Although it has not been announced as the “final season”, we know that all of the final scenes of the comic have been filmed. So unless Netflix plans to continue The Sandman with a new and original story, and it’s a huge success, we’ll likely say goodbye to The Dream in 2025.

The Brazilian teen-crime drama will conclude with its fifth and final season in February 2025. The significance of Sintonia’s ending is not only its popularity in Brazil, but the series will officially be the longest-running Portuguese-language drama on Netflix. Throughout the seasons, customers have had the chance to see the lives and dreams of the people of São Paulo, from the perspective of Donny, Nando and Rita.
blood of zeus

Arriving during the peak of the global pandemic, Blood of Zeus shattered all expectations and was a huge hit on Netflix. However, the three-and-a-half-year wait for the second season was too long for some subscribers, and the second season struggled to match the first season’s ratings. Nevertheless, an exciting third season is on the way, concluding Heron’s story as the Olympians face destruction at the hands of the returning Titans. If the third season is successful, there is a chance for a spin-off in the future.
big mouth

final season of big mouth It’s a historic series for Netflix as Nick Kroll’s upcoming comedy officially surpasses Grace and Frankie to become the longest-running Netflix original in history.
In addition to the use of animated genitalia, Big Mouth is known for its hilarious voice cast, which includes actors Nick Kroll, John Mulaney, Jessie Klein, Maya Rudolph, and many others, not to mention the large number of musical numbers. Is.
One of the wildest adult-animated comedies ever made. There will probably never be another series like Big Mouth that tells the story of coming of age in such a vivid, imaginative and whimsical way.
You

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure, and that defines what happens to it You And Netflix. After poor ratings on Lifetime, the series was thrown into the trash heap. Still, after being rescued by Netflix and committed to a second season, the streaming service was rewarded for its risk as the crime-thriller exploded in popularity following its Netflix debut.
Watched by millions of people around the world, the series has maintained a strong viewership season after season. However, given the story of Joe Goldberg, played by Penn Badgley, it makes tremendous sense that it is coming to a natural conclusion after five seasons.
After destroying countless lives, will Joe Goldberg finally face his deadly match in Season 5? Will he be able to see inside the prison cell, or will he be six feet under by the end of the series? We can’t wait to find out.
cobra kai

Starting life as a popular YouTube Original, Netflix quickly responded once the company removed all of its original content. This ensured that Cobra Kai would continue as a Netflix original. Since joining Netflix, the show has gone from strength to strength and has gained a massive fan following around the world.
The series defines everything great about cheesy and over-the-top American television, with an equally spectacular score that takes every spectacular moment to the next level.
Bigger and bolder than every season that came before it, Cobra Kai will end with the end of Sekai Taikai, and perhaps Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence can put an end to their long-standing rivalry.
squid game

While there were signs that Squid Game would be a popular series, no one expected it to become a global phenomenon.
Watched by millions around the world, the explosive popularity of the Korean thriller has seeped into every pore of pop culture since its launch in 2021. From modded games to YouTube and even Netflix creating their own competition based on the series’ concept, the world has gone crazy about Squid Games.
Will the final two seasons live up to the hype of the first season? That remains to be seen, but we know we’ll be here for the ride.
stranger things

Set against the backdrop of a small Midwestern town and 80s nostalgia, no one expected a short sci-fi horror series to become one of Netflix’s flagship franchises and one of the most culturally influential shows of the streaming era. Will be made. Not only has the series been influential to streaming, but the show has helped launch the acting careers of many of the hottest young artists, like Millie Bobby Brown, and re-launch the careers of actors like David Harbour.
Given the status quo in streaming, very few shows on streaming networks last long enough to have a definitive ending. And while Netflix will have further plans for the franchise, at the very least, this is the end of the story of Hawkins, Indiana, and the characters we’ve grown attached to over the past decade. We can’t even pretend that few shows have had the same impact on pop culture as Stranger Things, and given the number of originals produced by Netflix over the past decade, there’s no doubt that Stranger Things is the most significant of the group. It’s about to end.
Where does Netflix go after Stranger Things? What will be the next major series for the streamer? We look forward to seeing what happens next.
