Nonetheless, as we wave goodbye to summer season – or winter, for these within the southern hemisphere – there’s one factor we will all look ahead to: loads of not solely probably nice new reveals, but in addition returning favorites.
With that in thoughts, I’ve compiled a listing of the 14 TV sequence I can not wait to see between now and December 31 on the world’s greatest streaming providers. With a number of genres catered for, I feel a number of of the beneath suggestions will make it onto your ‘to observe’ listing, too. So, let’s waste no extra time: listed below are my most anticipated reveals (ones that had been introduced previous to this text’s creation, anyway) to stream in late 2024 on Netflix, Prime Video, Max, and extra.
Gradual Horses season 4 (Apple TV Plus)
Launch date: September 4
I noticed a tweet – are we nonetheless calling them that? – from somebody not too long ago that recommended this Apple TV Plus present could be a colossal hit if it held a primetime slot on, say, UK terrestrial channel BBC One. And, frankly, it is troublesome to not agree with that sentiment. Gradual Horses is arguably probably the most underrated Apple TV Unique, with the Gary Oldman-led spy thriller sequence incomes reward and award nominations aplenty from critics and its loyal fanbase alike.
With Gradual Horses season 4’s imminent launch galloping over the horizon, then, now’s pretty much as good a time as any to binge watch one of many greatest Apple TV Plus reveals‘ first three seasons, every with simply six episodes apiece, forward of its return. Capisce?

Agatha All Alongside (Disney Plus)
Launch date: September 18 (US); September 19 (UK and Australia)
Debuting simply two weeks earlier than probably the most haunting month of the yr arrives, Agatha All Alongside will probably be Marvel‘s closing live-action TV sequence of 2024. However, with the Kathryn Hahn-fronted WandaVision spin-off reuniting us with fan-favorite character Agatha Harkness for what’s anticipated to be one of many MCU‘s most spooky tasks but, I am cautiously optimistic about its possibilities of casting a spell on, effectively, everybody.
So, what’s it about? The Marvel Part 5 sequence will see Harkness create her personal coven of darkish magic misfits to embark on a quest down The Witches’ Street, a harmful and terrifying realm that grants needs to anybody who efficiently navigates it. This is hoping it is good – oh, and keep in mind, it was Agatha all aloooooong!

The Penguin (Max)
Launch date: September 19 (US); September 20 (UK and Australia)
The sequel to the 2022 smash hit The Batman continues to be just a few years away, however this TV spin-off will intention to fill the crime thriller-shaped gap in my life and yours very quickly. Colin Farrell reprises his position from the aforementioned Batman flick as Oz Cobb, one among quite a few crime bosses who’ll vie for a better slice of the underworld pie following Gotham’s felony kingpin Carmine Falcone’s loss of life in The Batman. The largest impediment standing in Cobb’s means? Carmine’s menacing daughter Sofia (Cristin Milioti), who’s out to show Gotham’s new felony mastermind does not should be a person.
A darker and extra mature providing than its film forebear, The Penguin seems to be set to be the subsequent HBO TV Unique that’ll waddle its means onto our greatest Max reveals listing (NB: it’s going to air on Sky/Now TV within the UK, and Binge in Australia). I, for one, cannot wait to see Farrell ship one other commanding appearing efficiency that’ll certainly earn him extra just a few award nominations on subsequent yr’s circuit.

It has been over 18 months since The Legend of Vox Machina final graced out screens, however Prime Video’s R-rated animated adaptation of Crucial Position’s beloved Dungeons and Dragons sequence is able to return with its eagerly anticipated third installment. Certainly, we’ll be reunited with the titular gang’s eccentric ensemble in early October, with Vox Machina nonetheless looking for a option to defeat the Chroma Conclave – aka a gaggle of fearsome dragons who threaten Tal’Dorei’s total existence.
I am an enormous fan of Amazon‘s grownup animation line-up, which counts Invincible, Hazbin Lodge, and Undone amongst its quantity. So, it’s going to come as no shock to be taught that one of many greatest Prime Video reveals is among the many applications I am trying ahead to seeing earlier than the yr ends.

