Well, they don’t call it ‘Dumpuary’ for nothing. Yes, that term is usually used for the stuff studios dump out in the doldrums of January, but Netflix looks to be carrying it over to February. No notable new movies or series returns, unless you’re a big fan of The Lincoln Lawyer and The Night Agent – of which there are probably many more than most of us realize. The most promising premiere is probably How to Get Heaven from Belfast, a new limited series from the creator of Derry Girls. Otherwise, it’s niche documentaries as far as the eye can see, covering F1, Gordon Ramsay, Eddie Vedder and chess champion Judit Polgár. Oh, and of course, just in time for Valentine's Day, yet another season of Love Is Blind, which, come to think of it, might be all you really need this month.

What’s new on Netflix February 2026 at a glance:

📍Shows: Love Is Blind (Feb. 11), The Lincoln Lawyer season 4 (Feb. 5), The Night Agent season 3 (Feb. 19) 
📍Limited Series: How to Get to Heaven From Belfast (Feb. 12)
📍Documentaries: Queen of Chess (Feb. 6), Being Gordon Ramsay (Feb. 18)

The Lincoln Lawyer season 4

The lawyer becomes the lawyered in the fourth season of this David E Kelley legal drama. Car-based attorney Mickey Haller is framed for murder and must use all his cunning to clear his name against a tough-as-nails DA, played by Constance Zimmer. 

Premieres Feb 5

Queen of Chess

The real Queen’s Gambit? Seems a bit late, but five whole years after the aforementioned Netflix series sparked a renaissance for the royal game, here comes a documentary on Hungarian prodigy Judit Polgár, the greatest female chess player of all-time, who went move-for-move against Garry Kasparov at only 17 years old. Maybe it’ll convince you to dust off the old board you bought back in 2020.

Premieres Feb 6

Matter of Time

A documentary of a Seattle benefit concert put on by Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder to raise awareness for the skin condition Epidermolysis Bullosa, or EB. Come for the stripped-down acoustic performances, stay for important information about a debilitating disease – and an original score from Canadian indie legends Broken Social Scene.

Premieres Feb 9

Love Is Blind

The pod people are back, and looking to see if love can blossom sight-unseen and stay in bloom all the way to the altar, even if they end up with an uggo. Hey, don’t yell at me – that’s basically the whole idea! 

Premieres Feb 11

How to Get to Heaven from Belfast

The creative team behind Derry Girls, including creator Lisa McGee, reunites for this limited series following a group of friends investigating the mysterious death of an old classmate. Looks a bit like Bad Sisters mixed with the brash humour of McGee’s previous show. We’re in!

Premieres Feb 12

Being Gordon Ramsay

In this six-part docuseries, the screaming celebu-chef quiets down long enough to talk about his family, fears and what he’s really like when he’s not berating aspiring cooks on Hell’s Kitchen, while also chronicling his most ambitious business venture yet: a five-restaurant complex atop one of London’s tallest buildings, 22 Bishopsgate.

Premieres Feb 18

 

The Night Agent season 3

You know how traditional network television has shows you’ve never heard of yet are more popular than anything you actually watch? Netflix has them, too. Behold The Night Agent, an action thriller somehow in its third season. Onetime JD Vance portrayer Gabriel Basso as a top-secret FBI agent tasked with sniffing out a mole who’s infiltrated the top levels of the US government. 

Premieres Feb 19

Strip Law

In this new adult animated series, a wet-blanket Las Vegas attorney teams with a sassy magician in hope of bringing a bit of showmanship to his struggling firm. Honestly, it’s hard to see this becoming the next BoJack Horseman or Big Mouth, but it’s got a killer voice cast, including Adam Scott, Abbott Elementary’s hilarious Janelle James, Stephen Root and Keith friggin’ David.  

Premieres Feb 20

Formula 1: Drive to Survive

You’ve seen F1: The Movie, now see F1: The Documentary Series. Racers from the ascendant sport go behind the scenes of the death-defying spectacle.
