As the number of shows and movies available to stream in Australia continues to grow at an impressive rate, it can be tough to keep up with all the new additions to each streaming service each month.

We've all come to anticipate a new stable of Netflix Originals releases each month, but figuring out which shows they are and when exactly they become available isn't so easy. And what about the large number licensed shows and films that are made available to stream, if only for a limited time?

In an effort to keep you informed of the best shows and movies that are in the process of being added to Netflix, we'll be bringing you an updated list of what you can expect on the service on a monthly basis. 

Not only that, we'll also be singling out the biggest releases, as well as a number of quality TV shows and films which we believe deserve your Netflixing time. 

So get ready to kick off the month with an epic binge – here's what's new on Netflix in January 2019. 

TV shows highlights for January 2019

Titans (11/1/2019)

The first DC Universe Original is set to land on Netflix in Australia, with Batman's former protégé Robin leading a group of foul-mouthed teen heroes in effort to fight crime and hopefully remove the chips from their shoulders. Parents, this one's not for kids...

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Season 4 Part 2 (25/1/2019)

One of Netflix's first and finest comedies is coming to an end, as Unbreakable Kimmy Kimmy Schmidt sees its titular character finally choosing to help herself along with her friends, Titus (Tituss Burgess), Jacqueline (Jane Krakowski) and Lillian (Carol Kane). Keep an eye out for the show-stopping double episode inspired by the film Sliding Doors, which explores what life might have been like for the whole group if Kimmy had never been held against her will in the bunker.

Marvel's The Punisher: Season 2 (Coming Soon)
