Numerous TV shows and movies are leaving Netflix in December, including Nightflyers, a sci-fi series from Game of Thrones creator George R.R. Martin. But since that show is leaving on December 2, there may not be enough time to binge it. Drama lovers will probably have better luck making a dent in Royal Pains since that series is hanging around through the very end of the year.
Some of the other titles leaving this month include Pain & Gain, Darkest Hour, The Commuter, Trolls, and Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken. The Flash is also leaving this month, but who will miss one of 2023’s worst superhero movies?
Our roundup of everything leaving Netflix in December 2024 is below. Our picks for the month are in bold.

Our top pick for December 2024
Royal Pains (2009)
64%
7.2/10Much like Suits, Royal Pains had a long run on USA Network that ended just under a decade ago. Unlike the former, this series is exiting Netflix at the end of December. So that gives binge-watchers 31 days to watch 104 episodes if they want to watch a light and breezy medical drama.
The show follows Hank Lawson (Mark Feuerstein), an ER physician who damaged his career after a patient died under his care. Hank’s medical skills don’t go unnoticed during a trip to the Hamptons, where a wealthy patron encourages him to stay and become a doctor for the rich and powerful. Jill Casey (Jill Flint), a local hospital administrator, convinces Hank to split his time between the wealthy patients and a new free clinic for people who can’t otherwise afford medical care. Thus Hank has one foot in each world as he rebuilds his life and decides what he really wants to do.
