Even more titles are being stocked in Netflix’s streaming library this week. After saying goodbye to 2024 and ringing in 2025 with dozens of new additions last week, the streamer is making 18 new TV shows and movies available for streaming this week, and they’re almost all Netflix originals.
This week’s roundup only features two licensed titles – all seven seasons of Younger and The Graham Norton Show: Best Bits – with the rest of the lineup being padded with 16 Netflix original shows, films, and specials. Most-anticipated is American Primeval, a gritty new six-episode limited series set in the 1857 American frontier. The series is scheduled to premiere on Thursday as one of several all-new Netflix originals this week. Others include The Breakthrough, Love Is Blind: Germany, and Ad Vitam. Meanwhile, both I AM A KILLER and The Upshaws will return for their sixth seasons, while Gabriel Iglesias debuts his newest Netflix comedy special, Legend of Fluffy. This week will also bring with it an all-new live event, WWE Raw: 2025.

You can watch all of these titles and more by signing up for one of the streamer’s three subscription plans – the basic with ads plan ($7 per month), the standard plan ($15.50 per month), and the premium plan ($20 per month). The latter three plans give subscribers access to the complete Netflix streaming library, but content availability is slightly limited on the Netflix with ads plan. Keep scrolling to see everything set to be added to the streaming library this week, and don’t forget to check out all of the titles that are set to leave before the end of the month!

Smith, and executive producers Eric Newman and Alex Gayner, AMERICAN PRIMEVAL stars Taylor Kitsch, Betty Gilpin, Dane DeHaan, Saura Lightfoot-Leon, Derek Hinkey, Joe Tippett, Jai Courtney, Preston Mota, Shawnee Pourier, and Shea Whigham.

The Upshaws: Part 6
Premiere Date: Thursday, Jan. 9
Type: Netflix Series
Synopsis: “Bennie Upshaw (Mike Epps), the head of a Black working class family in Indianapolis, is a charming, well-intentioned mechanic and lifelong mess just trying his best to step up and care for his family — wife Regina (Kim Fields), their two young daughters (Khali Spraggins, Journey Christine) and firstborn son (Jermelle Simon), the teenage son (Diamond Lyons) he fathered with another woman (Gabrielle Dennis) — and tolerate his sardonic sister-in-law (Wanda Sykes), all without a blueprint for success. But the Upshaws are determined to make it work, and make it to the next level, together. In this upcoming part, the Upshaws continue to ride life’s ups and downs, including new jobs, bigger dreams, health struggles and some major life surprises but still hanging on with the love that comes with family.”
