Disney+ is facing a lean summer lineup with few new shows on the horizon. While the platform boasts a strong library of legacy shows, the lack of new releases, especially from Marvel and Star Wars, raises concerns about its ability to engage viewers through the summer months. The focus on profitability has resulted in a limited release schedule, leading to a reliance on Hulu for fresh content.
Memorial Day weekend is typically a quiet time for streamers, but Paramount+ and Apple TV+ are keeping things fresh with new seasons of two popular shows: ‘Evil’ and ‘Trying.’ ‘Evil’ is a religious-based horror series with a dedicated fan base, while ‘Trying’ is an underrated British dramady about a couple who desperately wants to have a family. While there aren’t many new shows coming out before the end of May, the beginning of June will bring the return of summer favorites like ‘Stranger Things’ and ‘The Umbrella Academy.’
Netflix is adding two new shows this week, including “The G Word with Adam Conover” and “Beef.”
Despite the impact of the WGA and SAG strikes, there are still plenty of highly anticipated shows coming to our screens this summer. From the return of fan favorites like “Stranger Things” and “Cobra Kai” to the intriguing premise of “Black Cake,” there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
This summer’s TV lineup includes a mix of returning shows and new additions. While popular shows like “Stranger Things” and “Cobra Kai” return for their latest seasons, new shows like “Black Cake” and “Supernova” offer fresh and exciting storylines. With a wide range of genres and diverse cast, there’s sure to be a show that captures your attention.
Whether you’re a fan of sci-fi, fantasy, drama, or comedy, there’s something for everyone to enjoy this summer. So sit back, relax, and get ready for some binge-worthy television.
