When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Want to find yourself something new on Netflix this week, for a binge-watch or just an evening's entertainment? I'm on the case. As part of my job as What to Watch's streaming editor, compile weekly lists of the best new additions that Netflix releases. This week, I'm looking at new shows, movies and specials that'll release on Netflix between Saturday, May 31 and Friday, June 6. Many of the Netflix Originals I pick end up on our list of the best Netflix shows and best Netflix movies. Not all of them but I want to give you multiple options depending on your taste. Netflix's overall list this week had quite a few returning shows but I wanted a balance of original and popular ones, so there's a fair blend here. There's lots of crime, but that's Netflix for you. So let's find you something to watch on Netflix this week: We begin the week in Spain, for a six-part crime drama about a former spy called Sara. Woman in the Shadows is about this woman who forces herself to return to the intelligence game because she wants to get revenge for the death of her son. However her task sees her having to confront some uncomfortable facts about who her son really was. Releases on Tuesday, June 3 Shaquille O'Neal probably needs no introduction, but the famous basketball player has since his sporting days proven just as successful in business. And his new docuseries coming mid-week explores that side of him. Power Moves is a part-sport, part-business docuseries about Shaq's time leading the Reebok Basketball brand. He tries to revitalize it using his knowledge and passion for the game as well as his financial and branding acumen. Releases on Wednesday, June 4 A beloved though also divisive drama series returns to Netflix this week with Ginny & Georgia season 3, which gets all ten episodes of its new run at the same time. The show is about a mother and daughter (and the mother's other child) who try to find a way to settle down after being on the run for many years. In the season 2 finale, Georgia was arrested for murder, so season 3 will show Ginny trying to free her. Releases on Thursday, June 5 Shane Gillis' home-made workplace comedy Tires returns this week. The first season was made and funded by the divisive comedian and it was successful enough to get Netflix to create a second. Tires is about the workers of an auto shop who struggle to keep in business despite the incompetent and nervous owner, and the slacking attitude of everyone else. Season 2 follows them struggling to come to terms with unexpected new success. Releases on Thursday, June 5 Another Korean action series lands on Friday, June 6 with Mercy for None, which is set among Seoul's seedy criminal underbelly. Mercy for None tells the story of Gi-jun, who was a mob enforcer but left his brother and that life (and the city) behind over a decade ago. However when his brother is killed, Gi-jun returns to the city to find the murderer, a journey which involves fighting lots of the gang members. Releases on Friday, June 6 His partnership with Netflix mostly focuses on TV shows, but prolific creator Tyler Perry has a new movie arriving on Friday, June 6 which he wrote and directed. Straw is about a single mother called Janiyah whose daughter is sick. Janiyah is struggling to keep caring for the child and something happens which pushes her to the edge. Releases on Friday, June 6 We travel to Australia for our final series of the week, which is based on a book by Jane Harper. The Survivors stars Charlie Vickers and Yerin Ha and it's set in a fictional town in Tasmania. The Survivors is about a young boy who leaves said town after the mysterious death of two children and the disappearance of a third. Fifteen years later he returns to the town, this time with a wife and young baby in tow. However another murder takes place, and it sparks off an investigation which seems linked to the last crime. Secrets are revealed which affect the man and his family. Releases on Friday, June 6

