Even more than animes, Netflix have been pushing their foreign-language dramas, and are taking things to a whole new level in 2018 with 13 new series not in the English language set to hit the streaming service.

Following the success of Dark, there'll be another German drama, Dogs of Berlin, and a host of other European countries will be represented too: French sci-fi Osmosis; an untitled French romcom; a Turkish historical period drama; a Polish spy thriller; a Spanish dark comedy; and a Spanish horror fantasy thriller.

The Asian and South American markets are being targeted heavily too, with two Brazilian shows - political drama O Mecanismo and comedy Samantha! - and an Argentinian drama, Edha, along with a Korean variety show, drama, and historical action thriller.

Air Dates: March 16 - Edha; March 23 - O Mecanismo; others TBC
