We have selected the Top 5 series that stand out from the May offerings. If you are looking for something fresh, engaging, and well-made, this list is just for you. Settle in comfortably – a really interesting month is coming up on Netflix.

Four Seasons

Premiere: May 1, 2025

A contemporary adaptation of the cult classic from the 80s, Tina Fey, Steve Carell, and Will Forte play three friendly couples facing major changes in their lives — divorces, new relationships, career breakthroughs. “Four Seasons” is a mix of humor, nostalgia, and well-written dialogue, all delivered in a light but meaningful style. Perfect for watching with a glass of wine or during a lazy afternoon on the couch.

Sirens

Premiere: May 22, 2025

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

And speaking of that — if you really want to dive into this beautifully created world of luxury resorts and sinister mysteries from “Sirens,” it's worth ensuring you have the right equipment.
The series is full of subtle details, deep colors, and contrasts that only truly make an impression on a good screen with HDR.

Forever

Premiere: May 8, 2025

“Forever” is a story about two childhood friends who cross paths again after many years. Supposedly adults, supposedly with a different baggage of experiences, yet — the same emotions return faster than they would like. It’s a series that doesn’t rush to tell its story. It allows you to feel every unspoken gesture, every glance that says more than words. “Forever” is a bit like an old photograph — somewhat blurred, yet still full of life. Perfect for those evenings when you just want something calm, genuine, and close.

New Edition: Rhythm + Flow: Poland

Premiere: May 14, 2025

The 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 talents. If you appreciate authenticity, charisma, and really good music at a high level, this program should be high on your list.

Love, Death & Robots – Season 4

Premiere: May 15, 2025

Among all the May premieres, we focused on one continuation — and it's one that truly deserves attention. “Love, Death & Robots” returns with its fourth season, and that 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 show its full potential, you couldn’t have made a better choice. Short, intense animated stories 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 plays at maximum capacity.
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 looks really good — new series, great stories, and a lot of emotions. Whether you feel like something light, something thrilling, or maybe something that just looks good on the big screen, there is definitely a lot to choose from this month.
