Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, Apple TV+: 10 of the best new shows to stream in June
Stick From Wednesday, June 4th, Apple TV+ What do washed-up sports stars do when they've reached the end of the road and are looking for a signpost to redemption? Easy: they just stumble on a young prodigy, preferably from a dysfunctional background and with a few anger issues, and take them under their wing. Pryce Cahill is a former pro golfer – nicknamed Stick – whose career ended 20 years ago, followed soon after by his marriage and his job at a sporting-goods store. With lots of time on his hands and little else in prospect, Pryce encounters Santi, a troubled teenager who happens to be a genius with a golf club. Can Pryce help Santi hit the heights of PGA success that he never reached himself? And does Santi even want success? Owen Wilson stars as Stick in this comedy drama that plays a bit like Hoosiers meets Happy Gilmore. It's from the crowd that brought us Ted Lasso, so nuff said. Ginny & Georgia From Thursday, June 5th, Netflix Mother-daughter relationships can be a bit of a trial, but in the third series of this comedy drama the Miller family faces an actual trial – for murder. Series two ended with Georgia (Brianne Howey), the mom, being arrested on her own wedding day; her daughter, Ginny (Antonia Gentry), faces the dilemma of whether to believe in her mother's innocence or accept the overwhelming evidence against her. What she does know is that she doesn't want her mom to go to prison. Georgia is put under house arrest and made to wear an electronic ankle monitor, while Ginny has to run the gauntlet in the school corridor every day, with the eyes of her classmates burning through her head. Will the Miller family rise to their greatest challenge yet while still delivering some laugh-out-loud moments? You better believe it, peaches. Fubar From Thursday, June 12th, Netflix When it was announced that Arnold Schwarzenegger would be returning for a second series of this comedy spy show, the 'I'll be back' quips came thick and fast. In his first foray into TV territory, Arnie plays the CIA agent Luke Brunner, who has had to defer his retirement for one last espionage job. Now it looks as if the gold-watch ceremony will have to wait a bit longer, as in series two he faces a deadly foe in the form of an old flame, the German spy Greta Nelso, played with suitably over-the-top gusto by Carrie-Anne Moss. In series one Luke was pulled back out of retirement to rescue a fellow CIA operative – who turned out to be his daughter, Emma (Monica Barbaro). The cast members have all talked about how much fun they had making this series – let's hope it's just as much fun for us to watch. We Were Liars From Wednesday, June 18th, Prime Video Take a private island paradise off the coast of New England, add a sprinkle of rich, beautiful, privileged teenagers, top it off with a dash of smouldering passion and jealousy, and you've got the perfect recipe for a murder mystery. Cadence Sinclair Eastman is a scion of the wealthy, influential Sinclair family, and she and her siblings, cousins and close friends – known as the Liars – are spending another idyllic summer on the island, but then something bad happens, and the dynamic within the group changes irrevocably, while the island's unspoken omerta rule suddenly kicks in. Sounds like another variation on the 'I know what you did last summer' trope. It's based on the bestselling YA novel by E Lockhart, aka Emily Jenkins. READ MORE The Buccaneers From Wednesday, June 18th, Apple TV+ Those scandalous American girls are back in polite English society in the second series of the period drama, which is sort of like Bridgerton with a bit of a twang. In the 1870s a group of wealthy and brash young heiresses are sent over from the United States to gatecrash the London social scene and bag themselves husbands, but their extroverted ways quickly clash with the buttoned-up traditions of Victorian society. It's not long before they're setting gentlemen's pulses racing, and sending scandalised dowagers reaching for the smelling salts. In this second series the Buccaneers have become firmly integrated in London life, and Nan has become the Duchess of Tintagel, while Conchita is better known as Lady Brightlingsea. But they're still out to shake up the status quo, all to a fab, completely anachronistic soundtrack featuring Chappell Roan, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga and The Last Dinner Party. The Waterfront From Thursday, June 19th, Netflix The Buckley family are the kingpins of their own fishing empire in a small village on the coast of North Carolina. Their name is on practically every business, shop and restaurant, so they have a bit of a hegemony here. But, beneath it all, business is going downhill, and the family patriarch, Harlan Buckley (Colt McCallany), must raise a couple of million to turn things around. He gets into bed with some shady drug smugglers, but as things spiral out of control and the body count piles up, it's looking more and more like the Buckleys will be sleeping with the fishes. Countdown From Wednesday, June 25th, Prime Video A dead Homeland Security agent, a secret taskforce and a terror plot that could end in millions of deaths: maybe I won't have another consonant after all, Rachel, thank you very much. Jensen Ackles from The Boys heads the cast of this action-thriller series created by Derek Haas, the mind behind the FBI series and all its variants. Ackles is the LAPD cop Mark Meachum, who is recruited into the taskforce after the Homeland Security guy is murdered in broad daylight. The murder