 - Deprecated behavior of :meth:`Series.dt.to_pytimedelta`, in a future version this will return a :class:`Series` containing python ``datetime.timedelta`` objects instead of an ``ndarray`` of timedelta; this matches the behavior of other :meth:`Series.dt` properties. (:issue:`57463`)
 - Deprecated parameter ``method`` in :meth:`DataFrame.reindex_like` / :meth:`Series.reindex_like` (:issue:`58667`)
 - Deprecated using ``epoch`` date format in :meth:`DataFrame.to_json` and :meth:`Series.to_json`, use ``iso`` instead. (:issue:`57063`)
