The UK’s most anticipated upcoming seasons of TV shows

Having your favourite show renewed for another season can often feel like music to your ears.

But as streaming services churn out new seasons seemingly quicker than ever, it’s not easy to determine which shows flopped and which ones we want more of.

So, as the year draws to a close and we look forward to 2023, which shows do we eagerly anticipate the return of?

Online casinos comparison service CasinoAlpha looked at the number of Google searches for upcoming seasons of TV shows to find out which ones are the most anticipated in the UK.

The most anticipated TV show seasons are as follows:

12. YOU (Season 4) – 19,000 monthly searches

Hello again, You. The fourth season of the franchise will see our charismatic killer assume the new identity of university lecturer, Professor Jonathan Moore. Fans eagerly search 19,000 times a month on average for the upcoming fourth instalment, which looks to be set in Paris, based on the previous season finale.

YOU Season 4 is set to be released on Netflix in two parts, the first of which will aptly be available ahead of Valentine’s Day, on February 10, 2023. The remaining episodes will air a month later, on March 10.

11. Bridgerton (Season 3) – 20,000 monthly searches

Season 3 of Shonda Rhimes’ British period drama Bridgerton, averages 20,000 searches every month.

The third season is expected to centre around Colin Bridgerton and Lady Whistledown’s romance, taking inspiration from the fourth book in Julia Quinn’s series – Romancing Mister Bridgerton. While a release date has not been confirmed, fans can expect to catch season three of the show on Netflix at some point in 2023.

10. Ginny and Georgia (Season 2) – 22,000 monthly searches

Sarah Lampert’s American comedy-drama Ginny and Georgia, has fans searching for a follow up season 22,000 times every month.

The Netflix series which premiered in February 2021, follows the story of 15-year-old Ginny, who behaves more maturely than her 30-year-old mother, Georgia as they settle down in a small New England town.

In April 2021 it was confirmed that the show, which was watched by around 52 million subscribers, would be renewed for a second season. Debra J Fisher, the show’s executive producer and writer, confirmed that season two has officially wrapped, which means it could grace our screens as early as December 2022.

9. Invincible (Season 2) – 22,000 monthly searches

The adult animated superhero series Invincible sees people searching 22,000 times every month for a second season of the show, which is exclusive to Amazon Prime Video.

The only animated show in the list, the comic book adaptation follows 17-year-old Mark Grayson’s struggling transition into a superhero, under the guidance of his father Omni-Man, the most powerful being on the planet.

In April 2021, Amazon confirmed that the show would be renewed for a second and third season on their platform, although a release date has not yet been confirmed.

8. Ted Lasso (Season 3) – 23,000 monthly searches

The American sports drama starring Jason Sudeikis in the title role has audiences searching 23,000 times a month for a third series.

The first two series, which are exclusive to Apple TV+, follow Ted as an American college football coach who is hired to coach an English Premier League football team, despite having no experience with the sport.

At the end of Season 2, we saw “Nate the Great” Shelley take on a coaching job with West Ham, the club owned by Rebecca’s nasty ex-husband. The upcoming third season will likely see West Ham face off against Ted’s team, Richmond AFC. Season 3 has experienced delays and currently has no official release date, but it should be on our screens by late 2022 to early 2023.

7. Outer Banks (Season 3) – 26,000 monthly searches

Teen drama Outer Banks has fans searching a whopping 26,000 times a month for season three of the show.

The season two finale left fans on a cliff hanger, when it was revealed that John B’s (Chase Stokes) presumed dead father Big John is very much alive. The third season of the Netflix show is likely to explore how this will play out when John B learns of this surprising news.

Outer Banks Season 3 was confirmed way back in December 2021, and while a release date has not yet materialized, the attractive bunch are expected to return to Netflix at some point in 2023.

6. The Crown (Season 5) – 28,000 monthly searches

Netflix’s royal biopic following the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, The Crown Season 5, receives 28,000 searches per month.

