Mr. Robot is logging off Netflix early next year, taking all four acclaimed seasons with it—so there’s a narrow window to binge Rami Malek’s breakout hacker thriller before it disappears. Originally a USA Network hit from 2015 to 2019, the award-winning series won’t be available on the platform much longer.

Heads up if you were planning a Mr. Robot binge over the holidays: the Netflix clock is almost out. All four seasons are leaving right after New Year's, so if you want to finally see what all the fuss was about (or revisit those wild twists), now's the moment.

The quick version

  • Leaves Netflix on January 3, 2026 (spotted by What's on Netflix)
  • 4 seasons, 45 episodes total
  • Originally aired on USA Network from 2015 to 2019
  • Created by Sam Esmail
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 94% average across all seasons; Season 1 sits at 98% with critics
  • Awards haul includes Primetime Emmys, Golden Globes, and a Peabody, plus a dedicated cult following

If you missed it the first time: Mr. Robot follows Elliot Alderson, a brilliant but isolated cybersecurity engineer who moonlights as a hacker. An elusive agitator recruits him into a crew with a very big, very messy goal: tear down corporate America, including the very company Elliot gets paid to protect. The deeper he goes, the more he has to wrestle with his own ethics and whether the people pulling the strings are actually on the level.

The show got raves its entire run, and those scores weren't just hype. It stayed sharp all the way through, and Season 1 in particular is one of those lightning-in-a-bottle debuts that critics love to point to.

Rami Malek's turn as Elliot wasn't just good TV; it basically launched his big-screen stretch. Post-Robot, he jumped into high-profile films like Bohemian Rhapsody, No Time to Die, and Oppenheimer.

So, yes, this is the standard streaming-license shuffle, but the takeaway is simple: if Mr. Robot has been on your list, you have until January 3 to make it happen.