Philly's new interim commerce director brings nearly two decades of city experience to the role
Power Moves is a recurring series where we chart the comings and goings of talent across the region. Got a new hire, gig or promotion? Email us at philly@ A management shakeup is taking place at a key Philadelphia government agency. The Commerce Department underwent a change in leadership, with former Commerce Director Alba Martinez stepping down and longtime city gov employee Karen Fegely taking her place. Plus, local startups are getting the chance to show themselves off through accelerators and pitch competitions this spring. Software company Ideate won the Demo Pit competition at the Philadelphia Alliance for Capital and Technologies' Phorum conference last month. The HiveBio Accelerator, which is focused on support for underrepresented life sciences founders, selected its first cohort. Check out all the details and more power moves below the chart, where we look at the top 10 desirable skills for jobs right now and how many job postings request each skill. Longtime city gov employee appointed acting commerce director Mayor Cherelle Parker appointed Karen Fegely as acting commerce director earlier this month. Fegely is taking over the position from Alba Martinez, who announced her departure from the Commerce Department in March to produce an original musical. The Commerce Department's role is to help economic development happen by creating initiatives to increase accessibility and equity, Fegely told This includes creating opportunities for Philadelphians to build wealth through a sustainable career, owning a business, owning property and more. 'Philadelphia is really well-positioned to do that,' Fegely said, 'to be in a place where we grow together.' Fegely has almost 18 years of experience working in the city's Department of Commerce, most recently as deputy commerce director of policy and strategic initiatives. She was also previously the deputy commerce director of neighborhood business services. Fegely now oversees initiatives that the Commerce Department already has in place, such as the Small Business Catalyst Fund and the PHL Open for Business initiative, which aims to streamline access to business resources. The goal is to provide one-on-one assistance to businesses, but also partner with orgs across the city that can support the business community in Philly, she told 'We have all the right ingredients,' Fegely said. 'It's just doing more and bigger, and making sure we're connecting to people, that people know to come to us for help.' Ideate wins PACT Demo Pit, will pitch at mid-Atlantic conference this fall Rahmi Halaby, founder of early-stage startup Ideate, won Best in Show at Phorum 2025, securing a spot to pitch at the Philadelphia Alliance for Capital and Technologies' (PACT) Mid-Atlantic Capital Conference in the fall. Ideate, which is developing a software product to automate operational tasks for designers so they can focus on creative work, was one of six companies selected to pitch at PACT's Demo Pit competition during the conference. The companies were all connected to the theme of AI in the workplace, but ranged in stage. Ideate is currently pre-revenue and pre-product launch, so it felt good to win next to other companies that are further along in development, Halaby told 'What really needs to set us apart is the story that we're able to tell and the vision of the product,' Halaby said. 'To have that recognized was very reassuring.' The company currently has a closed beta product and plans to launch a full product in the fall. Ideate is also raising a $500,000 seed round that it hopes to close in November, Halaby said. 'I'm really excited to, in the coming months, basically have a product that people can fully sign up for and use and save time within their day to focus on the creative work,' Halaby said. HiveBio Accelerator selects its first cohort Ten Philly-area startups were selected for the first cohort of the HiveBio Accelerator, which aims to support underrepresented life sciences founders. The chosen startups include five therapeutics companies, three medical device companies, one digital health company and one biotech supply chain company. 'I'm most proud of the diversity within our underrepresented founder cohort,' said Tia Lyles-Williams, founder and chief innovation officer of HiveBio. 'Of this cohort, eight are BIPOC-led, eight are first-generation-led, seven are woman-led, and seven are immigrant-led. I'm looking forward to working with this impressive cohort and supporting their unapologetic success.' The chosen startups include Ajaya Bio, BioLattice Ophthalmics, Bound Therapeutics, Cerespectus, Higher Medicine, QuneUp, Trevarx Biomedical, Valfard Therapeutics and Vasowatch. The nine-month program will provide mentorship, commercialization strategies, opportunities to meet investors and other resources to the companies. The accelerator program is supported by a $250,000 grant from the Knight Foundation.

Grace Akinyele, Top Charoensombut, Tuhin Das, Josh Freedman and Thomas Tam will participate in a year-long program that starts with an educational curriculum about healthcare for aging populations.

Email us at baltimore@ The Baltimore region's private sector and public agencies keep on bustling despite the now-paused trade war between the US and China, plus tariffs bringing uncertainty to global economy-dependent entities like the port. In true Maryland fashion, there've been a lot of leadership moves in cybersecurity. For example, a local company opened a new operations center in Tel Aviv.

Before this role, Saunders served as the chief information security officer (CISO) and deputy chief information officer at the US Office of Personnel Management. He also worked as the CISO for the federal Small Business Administration. 'I am a big advocate for embracing emerging technologies to help transform and secure organizations,' said Saunders in a press release. 'And I'm a big believer in partnership.

Reed Gusciora. 'It's a strong vote of confidence in the talent and potential we have in Trenton.'
