It's that time again, when Netflix decides to remove your favorite movies and shows just as you wanted to watch them!
Among the most talked-about removals are iconic shows like Friends and Supernatural, both of which are major staples in Netflix’s catalog.
These two shows are some of the most-watched and re-watched content on the platform, and their departure is sparking outrage among fans in both the UK and US.
Here’s everything you need to know about the titles that are leaving Netflix this December and when you need to say your goodbyes.
Farewell to 'Friends' and 'Supernatural'
Friends will be leaving Netflix UK on December 30th, following its arrival on the platform in 2018.
The beloved 90s sitcom has become one of the most-streamed and rewatched shows on the service, making its exit a tough pill to swallow for UK subscribers.
Meanwhile, fans in the US have just two weeks left to catch Supernatural before it departs Netflix on December 18th.
After an impressive 13-year run on the platform, the popular supernatural drama will no longer be available for streaming.
Iconic Movie Franchises Bid Farewell
In addition to TV shows, a variety of popular movies will be leaving Netflix, too.
Some fan-favorite franchises making their exit include the Austin Powers, Beverly Hills Cop, and Matrix series. These iconic titles are set to be removed from Netflix in December 2025.
Here's a full list of everything leaving Netflix this month:
