3 underrated shows on Netflix you need to watch in June 2025
One of Netflix's biggest shows calls it quits at the end of the month. Squid Game wraps up its historic Netflix run with the third and final season. Can Gi-hun defeat the Front Man and shut down the games for good? Other popular shows this month include Ginny & Georgia season 3 and Tires. Beyond the popular shows, Netflix has an entire world of underrated shows. Keep reading, and you'll find three good recommendations below. Recommended Videos We also have guides to the best new shows to stream, the best movies on Netflix, the best movies on Hulu, the best movies on Amazon Prime Video, the best movies on Max, and the best movies on Disney+. Animal Kingdom (2016-2022) Animal Kingdom is a gritty crime thriller that ran for six seasons on TNT. With all due respect to TNT, the ratings were never anything impressive. Now that Animal Kingdom is on Netflix, it will gain more eyeballs, so expect the show to find itself in the top 10. Based on the Academy Award-nominated film of the same name, Animal Kingdom revolves around Joshua 'J' Cody (Last Breath's Finn Cole), a 17-year-old teenager forced to relocate to Southern California to live with his estranged relatives. Led by Janine 'Smurf' Cody (Ellen Barkin), J's relatives carry out heists and other illegal activities. To remain in the house, J must pull his weight, meaning he'll have to partake in the family business. Watch Animal Kingdom on Netflix. Muscles & Mayhem: An Unauthorized Story of American Gladiators (2023) For those who have seen American Gladiators, this eye-opening documentary will raise a few eyebrows about what went wrong. For those new to the topic, American Gladiators was a competition show from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s that pitted average contestants against 'gladiators,' costumed athletes with elite speed, strength, and agility. The stylish show was extremely entertaining thanks to games like Tug of War, Powerball, and the Eliminator. The real drama existed behind the scenes, as the steroid-fueled gladiators went to war with the network. It's a fun rise-and-fall documentary about an enjoyable show. Watch Muscles & Mayhem: An Unauthorized Story of American Gladiators on Netflix. The Flash (2014-2023) Forget Ezra Miller's movie. The best version of The Flash aired on CW. Grant Gustin starred as Barry Allen, a forensic investigator who gains superhuman speed after a lab explosion. As The Flash, Barry becomes the de facto superhero of Central City. By utilizing the 'villain of the week' format early on, The Flash established a lightheartedness and delightfulness that was nonexistent in the 2023 movie, making for an entertaining viewing experience. Unfortunately, the CW dropped all of their superhero shows, so no more new episodes will be coming. Watch The Flash on Netflix.

Netflix just added an 'underrated' crime thriller show that's already crashed the top 10 — and there are 6 seasons to binge-watch now
Thriller fans are being well-served by Netflix this month. Along with NBC's "Blindspot," the streaming service recently welcomed family crime thriller "Animal Kingdom" to the platform — and it looks to be a hit with streamers. For the uninitiated, "Animal Kingdom" is a gritty drama that originally ran for six seasons between 2016 and 2022, airing on TNT in the U.S. It's based on the 2010 Australian movie of the same name, and throws us in with a chaotic, dysfunctional family who operate a criminal enterprise out of Southern California. "Animal Kingdom" was one of the many new things added to Netflix at the start of the month, and it's been a mainstay in the Netflix Top 10 ever since. Over a week after it arrived, it's still sitting at the #7 spot, not far behind Netflix Originals like "The Survivors," "Ginny & Georgia" and "Sirens." Trying to decide whether to stream "Animal Kingdom" on Netflix? You can find a little more info about the show and hear what viewers have to say about the streamer's new arrival. TNT's "Animal Kingdom" is a crime drama based on the 2010 Australian movie of the same name. The show revolves around the Cody family. We follow young Joshua "J" Cody ("Peaky Blinders" star Finn Cole), who moves in with his estranged relatives after his mother dies of an overdose The Codys, as it turns out, run a criminal enterprise out of Oceanside, California, with J's tough grandmother Janine "Smurf" Cody (Ellen Barkin) at the helm. The dysfunctional Cody dynasty funds its lifestyle through (among other things) heists, and J's quickly sucked into this dangerous criminal world of shifting loyalties and secrets. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. In addition to Cole and Barkin, "Animal Kingdom" also stars Scott Speedman, Shawn Hatosy, Ben Robson, Jake Weary, Molly Gordon and Carolina Guerra, among others. "Animal Kingdom" comes reasonably well-recommended. While the series doesn't have a complete critics' rating on the review aggregate site, Rotten Tomatoes, the first two seasons hold ratings of 76% and 80%, respectively, with the site's consensus on the first season reading: "Bolstered by Ellen Barkin's acting prowess, 'Animal Kingdom' is a darkly intriguing, although occasionally predictable, twisted family drama." Fellow viewers, however, rate it significantly higher; the show has an average Popcornmeter rating of 87% and has drawn some very high praise for the acting, the (occasionally predictable) twists and more. Comparisons to "Sons of Anarchy" seem common, too. The show's subreddit is being taken over by newcomers who've stumbled onto "Animal Kingdom" now that it's on Netflix, talking it up, while original fans have been discussing rewatching the show from the start, or hoping that the drama finally gets the reception they believe it's always deserved. Looking through reactions in both places, I've seen the word "underrated" thrown around plenty of times, so I'm not too surprised to see "Animal Kingdom" has continued to be a top Netflix watch in the days since its arrival on the platform. I only just started streaming the show myself (it passed me by the first time around), so I wouldn't want to give my own "Animal Kingdom" verdict just yet. However, from the position of being an "Animal Kingdom" newcomer, I can say that I'm intrigued by what I've seen so far, and I'm keen to see what trouble lies ahead for J, Smurf and the rest of the Cody family across these six seasons. If you're between Netflix binges and you're looking to sink your teeth into a gritty family thriller, one that boasts a cast of very questionable characters, then it certainly feels like "Animal Kingdom" will fit the bill just fine. And with dozens of episodes available to watch right now, it should keep you busy for some time. Not sold on streaming "Animal Kingdom?" We can still help you find your next must-watch show.
