What are the biggest TV shows and web series in September 2023? Sex Education season 4 leads the pack of new releases this month, alongside Gen V, a college-set spin-off series based on The Boys. The former sees everyone’s favourite sex therapist Otis Milburn (Asa Butterfield) finally in college, hoping to set up his new clinic while trying not to come across as a loser to his new peers’ awkward glares. Marking the final chapter in the lives of the Moordale Secondary’s sex-obsessed gang, Sex Education returns September 21 on Netflix. Chase that down with a healthy dose of Compound V, as a group of gifted students at Godolkin University compete for the top ranking in Gen V. It premieres September 29 on Amazon Prime Video.

Then there’s The Freelancer, in which an ex-cop turned mercenary heads out on an extraction mission to seek a young girl held captive in the war-torn lands of Syria.

The Wheel of Time season 2
When: September 1
Where: Amazon Prime Video
As it turns out, during the treacherous encounter with the Dark One in the season 1 finale, Moiraine Damodred (Pike) and Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski) were never actually victorious, simply setting him free out into the Two Rivers. While the latter, who was revealed to be the Dragon Reborn, went into hiding to protect those close to him, Damodred was now deemed powerless, having lost her connection to the One Power in the battle. Threats old and new are now making their way towards the Westlands, including the Seachan army, who have the power to control and enslave the Aes Sedai – the women who can channel the One Power.
Well, now that Damodred isn’t capable of channelling it herself, she vows to protect Rand and guide him in using his newfound powers, with some assistance from her loyal Warder Lan (Daniel Henney). Amidst all this, Rand is dealing with an identity crisis, no longer wanting to be a spoke in the wheel and still coming to terms with being the Dragon Reborn. The Wheel of Time season 2 draws heavily from books two and three — ‘The Great Hunt’ and ‘The Dragon Reborn’ — of Robert Jordan’s epic fantasy saga, albeit it won’t follow the events as closely. Much of the original cast returns, including Marcus Rutherford as the blacksmith Perrin Aybara, and Zoë Robins as Nynaeve al’Meara.
The first three episodes of The Wheel of Time season 2 are out September 1 on Amazon Prime Video, after which it will follow a weekly schedule until October 6.
