It’s a new year, but some things remain the same: regrets about holiday spending, resolutions that will surely be broken, and the correct belief that there’s too much stuff to watch on TV. Netflix continues to be the primary destination for streaming movies and TV shows for many people, with rivals Disney+ and Apple TV+ still trying to keep up. With recent hit shows like The Fall of the House of Usher, Suits, Squid Game: The Challenge, and blockbuster movies like Leave the World Behind and The Killer, Netflix promises to continue dominating in 2024.
January promises to be a great month for Netflix subscribers. The Oscar contender Society of the Snow will premiere in the first week, along with the Kevin Hart action comedy Lift and Schitt’s Creek star Dan Levy’s new drama, Good Grief. There’s also a new season of Sonic Prime and the debut of the limited series The Brothers Sun. Check the list below for everything that is coming to Netflix in January 2024.

Bitconned — NETFLIX DOCUMENTARY
Ray Trapani had always wanted to be a criminal, even as a young boy. In 2017, amidst the economic frenzy of the Bitcoin boom, there was no better place for scammers than cryptocurrency. So when Ray’s friend approached him with the idea of creating a debit card for crypto, Trapani jumped at the chance. There was only one problem: he had no idea how to do that. But thanks to fake LinkedIn profiles, paid celebrity endorsements, and the online community’s insatiable desire to “get rich quick,” Centra Tech was soon raking in millions of dollars a day.
Was it real? No. But did it work? Maybe. In this fast-paced, debaucherous documentary from director Bryan Storkel (Producer of The Legend of Cocaine Island + Director of The Pez Outlaw), Ray himself guides viewers through the ups and downs of his dramatic journey, alongside his family, former friends, and the journalist who exposed Centra Tech as the first high-profile fraud case of the crypto era.

Jacqueline Novak: Get on Your Knees — NETFLIX COMEDY
Comedian Jacqueline Novak’s Get on Your Knees, her break-out hit stand-up show about the blowjob, is coming to Netflix. A word-of-mouth sensation Off-Broadway, directed for the stage by John Early, the show first took off in 2019, where audience members showed for repeat viewings across multiple sold-out runs. A Time’s Critic’s Pick, the show earned Jacqueline a Drama Desk nomination for Outstanding Solo Performance. Over the last few years, Novak has toured the show nationally and abroad, and enjoyed sell-out stints at Largo Los Angeles.
This year, Novak teamed up with director Natasha Lyonne and cinematographer Sam Levy (Rothaniel, Lady Bird) to film the show’s final performance as a concert film-meets-comedy special at historic Town Hall in New York City. Ostensibly a 90-minute stand-up set about the blowjob, Get on Your Knees is both raunchy and poignant, an unexpectedly philosophical, coming-of-age tale of triumph that pushes the boundaries of stand-up. John Mulaney said: “Ladies and Gentlemen, I have seen the Muhammad Ali of comedy.”