is just the tip of the iceberg, and soon Ackles and the team are racing to stop the bad guys from turning the citizens of LA into DOA. The Bear From Thursday, June 26th, Disney+ Chef-patron Carmy Berzatto is back in kitchen hell in the fourth series of the foodie dramedy, and he's still in pursuit of excellence in the former sandwich shop in Chicago that he inherited after the suicide of his brother, Michael. Carmy, a Michelin-star chef, has turned the dive into a fine-dining restaurant, but success is far from a done deal. Money is running out, and the kitchen is still in chaos and turmoil. Can Carmy create a calmer atmosphere in this culinary crucible? Jeremy Allen White stars as Carmy, with Ayo Edebiri, Oliver Platt and Jamie Lee Curtis among the cast. Squid Game From Friday, June 27th, Netflix How much of a gaming junkie do you have to be to go back into a game that could end in your death? In series two of the hit Korean series – Netflix's most successful non-English-language series – Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) went back into the game with a clear mission to take down the faceless organisation behind this murderous, macabre theme park, but in this third and final series he finds himself back in the Squid Game dorm after the failure of his attempted rebellion – and this time the games have been taken to even deadlier levels. Gi-hun must survive this last round and also outwit his treacherous adversary the Frontman as the tournament reaches its bloody, adrenaline-pumping climax. Smoke From Friday, June 27th, Apple TV+ The Rocket Man star Taron Egerton heads a strong cast in this new crime series about an arson investigator in pursuit of two serial pyromaniacs. Joining Egerton in the series – based on a true story – are Rafe Spall, Jurnee Smollett, Anna Chlumsky, Greg Kinnear and John Leguizamo. Egerton plays the investigator, with Smollett as the detective who becomes his reluctant partner; they'll have to find common ground if they are going to stop the firestarting spree before it gets completely out of control.

What's New On Netflix In June 2025? 9 Best TV Shows And Films To Stream This Month
It's officially the first month of summer… meaning, naturally, it's time to hole up indoors to stream a host of new Netflix goodies. The weather might be warming up, but with the return of some TV mega-hits and a host of gripping new documentaries, it's safe to say we're still going to be racking up some hours on the streaming giant this month. From a brand new crime drama and timely documentaries to the return of some of our fave bingeable watches, there's something for everyone this month. Here are our seven top picks to stream this June… Tell me more: Compared to the likes of Squid Game (more on that in a sec) and Stranger Things, Ginny & Georgia is one of Netflix's more low-key hits – its second season is still among the most-watched originals in the platform's history. Centring around a tight-knit small family including the titular mum and her teenage daughter, the comedy-drama sees them planning to restart their lives in a new town following a death… and it quickly emerges that this is a family with secrets. Netflix says: 'It's always been Ginny and Georgia against the world, but the world has never come for them quite like this. 'Now, Ginny needs to see where she stands when push comes to shove – is the two of them against the world something Ginny really wants to sign up for?' Tell me more: Tyler Perry's loyalty to Netflix is showing no signs of wavering, having released new series She The People on the streamer only last month. He's linking up with the streamer yet again for a new thriller movie, starring Taraji P. Henson, who portrays a single mother struggling to care for her unwell daughter before she's pushed to the brink while trying to hold it all together. Netflix says: 'A single mother watches her desperate day spiral into chaos, becoming the prime suspect in a crime she never meant to commit – and suddenly, her survival depends on the one thing she's never been able to trust: the people around her.' Tell me more: In November 2021 10 people died and hundreds more were injured after a crowd crush at Travis Scott's Astroworld festival in Houston, Texas. After a slew of lawsuits followed, the impact of the tragedy is still being felt by many. The latest instalment in Netflix's Trainwreck anthology attempts to unpack what happened at the music event four years later. Netflix says: 'Featuring exclusive interviews with survivors, paramedics and festival staff, this documentary examines the 2021 Astroworld tragedy and its aftermath.' Tell me more: It was the story that gripped the world for four agonising days in June 2023 when a submersible went missing in the Atlantic on a dive to the Titanic wreckage. This new Netflix original documentary unpacks how the tragic mission ended in catastrophe and claimed five lives. Netflix says: 'OceanGate's Titan tourist submersible imploded in 2023 on a deep-sea dive to the Titanic. This documentary details how a bold vision ended in tragedy.' Tell me more: The first season of this Arnold Schwarzenegger action comedy, introduced us to Luke and Emma Brenner, a father-and-daughter duo who were each hiding from the other that they're actually CIA agents. After drawing in viewers first time around, the story continues in the new season, which has been extended even further. Netflix says: 'Luke Brunner is a veteran CIA operative who, up until recently, was on the verge of retirement. 