The previous season saw the beginning of Diana and Charles marital breakdown, as well as the resignation of Margaret Thatcher’s role as British Prime Minister. The upcoming fifth season has received a mixed reception from critics and will be the first season to air after the deaths of Prince Philip in April last year and Queen Elizabeth II in September this year.

The fifth series timeline will begin in 1991, with Imelda Staunton cast in place of Olivia Colman, as an older Queen Elizabeth II. The Crown Season 5 will be available to stream on Netflix from November 9, 2022.

5. The Mandalorian (Season 3) – 30,000 monthly searches

Star Wars spin-off The Mandalorian, has fans searching a whopping 30,000 times a month for its upcoming third series.

The series stars Pedro Pascal as the interstellar bounty hunter, alongside his companion Grogu (aka Baby Yoda) as they travel to Mandalore five years after the events of Return of the Jedi. The show’s creator John Favreau confirmed that The Mandalorian Season 3 will be available to stream on Disney+ from February 22, 2023.

4. Line of Duty (Season 7) – 33,000 monthly searches

BBC police drama Line of Duty receives 33,000 searches per month in the UK for its unconfirmed seventh season.

During the show’s most recent season, which concluded in May last year on BBC One, we finally got an answer to who H (aka The Fourth Man) actually is – corrupt police officer Matthew “Dot” Cottan.

Creator Jed Mercurio has spoken ambiguously about the future of the show and has been unable to give a definitive answer of whether it will return for a seventh season.

3. Clarkson’s Farm (Season 2) – 35,000 monthly searches

Starting off the top three, Clarkson’s Farm Season 2 receives 35,000 searches per month in the UK.

The docuseries which premiered on Amazon Prime Video last year, follows former Top Gear presenter Jeremy Clarkson, as he attempts to run a farm in the countryside with no previous farming experience.

Season 2 of the show is set to follow Clarkson in his second year on Diddy Squat Farm, alongside returning fan favourites Caleb, Charlie and Gerald, as he looks to diversify into new areas of farming.

Amazon Prime Video confirmed that the second season of Clarkson’s Farm will be released on their platform in early 2023, however an exact date has not yet been confirmed. A third season is also already in production.

2. Stranger Things (Season 5) – 66,000 monthly searches

Coming in second place, Stranger Things Season 5 receives a staggering 66,000 searches every month in the UK alone.

The most recent fourth instalment of the show concluded with a battle against the season’s antagonist, Vecna, who was able to survive and who is sure to return in season five.

Filming of the fifth and final season of the supernatural series is not set to start until 2023, according to the show’s main star, Millie Bobby Brown, who plays Eleven. Unfortunately for fans, this could mean having to wait until early 2024 before they can see how the creators decide to wrap things up for our teenagers and the residents of Hawkins.

1. Squid Game (Season 2) – 75,000 monthly searches

Taking the top spot as the most highly anticipated upcoming TV show season Squid Game Season 2 receives 75,000 searches every month in the UK.

The first season of the Korean survival drama saw desperate contestants compete in deadly children’s games in the hope of winning a life-changing cash prize. The show quickly became Netflix’s most successful series and later became a household name worldwide.

Netflix released a ten-second teaser in June this year, confirming that the show will return for a second season. As of yet, there is no confirmed release date, however, the show’s creator Hwang Dong-Hyuk anticipates that it could be on our screens by the end of 2023 or early 2024.

