Whether you prefer to make a cup of tea and sidle up next to Dana, Maddie and Helen on Sweet Magnolias or ride alongside Aang as he harnesses his powers in Avatar: The Last Airbender, Netflix has something for you in June.
Both beloved series are back for new seasons this month along with a bevy of other returning and new offerings. In a landmark for the program, the radio show The Breakfast Club will begin streaming daily on Netflix.
If you're missing Survivor, the streamer's reality competition series Outlast: The Jungle might just scratch that itch while America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders returns with a new class of athletes. Also in the realm of reality is a docuseries on Michael Jackson's 2005 child molestation trial which famously ended with his acquittal.
In a blend of fact and fiction, The Witness takes the real-life murder of Rachel Nickell and fictionalizes what the brutal act must have been like for the sole witness of the crime: her toddler son. When it's time to vacate the real world, Harlan Coben's newest mystery I Will Find You will most likely find you hooked.
Here are all the shows you need to watch on Netflix in June 2026.

Releasing on the same day as a documentary on the real-life murder of Rachel Nickell, The Witness takes an artistic eye to the aftermath of the crime.
Nickell was stabbed to death in London in front of her toddler son (played by both Jahsaiah Williams and Max Fincham), who was the only witness to the brutal act. What followed were years of investigation, including officers (and his father, played by Jordan Bolger) attempting to learn as much as possible from the young boy about the crime.
The Witness is gut-wrenching and allows viewers to sit with the anguish of both Nickell's surviving partner and son in the years after her murder.