'After his last mission in saving another operative - who just so happened to be his daughter - he's back and face to face with new villains. This one is an old flame from Luke's past who threatens to destroy the world… if she doesn't destroy his life first.' Tell me more: After waiting three whole years between seasons one and two, the third and final season of the K-drama phenomenon is already back, just six months after we devoured its action-packed return. We can expect to find out what happened after that nail-biting insurrection (and shocking sudden death) and find out if Gi-hun, once and for all, will have what it takes to bring down the Squid Game empire. Netflix says: 'A failed rebellion, the death of a friend, and a secret betrayal – Squid Game season three picks up in the aftermath of season two's bloody cliffhanger. Although Gi-hun is at his lowest point yet, the Squid Game stops for no one. 'So Gi-hun will be forced to make some important choices in the face of overwhelming despair as he and the surviving players are thrust into deadlier games that test everyone's resolve. With each round, their choices lead to increasingly grave consequences.' Tell me more: After season one gripped us with its intimate and – at times – shocking look behind the scenes into the high pressure world of the famous American football cheer squad, season two is set to follow the 2024-2025 cohort chasing a coveted spot. Expect higher kicks, bigger splits and pom poms aplenty. Netflix says: 'Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders season two will chronicle the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders from nerve-wracking auditions and gruelling training camp all the way through the high-energy NFL 2024–25 season.' Tell me more: From Dawson's Creek, The Vampire Diaries and Scream creator Kevin Williamson, this brand new crime drama follows a prominent North Carolina family as their fishing empire is threatened. Supposedly inspired by true events, it's already been called an Ozark-meets-Bloodline, starring Holt McCallany, Maria Bello, Melissa Benoist and Jake Weary. Netflix says: 'A prominent North Carolina fishing family wades into treacherous waters to keep their crumbling business empire afloat.' Tell me more: As families still seek justice for the devastating West London tower block fire that claimed the lives of 72 people, those at the heart of the tragedy examine what happened and the investigation that followed. Netflix says: 'Survivors, witnesses and experts tell the story of the tragic fire that engulfed a residential tower block in London — and the investigation that ensued.'

What to watch on Netflix in June: From three returning fan-favourite series to a harrowing Grenfell documentary
June is here, which should mean pub gardens, bare legs and evenings spent sunbathing in the park. But this is Britain – so we're probably in for another few weeks of soggy barbecues and arguing about putting the heating back on. Thankfully, Netflix has a bumper crop of new, binge-worthy TV to see us through. From three fantastic returning series (Alexa, play Thunderstruck) to a thoughtful and touching feature-length documentary, here are the releases we'll be pressing play on this month. Ginny and Georgia Release date: 5th June This offbeat dramedy and two-time #1 watched show on Netflix returns for a third outing. Georgia has just been arrested for murder during her wedding, ruining her fairy tale ending and putting the spotlight on the Millers like never before. It's always been Ginny and Georgia against the world, but the world has never come for them quite like this. Now, Ginny needs to see where she stands when push comes to shove… Straw Release date: 6th June A single mother's world unravels in chaos as she struggles to care for her ill daughter. Pushed to the brink by a world that seems not to acknowledge her, she's forced to confront impossible choices given there's no help to be found.

America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders Release date: 18th June Emmy Award-winning director Greg Whiteley and the team behind Cheer return with this insightful look into the iconic Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders squad. Season 2 will follow the 2024-25 team, kicking off at auditions and training camp and continuing all the way through the NFL season, with plenty of drama (and cut-throat training) along the way. The Waterfront Release date: 19th June Inspired by true events, this new series dives into the lives of the flawed Buckley family, as they attempt to retain control of their crumbling fishing empire in North Carolina. As illness and treachery rock the family, will the next generation be able to cling to their lucrative business, and how far will they go to ensure they do so? Grenfell: Uncovered Release date: 20th June This feature-length documentary examines the disturbing errors and oversights that led to the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. By uncovering actions taken by business and government years before the tragedy, the film highlights how the tragedy could have been prevented, and 72 lives could have been saved. There's testimony from survivors, bereaved family members and firefighters in this compelling and emotional watch. Squid Game Release date: 27th June The third and final season of Squid Game follows Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) after losing his best friend in the game and being driven to despair by The Front Man (Lee Byung-hun), who was hiding his true identity to infiltrate the game. Gi-hun persists with trying to end the murderous antics, while the Front Man continues imposing terrifying tasks, and the surviving players' choices lead to graver consequences with every round.