Heartstopper season 3 (Netflix)
Launch date: October 3
Heartstopper, Netflix’s vastly widespread coming-of-age rom-com drama, returns for its third season in early October, and I believe there are hundreds of thousands worldwide who’re determined to see what Nick, Charlie, and the remainder of the gang stand up to this season.
Understandably, Netflix is taking part in it coy over the plot of its hit present’s third entry, nevertheless it has teased that Nick and Charlie will navigate much more high-school romance-based challenges. With the pair beginning to look to their larger schooling future, too, Heartstopper season 3 may very well be the funniest, most dramatic, and tear-jerking installment but. Have a tissue or 20 helpful, of us.
Heartstopper season 3 will launch in full on launch day.
Disclaimer (Apple TV Plus)
Launch date: October 11
Primarily based on Renee Knight’s novel of the identical identify, this Apple TV Plus undertaking has all of the elements to be one other acclaimed Apple sequence that bafflingly passes most individuals by.
A terrifically proficient main woman in Cate Blanchett? Verify? The most effective administrators of the fashionable age in Alfonso Cuaron? Double examine. A pulsating psychological thriller plot – one centered round Blanchett’s veteran conflict correspondent who bizarrely finds out she’s change into the protagonist of a fictional story – that guarantees to depart audiences guessing week to week? Triple examine. I would like to see Disclaimer break into the mainstream like Presumed Harmless did earlier this yr, and it has each probability of doing so with the expertise connected to it.
Disclaimer will debut with a two-episode premiere. New episodes air weekly till November 15.
Cobra Kai season 6 half 2 (Netflix)

