All good things, even great TV shows, must come to an end – but that doesn’t make it any easier to say goodbye. So as Netflix announces all the new films and programmes coming to the streaming service in February 2018, they’ve also revealed the content that will be departing.
We’ll be especially sad to see The Good Wife’s exit – it’s an addictively dramatic series with superb acting from Julianna Margulies, Christine Baranski and Mike Colter (who can now be seen in Marvel’s Luke Cage).
Now, Netflix doesn’t release official lists of what’s leaving their service in the UK (unlike in the US) but this is what we’ve gathered from the usually reliable NewOnNetflixand Vodzilla.
You’ve only got a few days left to enjoy these shows – so get watching!
