Divorced Sistas premieres on BET+
While we wait for Tyler Perry's hit shows Sistas and Beauty in Black to return with their highly anticipated latest seasons, the prolific writer-director-producer brings his latest series to the fold. An offshoot of the super-popular series Sistas, the new series Divorced Sistas arrives on BET and BET+ this week. The series centers on a group of friends who are dealing with the ups and downs of divorce in their own ways. Following the premiere on BET on Monday, June 9, Divorced Sistas will begin streaming on BET+ the next day. Don't miss this exciting new hit-in-the-making!
FUBAR season 2 gets back in action on Netflix
He said he would be back, and he is! Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to Netflix in his hit spy action-comedy FUBAR. The second season finds Luke Brenner, a CIA operative who was about to retire before being pulled into one last mission, teaming up again with his daughter Emma (Monica Barbaro) and the whole team. He even reconnects with a former flame! FUBAR season 2 offers the same larger-than-life action and light laughs as the first season, though everything looks even bigger and better! Make sure to catch up and binge-watch season 2 beginning on June 12.
Revival debuts on Syfy
Even though television audiences might be a bit exhausted with revivals these days, this particular title isn't a revival. Based on the comic book series of the same name, Revival premieres on Syfy on June 12, but don't worry, you'll be able to stream the series, too. We have to wait a week, but new episodes of Revival drop on Peacock one week after they're aired. In the series, people who are recently deceased become resurrected on "Revival Day," but a local police offer in this Wisconsin town must look into murder mystery that's complicated by these revivals. Count us in!
The Chosen season 5 arrives on Prime Video
Last but not least, the Last Supper begins on Prime Video this week! The long awaited fifth season of biblical drama series The Chosen finally arrives for streaming on Prime Video, but don't expect to binge-watch the full season when it premieres on Sunday, June 15. Amazon will be giving The Chosen season 5 a three-week streaming release beginning with two episodes this week and three episodes the following two weeks. Thankfully, season 6 and 7 are on the way and have recently received theatrical release dates for the season 6 finale and season 7 premiere.
