Though TV buffs were treated to a wide variety of content in June, the quality wasn't always there. New seasons of Black Mirror and Jessica Jones were uneven at best, and closer to home, Netflix's Leila started off strong but stumbled in its second half. July is a bit light on the number of offerings, but it's somewhat made up by the fact that some of June's more even efforts — Big Little Lies, and Euphoria — will continue with weekly episodes. That said, it still has some big names, thanks to the return of Stranger Things, Suits, Money Heist, and Orange Is the New Black — some for the final time — alongside a bunch of new ones across genres such as superhero, sci-fi, mystery thriller, and courtroom drama.
Here are upcoming TV shows on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and beyond in the month of July.
When: July 4
Where: Netflix
Having spent nearly two years off air, though it's only been just over half a year in the show, the Upside Down is back to torment the small American town of Hawkins for a third time, with a bit of help from the outside. The now grown-up teenagers — making the most of their school-free summer of 1985 thanks to a brand-new mall — don't always get along, but they must band together to survive the return of the Mind Flayer.

Netflix's longest-running live-action original is set to close out its run with a seventh and final season, which finds Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling) having trouble learning how to readjust to life outside prison, while those still at Litchfield must deal with the same old: life in prison.
