Every TV Show, Movie, and Original Coming to Netflix This Week

'Alexa & Katie: Season 3'

Alexa and Katie are heading hack to Netflix with the third season of Alexa & Katie on Monday, Dec. 30.

Starring Disney XD star Paris Berelc and newcomer Isabel May, the Netflix original series follows lifelong best friends Alexa and Katie as they prepare to enter the new and terrifying world of high school. They are forced to confront a crisis and deal with personal challenges that most teens don't have to deal with as Alexa undergoes cancer treatment.

Season 3 will find Alexa trying to put cancer behind her as Katie still needs all the support she can get from her best friend.

'The Degenerates: Season 2'

Netflix is closing out 2019 with a laugh, the streaming giant's original stand-up comedy series The Degenerates returning for Season 2 on Tuesday, Dec. 31, aka New Year's Eve.

Originally premiering on the streamer in October of 2018, the series showcased edgy material suitable for mature audiences and featured talents such as Big Jay Oakerson, Brad Williams, Yamaneika Saunders, Liza Treyger, Joey Diaz, and Christina Pazsitzky.

Season 2 will bring out Adrienne Iapalucci, Donnell Rawlings, Jim Norton, Nikki Glaser, Ms. Pat, and Robert Kelly, who will feature in six new wild and unfiltered sets.

'Messiah'

Netflix is performing miracles, or possibly conning the entire world, with the debut of its new original series Messiah on Wednesday, Jan. 1.

Created by The Book Thief's Michael Petroni and directed by V for Vendetta helmer James McTeigue, the series follows CIA officer Eva Geller as she tracks and investigates a man gaining international attention through acts of public disruption, cultivating a cult-like following of those who claim he's performed miracles. As he captivates the global media, Geller launches an investigation into his origins in an attempt to discover if he is a divine entity or a deceptive con artist capable of dismantling the world's geopolitical order.

The 10-episode first season stars Mehdi Dehbi, Tomer Sisley, Michelle Monaghan, John Ortiz, Melinda Page Hamilton, Stefania LaVie Owen, Jane Adams, Sayyid El Alami, Fares Landoulsi, and Wil Traval.

'The Circle'

Netflix is ringing in the new year by diving into a little reality TV.

The Circle, the streaming giant's later adventure into reality TV based on a U.K. series of the same name, sees contestants playing the ultimate popularity contest. Forced together in a single building in isolation, the group of contestants can only communicate with one another via social media through a digital platform dubbed "The Circle." Never meeting face-to-face, they must decide whether to be their authentic selves or a better version of themselves in order to nab the $100,000 cash prize.

'Anne with an E: The Final Season'

Anne with an E is writing its final chapter with the 10-episode final season debut on Friday, Jan. 3.

Based on Lucy Maud Montgomery's 1908 novel Anne of Green Gables, Anne With an E follows "plucky orphan" Anne, who finds an unlikely home on Prince Edward Island with a spinster and her soft-spoken bachelor brother.

Season 3, the final season, is set to see Anne celebrate a milestone birthday that will spark a search for her origin story and sets a course for her future.

The series initially premiered on the streamer in March of 2017, though Netflix announced in late November that it would not be renewing the fan-favorite series for a fourth season. The news was immediately met with backlash, with many fans encouraging the Netflix to reverse its decision and pick the series up for an additional season.
