New Netflix Series and Movies in January 2023

New movies and shows are coming on Netflix in a new year. In the first month of 2023, Netflix brings the usual mix of accessible original comedy and drama series and movies, documentaries, kid stuff, culinary competitions, and international fare, with a handful of highly promising titles in the mix.

This year kicks off with Kaleidoscope, a customizable series that comes out on January 1st. After that, Notable new releases since then include two works based on two very different eras: “The Pale Blue Eye,” a lavish 19th-century suspense drama starring Christian Bale and Gillian Anderson, and That ’90s Show, the sequel to the feature-length sitcom That ’70s Show.

In terms of licensed content, notable additions include Love Island USA Season 2 (the series’ first season aired on Netflix in November and December), the hit animated family film Minions: The Rise of Gru, the final season of The Walking Dead, and the 2004 film Closer.

Scroll through for a full list of everything coming to and from Netflix in January 2023.

Short Reviews of Featured Shows

Kaleidoscope (Jan. 1)

This limited series starring the great Giancarlo Esposito looks like an average heist thriller. But it has a gimmick, the first seven of the eight episodes can be watched in any order (be sure to watch the finale, of course). This gimmick depends on how you feel about it and your tolerance for potentially ill-advised experimentation with narrative. I haven’t seen the show so I can’t tell you how it works. But it looks polished and has a good cast, including Rufus Sewell and Tati Gabrielle.

Copenhagen Cowboy (Jan. 5)

Outstanding director Nicolas Winding Refn returns to his native Denmark with this noir series after a decade in the US. It follows a young woman named Miu (Angela Bundalovic) on a revenge mission in Copenhagen’s neon-lit underworld. Refn is that rare contemporary filmmaker willing to take genuinely artistic risks that sometimes don’t pay off but always make a difference. Even when he fails, his failure has style. It’s worth noting that this is a non-commercial project. Therefore, it deserves special attention at a time when streaming services are increasingly homogeneous.

Ginny and Georgia Season 2 (Jan. 5)

Ginny & Georgia tells the story of Ginny Miller, a 15-year-old girl who is “more mature than her 30-year-old mother, Georgia”. In a small New England town, Georgia decides to settle down with her daughter Ginny and son Austin to give them a better life than hers. The stories of adults in this show are funny and interesting. But the children’s stories were more controversial. If you hate spoiled and privileged kids, then I suggest you think twice before watching.

The Pale Blue Eye (Jan. 6)

Scott Cooper wrote and directed this suspenseful film based on Louis Bayard’s 2003 novel of the same name. Christian Bale plays Det. Augustus Landau investigates a gruesome 1830 West Point murder with the help of a curious cadet played by Harry Melling. The luxurious cast also includes Gillian Anderson, Charlotte Gainsbourg and Robert Duvall.

That ’90s Show (Jan. 19)

That ’90s Show, Netflix’s sequel series, is a semi-classic sitcom in the style of Fuller House. In 1995, Leia Forman (Callie Haverda), the teenage daughter of Eric (Topher Grace) and Donna (Laura Prepon), traveled to Wisconsin to visit her grandparents Red (Kurtwood Smith) and Kitty Forman (Debra Jo Rapp), and hanging out together with neighbors kids.
