If you’re looking for new shows to binge in June, the various streaming services have delivered once again – here are the shows we’re excited to see this month.
If your favourite show has just ended, or you don’t want to watch that old comedy from the 90s again for the umpteenth time and want something new, then the streaming services have come up with the goods.
In June, there are a raft of new and returning shows dropping across the streaming services that you can binge or watch as the new episodes drop.
Here are six of the shows we are most excited to see on streaming in June.
Cape Fear
The 1991 movie of the same name by Martin Scorsese has become a classic psychological thriller, and this 10-part reimagining airing on Apple TV from June 5 aims to do similar. A heavyweight cast including Amy Adams, Patrick Wilson and Javier Bardem also raises the anticipation levels. The plot sees the lives of married attorneys Tom and Anna Bowden turned upside down when Max Cady, the notorious murderer they helped to put behind bars, is let out of prison – and has vengeance on his mind.
Sugar season 2
Apple TV’s neo-noir drama Sugar returns for a second season on June 19. Colin Farrell is back as LA-based private detective John Sugar, who this time takes on a new missing person case – to search for the elder brother of an emerging boxer. Sugar is also still searching for his own missing sister.
The official synopsis for the series adds that Sugar’s investigation uncovers a citywide conspiracy with sinister intentions, leaving the character with the dilemma of how far he will go to do what’s right?
House of the Dragon season 3
HBO Max’s spinoff from Game of Thrones is back for a third outing. The action picks up where season two left off in the midst of the Targaryen civil war, known as the Dance of the Dragons.
Showrunner Ryan Condal has already teased the first episode, which includes the Battle of the Gullet, which he has modestly described as “arguably the craziest episode of television ever made.” You can judge for yourself whether it is or not from June 21.
The Bear
The fifth and final season of The Bear drops on Hulu on June 25. The action picks up the morning after Sydney, Richie and Natalie find out that Carmy has left the kitchen entirely, meaning that the future of the restaurant is in the air again – but is in their hands.
Their task is tough – they face a cash crisis, the threat of a sale, as well as a torrential storm coming in – but they need to pull together with the rest of the team to see if they can achieve their goals and learn what really makes a restaurant ‘perfect’.
Sweet Magnolias season 5
Coming just four months after season four dropped, Netflix is dropping season five of Sweet Magnolias on June 11. This season, the three lifelong best friends, Maddie, Dana Sue and Helen, move from Serenity, South Carolina to New York City after a job relocation. They’ve been through a lot together so far – marriage, betrayal, career setbacks and loss – so what will the Big Apple bring to our heroines?
I WIll Find You
Netflix’s new psychological thriller I Will Find You drops on June 18. The series stars Sam Worthington, Britt Lower and Milo Ventimiglia and is adapted from Harlan Coben’s 2023 novel of the same name.
Sam plays David Burroughs, a man who is serving a life sentence for murdering his son – a crime he did not commit. But when David hears that his son may not be dead after all, he breaks out of prison and plunges, according to Tudum, into “a world of deceit and despair.”
