Your Honor Bryan Cranston New On Netflix This Week May St E

Your Honor is now streaming – Picture: Showtime.

Happy Sunday, and welcome to your (belated) weekly roundup of everything new on Netflix for the final week of May 2024 and the first of June. It’s been a busy week with, likely due to a big dump of titles lined up for the first of the month. Here’s your rundown of everything new on Netflix worth watching this week and weekend. Plus, we’ll look at what’s been trending in the top 10 charts over the past seven days.

Did you miss any of the new arrivals from last week? You’d have missed over 20 new titles in total, including the excellent sitcom Act Your Age and the new Netflix Original series Tires.

As mentioned, we’re about to enter a new month, so if you’re looking for the complete rundown of what’s in store, go here.


What to Watch on Netflix This Weekend

Scavengers Reign (Season 1)

Number of episodes: 12
Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Animation, Adventure, Drama
Cast: Sunita Mani, Wunmi Mosaku, Bob Stephenson
Writer: Joe Bennett, Charles Huettner
Runtime: 24 mins

Netflix has added several HBO shows over the past year, but this is an entirely different unprecedented license. For the first time in the United States, Netflix is getting a Max Original series in the form of Scavengers Reign, the beloved animated series from Joseph Bennett and Charles Huettner. What makes this addition so different is that it comes with a campaign to get Netflix to save the show from cancellation and renew it for a second season.

Feeling like an extended season of a Love, Death, and Robots episode, the Certified Fresh series has you following the crew of a deep space freighter who has crashed and landed on a dangerous planet.

We’ll be pitching some questions to the showrunner and executive producer of this show next week but if you want to see this show come back, you need to watch.


Your Honor (Seasons 1-2)

Number of episodes: 20
Rating: TV-MA
Language: English
Genre: Crime, Drama, Thriller
Cast: Bryan Cranston, Hope Davis, Michael Stuhlbarg
Writer: Peter Moffat
Runtime: 57 min

Another superb licensed show touching down on Netflix today is both seasons of the Showtime drama series, which is headlined by Heisenberg himself, Bryan Cranston.

In this series, which I believe is his best role post-Breaking Bad, Cranston plays a New Orleans judge who becomes entangled in the crime world while trying tor protect his son.


Godzilla Minus One (2023)

Director: Takashi Yamazaki
Cast: Ryunosuke Kamiki, Minami Hamabe, Yuki Yamada, Munetaka Aoki, Hidetaka Yoshioka, Sakura Ando

Last year’s highly-rated Godzilla movie from Japan is getting a surprise Netflix release for the first of the month, not only in the United States but in most countries around the world.
