Babylon Berlin is leaving Netflix next month, and subscribers won’t be seeing the fourth season before it goes. The German series premiered on the streaming service in January 2018, and seasons two and three followed. Season four aired on Sky in 2022 but was never released on Netflix.

Created by Tom Tykwer, Achim von Borries, and Henk Handloegten, the series is set in 1920s Berlin and is inspired by the novels by Volker Kutscher. Starring Volker Bruch, Liv Lisa Fries, Peter Kurth, and Matthias Brandt, the Babylon Berlin series follows a police inspector from Cologne trying to take down an extortion ring.

What’s On Netflix revealed the following about the show’s exit from the service:

Usually, with licensing, Netflix manages to pick up the rights for shows for the lifetime of a show that they’re streaming, although it became clear in recent years that would not be the case with Babylon Berlin. We reached out to Netflix on several occasions and various companies involved in the production but we never got a concrete answer on what happened.

Reportedly, a fifth season of the show is being developed. It is unknown if another outlet will pick up Babylon Berlin for US audiences.
