If you’re anything like me, you always put serious thought into your streaming queue. It’s not that I’m extremely particular—it’s that I always finish what I start, so there’s no point in wasting my time on a show that isn’t going to keep me entertained. That’s why I compiled a list of ten TV shows premiering next month that are guaranteed to have you clicking that “next episode” button.

From Lisey’s Story to Lupin, here are ten must-watch shows coming out in June, according to an entertainment editor.
