As the summer gradually draws to a close and temperatures (hopefully) begin to decrease, the autumn season brings a slew of highly anticipated Netflix shows to our watchlists. Exciting new seasons of some of the platform’s biggest hits are set to keep us entertained indoors for a good 10 episodes or more.
After an unusually lengthy wait, September will see the premiere of Virgin River season 5, addressing the cliffhangers left by the season 4 finale. Concurrently, two beloved series, Disenchantment and Sex Education, will bid farewell in their final seasons.
In addition to these, September boasts a variety of titles, including foreign shows, an anime, and an intriguing limited series. But how do they stack up? In line with our monthly tradition, we’re here to guide you on what’s worth watching and what might be worth skipping this September.
Top Netflix Picks for September 2023 Here are the top five Netflix shows to catch in September 2023, alongside two shows that might not resonate with everyone and could be reserved for later. Let’s start with the much-anticipated return of Virgin River:
Virgin River: Season 5
Recommendation: Absolutely!
Despite fans’ preference for a summer release, the first part of season 5 of Virgin River is set to premiere on September 7th. Picking up from season 4’s aftermath, this season finds Mel and Jack engaged, awaiting their first child, and grappling with the fallout from Charmaine’s actions. While teasing a town-wide fire, November will bring two holiday-themed episodes.
Sex Education: Season 4
A Must-Watch!
After four seasons of laughter, the original series Sex Education bids adieu with its fourth season, premiering on September 21st. Season 4 promises significant changes, making it unmissable for longtime fans. Experience the series’ conclusion this fall.
Burning Body
Consider Skipping:
Among Netflix’s steamier offerings like the 365 Days movies, Through Your Window, and Fake Profile, Burning Body, a sexy mystery-thriller premiering on September 8th, could capture attention. However, if this genre doesn’t usually appeal to you, it’s okay to pass.
Disenchantment: Part 5
Highly Recommended:
Almost two years since the last batch of episodes, Disenchantment returns with its fifth and final part, dubbed the third season, on September 1st. Catch up on the previous 40 episodes to prepare for the climactic ending.
Top Boy: Season 3
Definitely Tune In!
The British crime drama, Top Boy, wraps up with its final episodes premiering on September 7th. Season 3 holds the answers to the Top Boy of Summerhouse, ending the wait since March 2022.
Dear Child
Consider Skipping:
The German limited series Dear Child, premiering on September 7th, adds dark suspense to the mix. Escaping captivity unravels an unsolved mystery, likely to captivate audiences, but if dark mysteries aren’t your preference, you might skip this one.
Castlevania:
Nocturne An Anime Adventure Awaits! Anime fans won’t want to miss Castlevania:
Nocturne premiering on September 28th. With eight new episodes, this adventure is tailor-made for Castlevania enthusiasts. Don’t overlook this September gem.
