What to watch on Netflix MAY 2025?

We've selected the Top 5 series that stand out among the May offerings. If you're looking for something fresh, engaging, and well-made, this list is just for you. Get comfortable – an exciting month on Netflix is ahead.

Four Seasons

Premiere: 1st May 2025

A contemporary adaptation of the iconic 80s film. Tina Fey, Steve Carell, and Will Forte play three friendly couples facing significant changes in their lives — divorces, new relationships, career breakthroughs. “Four Seasons” is a blend of humour, nostalgia, and brilliantly written dialogue, all presented in a light yet substantial style. Perfect for watching with a glass of wine or during a lazy afternoon on the couch.

Sirens

Premiere: 22 May 2025

Julianne Moore and Milly Alcock in a black comedy set in an exclusive oceanfront resort. The smooth surface of luxury quickly starts to crack when hidden conflicts, intrigues, and class tensions come to light. “Sirens” is a visually stunning series — perfect for getting the most out of TVs with strong HDR — but also very well-written, with a distinct touch of irony. A great pick if you enjoy good productions that play with the convention of “the world of beautiful people with dark secrets.”

And since we're on the subject — if you really want to immerse yourself in this beautifully crafted world of luxury resorts and menacing secrets from "Syren", it's worth ensuring you have the right gear.
The series is full of subtle details, deep colours, and contrasts, which only make a full impression on a good screen with HDR.

Forever

Premiere: 8 May 2025

“Always” is a story about two childhood friends who cross paths again after years. They seem like adults, carrying different experiences, yet the same emotions return faster than they would like. It’s a series that takes its time in telling the story. It allows you to feel every unspoken gesture, every glance that says more than words. “Always” is a bit like an old photograph – somewhat blurred, yet still full of life. Perfect for those evenings when you just want something calming, genuine, and close to home.

New Edition: Rhythm + Flow: Poland

Premiere: 14 May 2025

Polish edition of the global music hit. New artists, real competition, and a jury that knows the rap underground inside out — Bedoes 2115, DZIARMA, and Sokół. “Rhythm + Flow: Poland” is not just a music show, but also a record of the history of the Polish rap scene seen through the eyes of young talent. If you enjoy authenticity, charisma, and really good music at a high level, this program should be high on your list.

Love, Death & Robots – Season 4

Premiere: 15 May 2025

Among all the May premieres, we focused on one continuation — and it's one that truly deserves attention. "Love, Death & Robots" is back with its fourth season, which means one thing: visual and emotional madness at the highest level.
If you have a modern television and are looking for a series that will make your screen showcase its full potential, you couldn't be in a better place. Short, intense animated tales about the future, technology, monsters, and human obsessions impress both in terms of visuals and sound. Realistic renders, psychedelic lines, Dolby Vision, HDR, full surround — everything here is operating at top gear.
Each episode is a completely new world, new emotions, and plenty of opportunities to simply marvel at what can be squeezed out of technology today.

May on Netflix is looking really good — new series, great stories, and plenty of excitement. Whether you're in the mood for something light, something with a thrill, or maybe something that just looks good on the big screen, there’s definitely plenty to choose from this month.
