The Best TV Shows And Movies Leaving Netflix In January 2023

Whether you are pro-New Year's resolution or would much rather just see where 2023 takes you in the coming months, January will still bring with it a little bit of change. The first month of the year's list of titles set to make a disappearance from Netflix is relatively short this time around. Still, there are some real gems here — albeit some pretty campy ones — that we have to say our goodbyes to. And while we're probably all busy trying to squeeze in as many holiday-centric movies by the year's end (anyone want to talk about "Falling for Christmas"?), you might also want to try and squeeze in a couple of the things on this list in-between viewings of "Home Alone" and "Die Hard." Whether over-the-top action films or catty reality shows are your preferred guilty pleasure, there's something here for everyone to lament as we make our way into another year.

There are only a handful of businessmen who have managed to captivate the world with their personality and brilliance. One of those men, the late Steve Jobs, is often first to come to mind when thinking about those who have revolutionized the way the world works. Throughout his life, Jobs has been everything from a genius to a villain, and the 2015 movie, "Steve Jobs" (directed by Danny Boyle with a screenplay by Aaron Sorkin) seeks to pit these two ideas against each other in a bold biographical account of Jobs' climb up the tech giant ladder. 

The movie is based on Walter Isaacson's extremely popular biography, "Steve Jobs," and it follows Jobs from the moment he is set to unveil Apple's very first personal computer, the Macintosh 128K, all the way to the release of the culturally quirky iMac nearly 15 years later. Michael Fassbender portrays the polarizing businessman in a performance that earned him a nomination for Best Actor at the Academy Awards, and he is supported by an impressive cast boasting the likes of Kate Winslet, Seth Rogan, Jeff Daniels, and Michael Stuhlbarg. If biographical dramas tickle your motherboard, then "Steve Jobs" might be worth a watch before it powers down from Netflix on January 15,2023.

The first (and only) time I watched the entirety of the first season of "Yummy Mummies," I was home sick with the stomach flu. Not wanting to invest my time into something too heavy handed, I turned to reality TV to help comfort me through my 24 hour illness. Deciding to watch "Yummy Mummies" started off as more of a joke, but then quickly turned into an obsession as I feverishly (in retrospect, it may have been an actual fever ... ) binged all of the first season in a matter of hours. I simply could not get enough of this Australian reality show that follows the often vapid lives of some of Australia's wealthiest pregnant women. 

To say that "Yummy Mummies" cured me of my ailment may not be an understatement. By the time all of the mummies had delivered their babies, I felt like a new woman. I had experienced something revolutionary as I watched them purchase baby Burberry clothing (it can only be Burberry!), worship Versace, throw disastrously conniving parties, and yell at their husbands while bouncing on their exercise balls during labor. If reality shows that feel more like well-written comedies are your kind of thing, you'd be foolish not to check out one of the best kept Netflix secrets before it leaves the streaming service on January 17, 2023. 

If you have recently just binge watched the entirety of Tim Burton's latest Netflix show, "Wednesday," and are looking for more of everyone's favorite morbid teen, look no further than the 1993 film, "Addams Family Values" directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. While "Addams Family Values" is a direct sequel to the 1991 "The Addams Family," the first film isn't necessarily required viewing in order to enjoy what its sequel has to offer.

Much of Wednesday's spunk as a character originates in this film as viewers get to experience her now-iconic take down of the Camp Chippewa theatrical celebration of Thanksgiving. The film sees Wednesday (Christina Ricci) and her brother Pugsley (Jimmy Workman) get shipped off to summer camp after the birth of their younger brother Pubert (Kaitlyn and Kristen Hooper). Meanwhile, Uncle Fester's (Christopher Lloyd) new wife Debbie (Joan Cusack) tries to murder him in order to collect his inheritance. The film is a near-perfect morbid romp through one of horror's most famous spooky families, and it truly is not one to be missed. It's the perfect thing to watch after "Wednesday" to fill the void in your heart that Jenna Ortega no doubt left there, but don't wait too long. "Addams Family Values" will only be streaming on Netflix until January 31, 2023.  

When "First Blood" was released in 1982, it was a success. Directed by Ted Kotcheff with a screenplay that Sylvester Stallone helped write, the movie tells the story of John Rambo, a Vietnam War veteran who still retains his remarkable combat skills learned during his time serving in the U.S. Army. The first film in the series is a wild ride in which we watch Rambo take on the entire police force of the small town in the state of Washington. Despite being one man, the police force are no match for him as he quickly proves that they are all way in over their heads.

2008 saw the release of "Rambo," the fourth film in the series. This time, Stallone is living in Thailand, but must help rescue a group of Christian missionaries that have been captured in Burma. If you are a Rambo fan who hasn't seen all of the movies in the series, this might be your chance to finish things up. Both the 2008 "Rambo" and its sequel "Rambo: Last Blood," are streaming on Netflix until January 31, 2023.  

Perhaps you've just finished up the spicy second season of "The White Lotus" and are remiss to leave Italy behind, or maybe you just really love a good period drama. Whatever the case, "The Borgias" might be just the show for you to binge before the end of January. Starring Jeremy Irons as Pope Alexander VI, the show's three seasons deliver all sorts of juicy gossip and backstabbing that only the best medieval families can provide. 

Based on the real-life Borgia family, the show details their corrupt politics and complex family alliances as they work to take over the Catholic Church. It is a saucy, period drama that will no doubt add some spice to your end of the year, but if you're hoping to make it through all three seasons, time is of the essence because Netflix is set to abdicate this one from its throne on January 31, 2023.
