The Most Anticipated Series for 2023 on Streaming Platforms

By 2022 there was a Prime Video rebound that none of its competitors could counter. The fact of taking over the franchise of "The Lord of Rings" for a new series gave it a strong boost. Only HBO Max could come close to that impact with "House of the Dragon"; while Netflix defended itself thanks to 'true crime'.

For the coming year there are great certainties and uncertainties. For example, it is not known what will happen to "Squid Game", which dominated during the pandemic confinement; but it is clearly known that Disney +, Netflix, Prime Video and HBO Max set key titles to compete next year.

In the case of Netflix, it is certain that sagas such as "Sex Education", "You", "Elite" or "Lupin" will take hold, in addition to the prequel to "Money Heist" with the character from Berlin. On Disney + the same thing would happen with some series from the Marvel Universe or “The Mandalorian”. HBO Max would play it with "The White Lotus", "Succession" or "The Last of Us"; and Prime Video would go with "The Terminal List."

Next, we leave another 5 series that will be unmissable on streaming platforms by 2023. Some are new creations, others are based on a successful saga, and some are new seasons of the most important series of 2022.

Bridgerton 3 (Netflix)

Netflix found a relief in this period series about English royalty, since it has been one of its greatest successes in recent years. This third season is key because it stands out from the timeline of Julia Quinn's books, material on which the series is based. Although the books followed Benedict's romance, the third season bets on the story between Colin and Penelope, already unmasked in her role as Lady Whistledown. Additionally, Netflix will accompany this season with a prequel about Queen Charlotte, in 2023.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power 2" (Prime Video)

Thanks to its first season, Prime Video had its streaming rebound and became the most watched series of 2022. The season one finale left viewers on edge by unmasking Sauron and revealing Gandalf. Due to the complexity involved in filming, from the production, they indicated that their new season would at least be reaching streaming by the end of 2023.
