Netflix October 2023: Farewell To Fan Favorites

As the leaves change and the days grow shorter, Netflix subscribers are in for a bittersweet October. With each new month comes a fresh batch of additions to the streaming giant’s library, but it also means bidding adieu to some beloved movies and TV series. This October 2023, Netflix is set to remove a diverse array of content from its catalog, leaving viewers with mixed emotions.
Netflix’s quiet monthly removals are the result of licensing agreements coming to an end. While some titles may return to the platform in the future, others may find a new home on different streaming services. It’s all part of the ever-evolving landscape of digital entertainment.
For those who want to catch these departing gems before they vanish, we’ve compiled a comprehensive list of everything leaving Netflix in both the UK and US. So, mark your calendars and set aside some time to binge-watch your favorites before they’re gone.
October 9th: Missing Link and Occupation: Rainfall
On October 9th, two titles will make their exit from Netflix. “Missing Link” (2019) takes viewers on a whimsical adventure filled with mythical creatures and a quest for identity. Meanwhile, “Occupation: Rainfall” (2020) plunges us into a sci-fi world where humanity battles extraterrestrial invaders. These films offer unique storytelling and visual spectacles that you won’t want to miss.
October 10th: Ana e Vitória, Blood Pact, and The Stand-In
As we move into October 10th, another set of titles is poised to leave. “Ana e Vitória” (2018) is a Brazilian romantic comedy-drama that follows the journey of two young musicians as they navigate love and fame. “Blood Pact” (Season 1), a Netflix Original, bids farewell, leaving behind a trail of suspense and mystery. Rounding out the day is “The Stand-In” (2020), a delightful rom-com starring Drew Barrymore in a dual role, promising laughs and heartwarming moments.
October 12th: Kuntilanak
For horror enthusiasts, October 12th holds a spooky departure. “Kuntilanak” (2018), a Netflix Original, weaves a tale of supernatural horror rooted in Indonesian folklore. As this chilling series disappears from the platform, it might be the perfect time for a late-night scarefest.
October 13th: The Rise of Phoenixes
On October 13th, fans of historical drama must bid farewell to “The Rise of Phoenixes” (Season 1), a Netflix Original. Set in ancient China, this captivating series combines political intrigue, complex characters, and breathtaking cinematography. If you appreciate epic sagas, make sure to catch it before it vanishes.
October 14th: Alice Junior and Sanju
The middle of October brings the departure of two more titles. “Alice Junior” (2019) tells the heartwarming story of a transgender teenager navigating the challenges of high school and first love. On a different note, “Sanju” (2018) is a biographical drama that delves into the tumultuous life of Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt. These films offer a mix of emotions and compelling storytelling.
In summary, October 2023 is ushering in a season of change for Netflix subscribers. While we bid farewell to these movies and series, we can also look forward to the fresh additions that will soon grace our screens. As Netflix continues to evolve its library to cater to a diverse audience, it’s a reminder that there’s always something new to discover and enjoy.
