The June Bank Holiday weekend is finally here.
Here are five new additions to Netflix to check out this weekend.
1. Always Be My Maybe
Childhood friends Sasha and Marcus have a falling out and don’t speak for 15 years. But when Sasha, now a celebrity chef in Los Angeles, returns to her hometown of San Francisco to open a new restaurant, she runs into her old pal – a happily complacent musician still living at home and working for his dad. Though the two are reluctant to reconnect, they soon find the old sparks — and maybe some new ones — are there.

Based on a true story that gripped America, When They See Us will chronicle the notorious case of five teenagers of colour, labeled the ‘Central Park Five’, who were convicted of a rape they did not commit. The four-part limited series will focus on the five teenagers from Harlem: Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise. Beginning in the spring of 1989, when the teenagers were first questioned about the incident, the series will span 25 years, culminating in their exoneration in 2002 and the settlement reached with the city of New York in 2014.
3. Killer Ratings
The true-life story of a Brazilian TV host who literally killed for ratings – and used his crime TV show to cover up the grizzly truth.
4. Good Girls: Season 2
In their second season, the women – played by Retta, Christina Hendricks and Mae Whitman – come face-to-face with the consequences of their criminal behaviour.
5. Chopsticks
An under-confident but talented girl, who is side stepped at every stage of her life, seeks out an enigmatic con to help recover her stolen car from a crazy, goat-loving Mumbai gangster. In the process, she finds her confidence and place in the sun.
