I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that this year has felt like the longest ever. March alone seemed to last a good six months, and lockdowns did little to help pass time.
But throughout the social distancing, stay-at-home orders and local restrictions, one thing has been there for us all. One things that never failed to provide comfort, laughs, new experiences and entertainment: Netflix.
You – Season three
Despite having moved to the suburbs, I’ve no doubt that Joe Goldberg is still thinking about how he could rebuild his rare book chamber-slash-prison for the new season of You. After his not-so-happy ending with Beck in season one, we followed Joe to Los Angeles where he met Love and fell head over heels in ‘wolf’ with her.
After a tumultuous series full of more deaths, deceit and disaster, the pair appeared every bit the happy family as they prepared to start their new life in the suburbs. Of course, it didn’t take long for someone new to catch Joe’s eye, especially since they were living right next door.
An exact release date is yet to be confirmed, though shooting is expected to wrap in April before a release later in 2021.
Lucifer – Season five, part two
The completion of season five has been a long time coming for Lucifer fans, who first learned about the episodes all the way back in 2019. The first half of the season arrived on Netflix in August this year, but a production shut-down resulted in a delay to the final eight episodes.
Cobra Kai – Season three
Fans of The Karate Kid will be glad to know that the spin-off series Cobra Kai was one of the first shows to return in 2021, with season three dropping yesterday, January 1. The new season kicks off with the aftermath of the season two finale, which saw Cobra Kai and Miyagi-Do students go head-to-head in a huge brawl.
We find out what happens to Miguel (Xolo Maridueña) after he was kicked over a balcony by Robby (Tanner Buchanan), and continue to follow Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Macchio) as he searches for answers in his past, and Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka) as he seeks redemption.
Stranger Things – Season four
What on Earth happened to Hopper? Who will protect Hawkins now that the ferocious and determined Joyce has taken Eleven under her wing and moved away along with Will and Jonathan? Does Eleven even have powers any more?
These are just some of the questions we have after the third season of Stranger Things came to an end, but hopefully we won’t have too long to wait to find out the answers. A release date is yet to be confirmed, but the show resumed filming in September following coronavirus shutdowns and just a couple of weeks later the creators gave fans a teaser of what’s in store by revealing the episode titles for the new season.
Sex Education – Season three
