season, the stakes are even higher – and bodies are dropping everywhere. Will he and Dushane come out unscathed in Summerhouse? And who will be top dog – or Top Boy – when the dust finally settles? The final six episodes promise intrigue, drug-fuelled drama, and plenty of twists and turns. This is one of Netflix’s most overlooked dramas, so be sure to catch up this month.
Burning Body
Release date: September 8
Based on the real-life ‘Crime of the Urban Guard’ which shocked Spain, Burning Body revolves around the murder of a police officer – the burning body of the title – and the two suspects: his wife Rosa and Albert, the officer she’s having an affair with.
The premise alone makes it stand out as one that should get tongues wagging. So get ahead of the crowd (and avoid the FOMO) by settling in and watching the Spanish-language miniseries’ maelstrom of sex, scandal, and death.
Wrestlers
Release date: September 13
Need something to scratch that GLOW itch in your life? Even if you don’t know your armbar from your armdrag, Wrestlers is set to take viewers inside the squared circle for an in-depth look at the fight to save Ohio Valley Wrestling, a company that once counted the likes of John Cena and Dave Bautista among its roster.
Band of Brothers
Release date: September 15
Band of Brothers is parachuting in from HBO, and we couldn’t be happier. Based on the real-life exploits of Easy Company during World War 2, this war miniseries is widely seen as one of the best shows of all time – and a show that helped kickstart the prestige drama boom of the 2000s. Starring the likes of Damian Lewis, Ron Livingston, and Scott Grimes, Band of Brothers takes viewers across one of the most chilling, unsettling theaters of war in Europe, from Omaha Beach, the forests of Bastogne, and through to Munich.
Sex Education season 4
Release date: September 21
With Moordale closing its doors and various lovesick puppies fumbling their way through relationships new and old, Sex Education’s final season very much has an end-of-term feeling to it. But that’s no bad thing. Some familiar faces, such as Ola and Olivia, may not be returning, but old favorites Otis, Jean, and Maeve (who has now uprooted to America) are back. Doctor Who fans can also catch a glimpse of Ncuti Gatwa before he heads off to become a full-time Time Lord.
Castlevania: Nocturne
Release date: September 28
Not to go all Psycho Mantis on you, but I see you like watching Castlevania. No, we’re not mind-readers. We just know you have good taste. The spin-off series, Nocturne, continues the Gothic adventure, this time in the French Revolution. Richter Belmont – the protagonist of classic Metroidvania Symphony of the Night – stalks the streets of 18th Century-Europe, hunting after a blood-hungry vampire.
