What’s new on Paramount+ in May 2023

Blair Marnell

If you subscribe to Paramount+ only for the Star Trek original series, then you’ve been fed well for the past few years. But you’ll still have to wait until June for the second season of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. As for May, there aren’t many new original series debuting this month unless you’re really into reality shows like The Family Stallone. Fortunately for fans of scripted series’, new episodes of Rabbit Hole, Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies, and Fatal Attraction are coming throughout the month.

Cinema lovers should keep an eye out for George Miller’s Three Thousand Years of Longing, an unexpected love story about an unfulfilled genie played by Idris Elba, and the modern woman who frees him, as portrayed by Tilda Swinton. But the full list of everything coming to Paramount+ in May 2023 is below, and our recommendations are highlighted in bold.

If you're a subscriber to Peacock, then you may have noticed the wide variety of live sports content on this streaming service. And that's fine if you love sports. Besides, Peacock has more sporting events than NBC could ever put on a single cable channel. But if you're a cinema lover, the beginning of May is a great time to enjoy the latest movies on Peacock. Original shows are a bit light this month, but Mrs. Davis is still running fresh episodes and there's a new comedy, Bupkis, that features Pete Davidson in the role he was born to play: himself!

Read on for the complete list of films, series, and live sporting events that will be available on the streaming service throughout the month, as well as everything else coming to Peacock in May 2023.

Everything leaving Hulu in May 2023
The cast of LA Confidential.

If Hulu simply had the films and television series of 20th Century Studios and other mature fare that just couldn't fly on Disney+, then it would still be one of the best streaming services. Fortunately, there's something new on Hulu every month and it's not just limited to films or programs owned by Disney or 20th Century Studios. There are a number of movies and TV shows on loan from other studios. But at the end of the month, some of these selections are going to leave.

We believe that if you're paying for Hulu then you should be getting your money's worth. And if you plan ahead, you can still catch your favorites before they make their exit. To help you manage your time, we’ve put together this list of everything leaving Hulu in May 2023. Our picks are in bold, and all you have to do is find the opportunity to watch them.
