If you enjoyed The Diplomat, you’ll likely love The West Wing when it arrives on Netflix in December. With The Diplomat season 3 becoming available on October 16, 2025, many fans probably binge-watched all eight episodes very quickly.
Keri Russell plays Kate Wyler, the U.S. Ambassador to the UK, in this series. Kate navigates tricky international situations, builds relationships with others, deals with increasing public attention, and struggles with problems in her marriage. With the season now finished, viewers are looking for their next binge-worthy show, and Netflix might have just the thing.
The West Wing Is Returning To Netflix After Five Years Off The Streamer
Fans are waiting to hear when season 4 of The Diplomat will be released on Netflix. While we wait, those who enjoy political dramas can watch The West Wing, which is returning to Netflix on December 9, 2025 (according to WhatsOnNetflix).
For a long time, you could watch The West Wing on Netflix in the US. However, in December 2020, it moved to HBO Max as one of the streaming service’s first shows. This happened because Warner Bros., which owns HBO Max, had originally licensed the series to Netflix. (It feels like time is flying, doesn’t it?) (Source: WhatsOnNetflix)
Good news for fans of The West Wing! Warner Bros. and Netflix have reached a new deal, bringing the show back to Netflix. It will remain available on HBO Max as well, and Netflix is expected to add more shows and series from Warner Bros. Television in the coming months.
Fans Of The Politics In The Diplomat Will Love The West Wing
If you like the political intrigue of The Diplomat, you’ll probably love The West Wing. It’s a hugely popular show, and that’s largely thanks to its smart writing by Aaron Sorkin and its realistic portrayal of politics in Washington D.C.
The show brilliantly combines its topic with Aaron Sorkin’s signature fast-paced, clever dialogue, which perfectly suits the intense world of politics. Similar to The Diplomat, it presents a more polished and efficient version of politics than what actually happens—and that makes for compelling television.
Debora Kahn, who created The Diplomat, also wrote for The West Wing, and several actors appear in both shows, like Allison Janney and Bradley Whitford. Since The West Wing has seven seasons and is very easy to watch all at once, it’s a great option to fill the time until season four of The Diplomat arrives.
