20 Must-See Shows on Netflix Right Now (June 2025)
‘The Waterfront’ (2025)
Money is everything for the Buckley family in The Waterfront, and their financial empire is on the brink of collapse. Belle (Maria Bello) and her son, Cane (Jake Weary), tried to step in and save the family business while the patriarch, Harlan Buckley (Holt McCallany), recovered from his heart attacks. But now Harlan has retaken control, and he has some extreme ideas to rescue the family from its fiscal calamity.
Unfortunately for the Buckley clan, Harlan’s decision to partner up with drug smugglers draws unwelcome scrutiny from law enforcement. Even the hint of illegal activity may be enough to send this house of cards into the abyss. Cane may want his father’s approval, but how far is he willing to follow Harlan if his choices could put both of them in prison for decades?

‘Scandal’ (2012 – 2018)
Before Shonda Rhimes brought Bridgerton to Netflix, she was the creator of Scandal, a hit drama that ran for seven seasons on ABC. Kerry Washington headlines the series as Olivia “Liv” Pope, a political fixer and the leader of a crisis management team who is considered one of the best in the business.

There is some genuine love between Liv and Fitz, but the scandal of their affair would ruin both of them if the truth ever comes out.
