Each month, streaming services drop a number of shows in order to make room for new shows. In most cases, it's no big deal – but if it's something that's been sitting on your watch list forever and you miss your window, it can be a bit of a nuisance.

Below, we take a look at what's leaving Acorn TV in February 2022. Where possible, we've offered alternative viewing options or suggestions for similar programming in case you miss the show in question.

Prefer to focus on what's new and coming soon? Here's the February 2022 premiere list for Acorn TV, and here's a look at 5 brand new Acorn TV Original shows coming out later in 2022.

Sisters, Season 1 – Italy – 2017 – In this Italian-language mystery, a young lawyer returns to her Italian hometown to investigate the disappearance of her younger sister. As she’s drawn further into the case, she realises the main suspect may be closer than she thinks.

It stars Emilia Fox as a disillusioned British spy-turned-detective living in the heart of Italy. Trouble seems to follow wherever she goes, but her career as a spy has left her with all the right skills for investigation.After her years of work in MI6, she heads to Umbria to visit her sister Isabel (Tara Fitzgerald, Game of Thrones)…and decides to stay. While she's trying to start her new life in Italy, she finds herself involved in investigation after investigation. Her bravery, nosiness, and desire for justice prevent her from standing back when bad things happen.
