Despite the new and impending arrivals of such powerhouse streaming services as Disney+, HBO Max and Peacock, the world of quality streaming media still belongs squarely to Netflix, and the company is showing no signs of backing down from pressure. In fact, 2020 will be another breakthrough year for Netflix, with a slew of big-budget shows to complement its growing number of less-pricy projects.
With follow-up seasons to popular shows such as Stranger Things and 13 Reasons Why, 2020 is going to be a huge year for Netflix, which will also boost up its feature side with Eddie Murphy's long-awaited Beverly Hills Cop 4 and other noteworthy acquisitions. Combine those with lots of big-named comedy specials, killer docu-series and franchise-connecting animated series, and there might be little time to focus on other streaming services in 2020.
Check out our monthly rundown below, noting that all release times are at 3:01 a.m. ET (12:01 a.m. PT), and that all brand new series will be listed in ALL CAPS.
January 2020 Netflix Premieres
To kick off the new year, Netflix is bringing the final seasons for two of its popular shows: the long-running BoJack Horseman, which will wrap up the final episodes of Season 6, and Anne with an E, which was recently cancelled ahead of its Season 3 premiere. But those aren't the only ones out there, of course, so check out what else is coming.

February is usually one of the poorest months for big screen fare, with weather issues also playing into the reasons why it's often better to just sit back on the couch and stream. Netflix will no doubt have customers glued to their seats when February starts, with the long-awaited debut of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez's masterpiece comic series Locke & Key debuting after a nine-year multimedia struggle.

More 2020 Netflix Premieres Yet To Be Announced
Understandably, Netflix has a ton of projects that are either still unable to go back into production, or are on their way to begin filming again. As such, the streaming service has yet to provide official release dates for many of the shows that we already know are getting new seasons. Netflix has, by and large, kept premiere dates close to its vest, so expect for that to remain the case in 2020.
BEHIND HER EYES
Big Mouth Season 4
Black Summer Season 2 (Possibly)
Dear White People Season 4 (Final Season)
Disenchantment Season 3
Family Reunion Season 2
I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson Season 2
Love, Death, & Robots Season 2
Mr. Iglesias Season 2
PACIFIC RIM
Ultraman Season 2
Stay tuned for more updates on not only better ideas of when the above shows will be popping up on Netflix, but also to see what other projects will be added to the streaming service throughout the new year. Please do bookmark this page and return every so often to see what new goodness has been announced.
For now, this is everything that Netflix currently has on the docket, but you can be sure that in the months to come, the streaming service will go public with news of many more premiere dates to come. For those wondering about all the other new and returning shows coming to TV that aren't just relegated to streaming on Netflix, check out our Fall 2020 premiere schedule.
