Farzi, The Night Manager, The Consultant, and More: February Web Series on Netflix, Hotstar, Apple TV+, Amazon Prime Video

What are the biggest web series and TV shows in February 2023? Shahid Kapoor's Farzi leads the pack of new releases this month, alongside a Hindi-language adaptation of the acclaimed AMC drama, The Night Manager. The former is created by the helmers of The Family Man, Raj and DK (Raj Nidimoru and Krishna D.K.), following a small-time artist who conjures the ultimate con job, while working out of his grandfather's printing press. Farzi premieres February 10 on Amazon Prime Video.

The series is out February 17 on Disney+ Hotstar.

The CW's The Flash races into February with its ninth and final season. This will hopefully serve as the conclusion for the long-running television-only Arrowverse. In India, the show is slated to debut February 8 on Amazon Prime Video. After making an appearance at The Game Awards 2018, Christoph Waltz (Inglourious Basterds) is now seen as the head of an app-based gaming company, in The Consultant, where he tosses demands that seem to put the employees' lives at risk. The series will be up for streaming on February 24, over on APV as well.

The Flash season 9

When: February 8
Where: Amazon Prime Video

After nine years of heroic service, our Scarlet Speedster is ready to hang up his boots in The Flash season 9. The new chapter picks up a week after the events of season 8, which saw The Flash/ Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) defeating Reverse Flash once and for all. Haunted by visions of an oncoming threat, our hero is plunged into a battle against a deadly group of Rogues, urging him to call upon his meta-human team and save Central City one last time. The upcoming season comprises of 13 episodes, making it the shortest arc in its almost decade-long run.

The Flash season 9 will also bring in a trio of familiar faces from the Arrowverse, including David Ramsey's John Diggle/ Spartan, Keiynan Lonsdale as Wally West/ Kid Flash, and Sendhil Ramamurthy as the haemophilic supervillain Bloodwork. Jesse L. Martin, who plays Joe West is committed to as many as five episodes in this season, while Candice Patton returns to play his on-screen daughter Iris West.

This effectively marks the end of The CW's Arrowverse, which runs separately from the mainline comic book universe. With DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn ushering in a new era in the DC Universe, going forward, all mediums will be interconnected, with the actors being cast to play the same roles across TV series, movies, and animation projects.

Not Dead Yet

When: February 9
Where: Disney+ Hotstar

Gina Rodriguez (Annihilation) plays a forty-something, self-described loser Nell Serrano in Not Dead Yet, who moves back to her old place, hoping to 'restart' her life as a journalist — a job she left for a man, five years ago. While catching up with old friends and living with her new roommate (found on Craigslist) feels thrilling at first, she soon begins struggling with her career. Times have changed, and the only job she could land is in the obituaries, where she spends countless hours recounting the lives of dead people - that is until she discovers her ability to communicate with the dead; specifically, with the people she is writing about.

Based on Alexandra Potter's 2020 novel ‘Confessions of a Forty-Something F**k Up,' Not Dead Yet explores Serrano's mess of a life, which gets a significant boost of morale, once she gets comfortable with the idea of speaking to the dead. Through them, she picks up valuable life lessons, albeit some of them could get her into trouble as well. Rounding out the cast lineup is Hannah Simone (New Girl) as Serrano's colleague/ friend Sam, Rick Glassman as the surprisingly not-so-weird roommate Edward, and Lauren Ash as her boss Lexi.

Not Dead Yet is helmed by David Windsor and Casey Johnson, best known for producing This Is Us and The Real O'Neals, respectively.

The first two episodes of Not Dead Yet premiere February 9 on Disney+ Hotstar. The following episodes adhere to a standard weekly schedule.

Put off by the social inequalities of modern-day India, he decides to become a revolutionary, turning to a life of crime where he can put his skills to work. Thankfully for him, his grandfather (Amol Palekar) runs a printing business, enabling him to use the equipment to make counterfeit money. Plus, he's a pretty good artist, adept at all styles that help him replicate the notations and illustrations on a currency note. Life seems good until a fiery, unorthodox task force officer Michael Vedanayagam (Vijay Sethupathi) is set hot on Sunny's trail.

Farzi centres around the cat-and-mouse game between the two adversaries, whilst introducing new, bigger threats in the form of a local gangster Monsoor Dalal (Kay Kay Menon). Meanwhile, Raashii Khanna (Sardar) plays the junior officer Megha, assigned to help Vedanayagam nab the con artist.

The Night Manager

When: February 17
Where: Disney+ Hotstar

This Indian adaptation of the award-winning Susanne Brier series The Night Manager follows similar plot beats. In it, Shaan Sengupta (Aditya Roy Kapoor) is an ex-soldier, whose peaceful life as a resort manager is thrown into disarray, when he is summoned back into the force by the Indian Intelligence to infiltrate an arms dealer's inner circle and feed them information. Anil Kapoor steps into Hugh Laurie's shoes from the original, to portray the dealer disguised as a business tycoon Shailendra Rungta/ Shelly, who gets a kick out of observing war from a distance, and more importantly, offering the tools to instigate it.

Under intelligence officer and recruiter Lipika's (Tillotama Shome) commands, Sengupta must exhibit himself as an ally and gain Shelly's trust, eventually becoming a trusted guard to the family — gaining front-row seats to all the exclusive parties and meetings with other dealers. Trouble mounts when Sengupta gets romantically involved with Shelly's partner (Sobhita Dhulipala), compromising the entire mission and putting himself at gunpoint.

All episodes of The Night Manager will be available to stream from February 17.

Hello Tomorrow!

When: February 17
Where: Apple TV+

In a pastel-toned, retro-futuristic setting where people jetpack to work, robots clean trash, and neckties tie Windsor knots themselves, Jack Billings (Billy Crudup), a charismatic salesman attempts to revitalise the locals' lives by selling timeshares on the moon. Leading a group of hawkers, he goes door-to-door, offering pamphlets that promise a joyous life on the lunar surface, devoid of aliens and full of dreams. But Billings hides a terrible secret about his ambition, one that could entirely tarnish his relationship with co-worker Joey Shorter (Nicholas Podany).

It is hinted there's something sketchy under those bright promises, as angry customers start demanding the truth. One such character is Alison Pill's (Vice) Myrtle Mayburn, a middle-aged woman who left her entire life behind, hoping to live on the moon. The 10-episode series also stars Hank Azaria (Maniac) as co-worker Eddie, Haneefah Wood as Shirley Stedman, and Jacki Weaver as Billy's mother Barbara Billings.

The Consultant

When: February 24
Where: Amazon Prime Video

A CEO's death at an established mobile game studio heralds the arrival of a fresh, enigmatic consultant Regus Patoff (Christoph Waltz), who turns the tides of the company with new demands. From firing people who smell weird to terminating employees who work remotely, The Consultant serves as a workplace satire that eggs on bosses who invade personal space and make jobs living hell. While things initially appear as a nuisance to his employees, it soon start's getting personal, as Patoff grows in power and starts running the whole company.

Based on the eponymous book by Ben Little, the eight-episode series explores the sinister relationship between employee and boss, as Patoff kidnaps them late at night and plans to fight patrons at a bar — just to test the theory that some workers excel under stress. At the centre of this twisted affair is Natt Wolfe (Death Note) as Craig and The White Lotus-fame Brittany O'Grady as Elaine, a co-worker. Aimee Carrero (The Menu) also appears as Patti, Craig's fiancée.

All eight episodes of The Consultant will be available for streaming February 24 on Amazon Prime Video.
