Your Netflix Watchlist Is About to Shrink — 11 Originals Disappearing in April & May 2026

If you’ve been putting off watching some of your saved titles, now is the time to hit play. Netflix is quietly removing 11 Original movies, series, and specials between April and May 2026 — and some of these are genuinely worth your evening. Here’s everything leaving, broken down so you can prioritize fast.

Why Do Netflix Originals Leave?

Surprised to see an “Original” disappearing? You’re not alone. The truth is, many titles branded as Netflix Originals are actually licensed acquisitions — international series, anime, and stand-up specials that Netflix bought exclusive streaming rights to for a fixed number of years. When that window closes, so does your access. For more on the streaming world, check out our latest OTT coverage on TechnoSports

Reference: All 11 Titles Leaving Netflix

Leaving in April 2026

Magical Andes — A visually stunning South American travel documentary spanning Argentina to Colombia, following five locals with deeply personal ties to the Andes mountains. Perfect for a relaxing background binge.

Demetri Martin: Demetri Deconstructed — Licensed on a tight two-year deal, this witty stand-up hour from the dry-humor comedian is heading out just as quickly as it arrived.

Sirius the Jaeger — A slick P.A. Works anime set in 1930s Imperial Tokyo, pitting vampire hunters called “Jaegers” against the undead in a race to find a supernatural relic. Great for action anime fans who love historical settings.

The Ruthless — An Italian crime epic starring Riccardo Scamarcio, tracing a boy’s brutal rise from poverty to becoming Milan’s most feared ‘ndrangheta mob boss in the glitzy 1980s. Think Italian Goodfellas.

Fern Brady: Autistic Bikini Queen — Scottish comedian Fern Brady delivers a brilliantly unfiltered set covering her late-in-life autism diagnosis, aging, and modern relationships. One of the sharper stand-up specials Netflix has hosted in recent years.

Leaving in May 2026

NASCAR: Full Speed — This high-octane Drive to Survive-style docuseries is jumping ship to Prime Video. It offers raw behind-the-scenes access to the 2023 NASCAR Cup Series Playoffs — catch it before it moves. Fans of sports docuseries will love our coverage at TechnoSports.

Super Me — A wildly inventive Chinese fantasy thriller about a struggling screenwriter who can pull priceless antiques out of his nightmares into real life — until gangsters come knocking.

It’s Bruno! — This Emmy-nominated, bite-sized comedy (15 min/episode) follows Malcolm and his beloved puggle Bruno through the hilarious, absurd conflicts of Brooklyn neighborhood life. A genuinely charming quick binge.

Rachel Feinstein: Big Guy — New York comedian Rachel Feinstein holds absolutely nothing back as she tackles marriage, firefighter husbands, overbearing mothers, and getting older. Warm, sharp, and very relatable.

Mob Psycho 100 — Not the anime, but the live-action Japanese adaptation. It follows Shigeo “Mob” Kageyama, a psychic teenager suppressing god-like powers while working for a fraudulent exorcist — awkward, funny, and surprisingly touching.

Black Space — A gripping Israeli psychological thriller that begins with a masked school shooting and unravels into a dark mystery about secrets hidden inside an encrypted social media app. The most binge-worthy drama on this list.
