6 Must-Watch TV Shows Releasing in July 2026 on Prime Video, HBO Max, Apple TV+ and More
Elle
Amazon Prime Video is taking fans back to where it all began with Elle, the Legally Blonde prequel series. Set in 1995, the show follows 16-year-old Elle Woods during her high school years, long before she became the iconic lawyer fans know and love. Lexi Minetree steps into the famous pink shoes for the lead role. The series premiered on Prime Video on July 1. Even better for binge-watchers, all eight episodes of Season 1 were released at the same time.
Silo
If you're into sci-fi thrillers, Silo is back with Season 3 on Apple TV+ starting July 3. The new season opens with its first episode, while the remaining installments arrive every Friday through September 4. Rebecca Ferguson returns as Juliette Nichols, who survives her ‘cleaning’ but comes back with memory loss as new dangers loom over the underground community. The season also travels centuries into the past to reveal how the silos first came to exist.
Little House on the Prairie
Dust off your bonnets because Little House on the Prairie is riding back onto screens! The Netflix's series premieres on July 9, with all eight episodes dropping at once for an easy binge. Inspired by Laura Ingalls Wilder's beloved books and based on the third novel in the series, this new take is described as “part family drama, part epic survival tale, and part origin story of the American West.”
The Five-Star Weekend
If you're in the mood for mystery, friendship, and a gorgeous beach backdrop, The Five-Star Weekend should be on your watchlist. Starring Jennifer Garner as food influencer Hollis Shaw, the eight-episode series follows her as she invites friends from different stages of her life to her Nantucket home after a personal tragedy. Based on Elin Hilderbrand's bestselling novel, the series now premieres July 9 on Peacock, a week earlier than originally planned, with all eight episodes dropping at once.
The Hawk
If Happy Gilmore had a midlife crisis, it might look a little like The Hawk. Premiering July 16 on Netflix, the 10-episode comedy stars Will Ferrell as washed-up golf legend Lonnie Hawkins, who's convinced he has one more championship run left in him, even if nobody else agrees. His family says it's game over, but Lonnie is swinging for golf's Grand Slam anyway. Best of all? All 10 episodes drop at once, so you can binge every hilarious shot, slice, and comeback attempt.
Stuart Fails to Save the Universe
Bazinga... sort of! Stuart Fails to Save the Universe brings The Big Bang Theory world back with a wild new adventure. The 10-episode spinoff follows comic bookstore owner Stuart Bloom (Kevin Sussman), who accidentally triggers a multiverse disaster after breaking one of Sheldon and Leonard's quantum devices. His mission? Fix reality before everything completely falls apart. The series kicks off with its premiere on July 23 on HBO MAX, with new episodes arriving every Thursday after that.