Education Technology Day must be extended to prisons

Typically thought of as being an easy to clean area of the home, hard floors have risen in popularity in recent decades. Globally, hard floors are the most common floor type,2 and research released today by Dyson has uncovered poor cleaning habits that mean hard floors are likely to be harbouring an array of hidden nasties. This comes as 32% of Brits – equating to 21.6 million people in the UK – will use the same dirty mop head for six months or more before replacing it. What’s more, one in 20 also admit to keeping the same mop for a year or longer, and one in 10 think it is acceptable to use the same mop 100 times, spreading dirt around their floors every time they use it. Cross contamination is a primary issue for most common and traditional mopping methods with germs and bacteria further being unknowingly spread around homes as Brits use dirty water to clean floors.3 45% only change the water to new water between rooms, whereas 41% wait even longer until it looks dirty. This could mean that floors are being washed with dirty water, adding more dirt rather than taking it away. Surprisingly, almost one in 10 (9%) even admit to not changing the dirty water at all when mopping. Over a quarter (28%) admit to mopping their floors once a fortnight or less while over half (53%) admit they don’t regularly clean behind appliances and leave dirt to build up for as long as six months at a time. image002.jpg On how to achieve a perfect barefoot clean feel after mopping, Geli Lee, Dyson Engineer and Home Cleaning Expert offers their top tips for eliminating dirt around the home: 1. Create a cleaning schedule to stay on top of dirt build-up. In the last year, there has been a 15% global reduction in the number of people who maintain regular cleaning schedules. 47% of the British public admitted to only being motivated to clean when they spot visible dirt or dust.4 Regular floor cleaning with a wet hard floor cleaner like the Dyson WashG1™ removes more stubborn dirt than vacuuming alone. It is important to have a debris free surface, clear any clutter from the floor or other surfaces. Choose the right machine: Different vacuums are designed for different floor types and home sizes. Some machines will be engineered with hard floors in mind and will struggle on thick pile carpets, for example. Choosing the right machine for your home will make a big difference to the ease and speed with which you’re able to clean your home. Clean your floors ‘little and often’. Washing your floors frequently in areas that receive more foot fall will help to stop dirt building up and getting trodden into your floor. Using a dedicated wet floor cleaner on hard flooring such as the Dyson WashG1 is helpful for this, as the versatile format means it vacuums and washes the floor simultaneously. Cleaning schedules have also become less regimented. In recent years only 41% of people claim to have a regular cleaning schedule, and 60% admit to cleaning reactively; being motivated to clean only when there is visible dirt or dust5. It’s perhaps not surprising, that a fifth of people are still concerned their floors are dirty after they’ve mopped them (22%) and one in four6 feel extremely worried about indoor dust at home. Geli Lee, Dyson Engineer and Home Cleaning Expert reveals why it is important to change the way we mop: “Cleaning your hard floors properly and regularly is important for maintaining a healthy environment around your home. Without a proper cleaning routine, dirt may unknowingly build up and spread around your home. It is evident from our research that current mopping habits mean British households aren’t cleaning their floors as effectively as they should. “From ignoring problem areas where dust and debris build up, cross contamination with dirty water to not replacing mop heads or inconsistent cleaning, current mopping behaviours may be making floors dirtier as opposed to cleaner. Moving away from traditional methods, wet floor cleaners like the Dyson WashG1 simplify the floor cleaning experience and provide a modern efficient and hygienic solution” To help take the guesswork out of mopping, the brand new WashG1 is Dyson’s first dedicated wet floor cleaner that tackles wet and dry debris in one go. Engineered for hygienic cleaning and maintenance, the WashG1 is revolutionising wet floor cleaning, removing the need for multi-products and multi-steps to achieve a barefoot clean feel around the home. To put the product to the test, Dyson have cleaned one of London’s most iconic landmarks The Victoria and Albert Museum. From cleaning the grand marble floors housing the most prestigious exhibits, to cleaning up leftover food in the Gamble Room Cafe, the WashG1 had a dirt busting tour of the museum leaving it spotless. Images can be found here. The WashG1 introduces Dyson’s engineering expertise to cleaning hard floors. With a 1 litre clean-water tank to cover flooring up to 290m2, the Dyson WashG1 uses a combination of hydration, absorption, and extraction technologies to remove wet and dry spills and stains simultaneously. The Dyson WashG1 is available to purchase now from Dyson.co.uk, retailing at £599.99.
