Netflix this week (June 9-15, 2024) plans to add 12 new TV shows and movies to its streaming lineup. Here’s the three most interesting, in my humble opinion:

My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman: Season 5
The CBS/NBC late night legend continues his post-retirement gig with interviews with Miley Cyrus and Charles Barkley. About the only thing that Miley and Sir Charles have in common is a penchant for the provocative. So you can bet that the Netflix studios will be sizzling. Hope Dave can handle these two. Debuts Wednesday, June 12.

Bridgerton: Season 3 Part 2 — (Netflix Series)
Season three of the sudsy British historical romance will wrap on Thursday, June 14, with the remaining four episodes. Bridgerton is not my cup of tea, if you will, but I’m told the final installments will continue the tale of Queen Charlotte, Penelope, Colin and all the ribald clan. Debuts Thursday, June 14.

Doctor Climax (Netflix Series)
Normally, I write pithy summaries of the upcoming shows but I don’t think I can top this description provided by Netflix for its new series, Doctor Climax: “In ’70s Thailand, a dermatologist unexpectedly starts a mass sexual awakening after becoming Doctor Climax, a taboo-defying newspaper columnist.” Even wilder, the series is based on a true story about the columnist whose answers to reader questions apparently tickled a few fancies. Debuts Thursday, June 13.