It will not be for much longer till Cobra Kai closes the doorways of its dojo for the ultimate time, however a minimum of we have got two extra batches of episodes to look ahead to till it does. The subsequent lot of these will swan kick their means onto Netflix in mid-November, with Cobra Kai season 6 half 2 delivering 5 extra entries for followers (myself included) to be captivated by.
Unsurprisingly, season 6’s sophomore quantity will decide up instantly after its predecessor, with the Miyagi-Do staff arriving in Barcelona to compete within the Sekai Taikai. Count on punches to be thrown, tears to be shed, and loads of comical and dramatic moments to play out as the strain is ratcheted up in season 6 half 2. Ensure you get pleasure from what’s on supply, too, as a result of season 6 half 3 will not arrive till someday in 2025. It is going to be an extended wait, my fellow college students.
Cobra Kai season 6 half 2 will launch in full on launch day.
Arcane season 2 (Netflix)
Launch date: someday in November
Anybody who’s frequented these components since November 2021 will know the way a lot I really like Arcane. I am not a League of Legends devotee – sorry, LoL followers and Riot Video games, it is only a recreation franchise that handed me by – however I am going to watch the sport sequence’ animated TV tasks for so long as they’re pumped out.
Within the least stunning information of the yr, then, you do not want me to inform you that I am tremendous excited for Arcane season 2. It has been an extended, lengthy, loooong time since one of many greatest Netflix reveals made its debut, however the excruciating three-year anticipate its second and closing season will probably be over quickly. I am crossing my fingers and toes that we lastly, lastly get a confirmed launch date at Netflix Geeked Week 2024 in mid-September. I would not flip my nostril up at an announcement or two in regards to the follow-up sequence that’ll change it, too, Riot.
Arcane season 2’s launch schedule hasn’t been revealed but, however count on it to be launched in three components like season 1.
Dune: Prophecy (Max)
Launch date: someday in November
I’ll warn you up prime: this Dune TV sequence will not function Timothee Chalamet’s Paul Atreides. So, in the event you had been going to tune in with the hope of seeing the A-lister, reset your expectations accordingly. That does not imply Dune: Prophecy will not be price tuning into, nonetheless. The sci-fi drama, which is about 10,000 years earlier than Atreides’ journey begins in Dune, will chart the rise of the Bene Gesserit, the covert, all-female group that units occasions in movement surrounding the successors of the Padishah Emperor.
Like Arcane, this prequel present does not have an official launch date but, nevertheless it’s definitely giving me Sport of Thrones and Shogun vibes with its inter- and intra-familial melodrama, bloody violence, and different R-rated materials. It’s going to be a part of The Penguin in launching on Sky/Now TV within the UK and Binge in Australia, by the best way.
Dune: Prophecy’s launch schedule hasn’t been unveiled, however this HBO TV Unique’s episodes will doubtless launch one per week.
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew (Disney Plus)
Launch date: December 3 (US); December 4 (UK and Australia)
Star Wars: The Acolyte upset lots of people earlier this yr – and, with Andor season 2, which is my most anticipated Star Wars sequence, not due out till early 2025, this “Goonies in area” TV present will look to get Lucasfilm’s iconic franchise again on observe on the small display screen.
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew stars Jude Regulation as an enigmatic rogue-cum-Drive wielder who, after an opportunity encounter, is charged with serving to 4 youngsters navigate their means dwelling. Given the vastness of that notorious galaxy far, distant, it’s going to take the quintet some time to achieve their vacation spot, not least due to the threats that lurk within the depths of area.
Skeleton Crew is one among two new Disney Plus reveals that’ll make their grand entrance this festive season, so Disney will hope its main streamer will win the vacation streaming wars. Till it is launched, although, the jury is out on whether or not Skeleton Crew will be a part of our greatest Disney Plus reveals listing.
Star Wars: Skeleton Crew will arrive with two episodes on launch day. New entries will debut weekly.
Win or Lose (Disney Plus)
Launch date: December 6
The second of Disney Plus’ new kid-friendly sequence in December, Win or Lose, will deliver Pixar‘s signature (and reborn) big-screen magic to TV screens worldwide for the very first time. Set within the hours and/or days earlier than a high-school championship softball recreation, Win or Lose‘s joker within the pack lies in its strategy to its lead character – or, slightly, lead characters. Certainly, every of the eight-part sequence’ installments will concentrate on a unique softball staff member, starting from the Will Forte-voiced coach and a lovesick umpire, to its insecure gamers and overprotective mother and father.
Win or Lose‘s first trailer makes it seem like a cross between Pixar’s greatest high-school-set films in Inside Out and Turning Pink. If it may well embody the perfect components of that duo, I am positive Pixar’s first TV enterprise will probably be an *ahem* dwelling run.
Win or Lose’s launch schedule is but to be decided, so it is unclear if it’s going to debut in full on launch day or obtain a weekly episodic timetable.
Secret Degree (Prime Video)
Launch date: December 10
Not content material with giving us one terrific anthology TV present in Netflix’s Love, Demise, and Robots, Tim Miller and his manufacturing firm Blur Studios will current us with a brand new sequence, one impressed by a number of the world’s greatest videogame franchises, known as Secret Degree.
Every episode will inform standalone, non-canon tales in a wide range of gaming universes, reminiscent of God of Warfare, Pac-Man, and Unreal Match, that’ll intention to thrill very long time followers of those recreation sequence, in addition to newcomers searching for one thing enjoyable to stream – and, perhaps, get them hooked on mentioned recreation franchises, too. If Secret Degree proves to be successful, I will be very concerned with seeing Blur’s tackle different iconic gaming franchises (so long as they’ll get the rights to inform tales in these worlds, that’s).
Secret Degree’s launch schedule is presently unknown, however I think about all 15 episodes will arrive on launch day.
Squid Sport season 2 (Netflix)
Launch date: December 26
Disney could win the battle when its involves family-friendly content material this Christmas however, let’s be sincere, there’s just one present that the world will probably be tuning into within the closing week of the yr: Squid Sport season 2. Netflix’s most profitable TV Unique is about to dominate on-line discussions as soon as extra when it returns for its sophomore season, and I am already trying forward of streaming it with a leftover turkey dinner sandwich in a single hand and an ice-cold beer within the different.
Lee Jung-jae reprises his position as Squid Sport protagonist Gi-hun, who’s gunning for the titular video games’ creators after his outstanding however traumatizing victory within the hit present’s first outing. Between you and me, he may not achieve success in placing an finish to the life-threatening gameshow, both. Certainly, with Squid Sport season 3 already confirmed for a 2025 launch, I think about Netflix will maintain again Gi-hun’s actual victory till the sequence’ closing entry.
Squid Sport season 2 is predicted to launch in full on December 26.
Creature Commandos (Max)
Launch date: someday in December
2025’s Superman film is being considered because the “true” starting of James Gunn and Peter Safran’s rebooted DC Cinematic Universe (DCU), nevertheless it will not mark the franchise’s official place to begin. That’ll include Creature Commandos, which is technically the DCU’s first undertaking because it’s set to be launched on Max in December.
So, what is the adult-animated DCU Chapter One TV sequence about? Primarily, Creature Commandos will see a gang of superpowered, monstrous miscreants embark on a secret mission to sort out a villain extra highly effective than any of them. Gunn has made a behavior of turning lesser-known superheroes and villains into family names, so I count on this cross between The Suicide Squad‘s anti-hero roster and themes, and Guardians of the Galaxy‘s dysfunctional discovered household vibes to carry out admirably sufficient.
Creature Commandos’ launch schedule hasn’t been revealed, however I imagine all seven episodes will drop on launch day. There isn’t any phrase on whether or not it’s going to launch within the UK and Australia in December but, both.
