It's make-or-break time for many streaming services over the next 36 months, and there's no time like the present to get started. Ever since Downton Abbey colonized January in 2012, proving it a nice empty space American TV wasn't properly occupying, it's been PBS' favorite debut month. Now, the rest of the streaming world is catching on to the model of January model as ideal for British debuts.
January 2024 is far from the first time we've had every single streaming service with a high-profile British (or British-ish) debut in the same month.

It's a good thing, too, as the winter chill is grabbing both coasts, and the fevers and illnesses are spiking. There's a lot of TV to watch this month; it's best to cuddle up on the couch and stay home.

Let's run down what shows are coming for January 2024, when, and where.
