Here’s Everything Coming To Netflix, Stan, And Amazon Prime Video In September
A new show from the 'Bojack Horseman' team? Don't mind if we do.
Spring might just be round the corner, but hey, who needs the outside world when you’re living in the age of peak content?
After all, every streaming service on the planet is currently in the process of stepping up to the plate, with Stan, Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, SBS On Demand, Hayu, and Foxtel all swelling out their already jam-packed libraries. Never before has there been so much on offer to consume, from original series, to feature length films, to revivals of the content that made your childhood.
So, draw the curtains to blot out any semblance of natural light, and get right down to watching the best of what streaming in 2019 has to offer.
Undone
Kate Purdy and Raphael Bob-Waksberg, two of the geniuses behind Netflix’s Bojack Horseman, are taking something of a left-turn for their next project, swapping depressed horses for existential crises. Their new show Undone, premiering exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, follows a young woman named Alma (Rosa Salazar, the secret weapon of Alita: Battle Angel) who is haunted by visions of her father (Better Call Saul‘s Bob Odenkirk) after she gets into a near-fatal car accident.
But the plot isn’t the only change of pace for the pair. Rather than the traditional drawn style of Bojack, Bob-Waksberg and Purdy are experimenting with rotoscoping technology, a form of animation that involves painting over the top of real footage.
If you’ve seen Richard Linklater’s A Scanner Darkly, or the Nirvana documentary Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck you’ll know what I’m talking about. If you haven’t, boy are you in for a treat.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians
It’s the Kardashians’ world: we just live in it.
Yep, the world’s most famous reality TV family are everywhere these days, dominating the fields of make-up, fashion, photography, and pretty much every social media app ever invented. But hey, the sisters haven’t forgotten their roots either: Keeping Up With The Kardashians, the show that made their name, is still going strong, now in its seventeenth season.
Tune in for all the drama, excitement, and unpredictability that the years have taught you to expect.

Overlord
Overlord adopts a very simple formula: take the gnarliest elements of war films, and smoosh ’em into the gnarliest elements of zombie horror. The result? A loping, bloodthirsty work of anti-art that follows a group of soldiers stranded behind enemy lines who stumble across those secret Nazi occult experiments you’ve heard so much about.
It’s exactly the kind of gonzo slice of exploitation that the big studios just aren’t making anymore, and anyone tired with Hollywood’s reliance on sanitised children’s fodder should drink it up like the bloody, beautiful broth that it is.

The Spy
Ever wanted to see Sacha Baron Cohen trade in the “My wiffffeee” stuff for a grim Netflix spy thriller about an Israeli secret agent? Well congratulations reader, your extremely specific fantasy has just come true. After years of making a name for himself as a gurning comedy star, Mr. Borat himself is taking things a little more seriously, starring in the six-part Netflix series The Spy.
The trailer doesn’t give much away of the actual plot, but on the face of it, this is a twisty and bloody thriller about international relations and treachery. Get ready for it; shit looks wild.

The Looming Tower
Lawrence Wright’s The Looming Tower, which chronicles the growing threat of terrorist attacks leading up to 9/11, is one of the most urgent and sophisticated non-fiction books of our time. The miniseries of the same name, adapted by Wright himself and mostly directed by one of the creatives behind the acclaimed film Capote, is just as good.
Starring Jeff Daniels, the show is singularly gripping, a series of ever-escalating boardroom conversations occasionally punctuated with scenes of shocking implied violence and horror. It’s great, is what I’m saying, and the only reason you haven’t heard of it yet is that we live in an age where there are 50 great shows dropped every week.
Where you can watch it: SBS On Demand
When you can watch it: September 11
Broad City
What show better summed up the 2010’s than Broad City?
Not only did the episodic comedy give us some of the most defining catchphrases of our age — “yass kween” among them — it also nailed a vibe that feels singularly millennial; the feeling of being lost, alone, and yet always surrounded by people.
Well, all good things must come to an end, and Broad City is drawing to its close very soon: the final episode will premiere on Stan at the end of September, giving you one last chance to hold back a sob and silently salute your kweens.
