We share the list of all the shows, movies, and specials coming to Netflix every month, but with as much content as the streaming service releases, it can be hard to keep track of it all. We are here to help with a breakdown of all the new and returning shows hitting Netflix this week, from comedies and dramas to reality shows and docuseries.
Netflix is kicking off June with another huge week, with nine seasons of original shows and 140 episodes of Pokémon the Series. Drama, romance, sports, comedy — whatever you are in the mood for, you’ll probably find it on Netflix this week.

Ginny & Georgia: Season 3 (June 5)
Sure to be one of Netflix’s most-watched shows of the month, Ginny & Georgia season 3 has been described by creator Sarah Lampert as “our most ambitious and explosive season yet.” Considering the season starts with Georgia in an ankle monitor after being charged with murder and her kids’ lives falling apart, we’re tempted to believe her.

I think it’s safe to say that Shane Gillis has fully rebounded from Saturday Night Live firing him after just five days on the job. The controversial comedian has since released multiple comedy specials, has one of the most popular podcasts in existence, and now his Netflix series Tires is returning for its second season this week.
Mercy For None (June 6)
The new K-drama Mercy For None, based on the popular webtoon Plaza Wars, is about a former gangster seeking vengeance for the death of his brother.
The Survivors (June 6)
Finally, if you’re looking for something to keep you on the edge of your seat, The Survivors is a limited series from Australia, based on Jane Harper’s 2020 novel, about the mysteries surrounding a series of deaths in the coastal town of Evelyn Bay.
