What to Watch on Hulu in May 2025

Many streaming services push a singular identity through their programming, but Hulu seems content to ladle out a little something for everyone. Like anime? There’s a half-dozen new shows for you. Enjoy reality shows? Hulu has those too. Movies, dramas, documentaries, and more — they’re all here. Here are our three top choices for the most interesting things hitting the streaming service in May, along with a complete listing of all the new programming by date.

Good Bad Things (May 13)

We’re a sucker for a quirky romance, and 2023 indie hit Good Bad Things flew under our radar until now. Danny Kurtzman, an actor with muscular dystrophy, stars as the co-owner of a design firm who downloads a dating app as part of a client pitch, only to unexpectedly be matched with photographer Madi. The pair hit it off, but then have to navigate the complexity of a relationship with complications.

Nine Perfect Strangers: Season 2 (May 21)

This Nicole Kidman vehicle was originally designed as a limited series, adapting the Liane Moriarty novel about a group of people from various walks of life who come to a wellness retreat in California only to find that the guru in charge wants to push the envelope farther than they might be comfortable with. The first season of Nine Perfect Strangers was a huge hit, with critics raving about the performances from the ensemble cast that included Michael Shannon, Regina Hall, and Melissa McCarthy.

The Last Showgirl (May 23)

Pamela Anderson won some of the biggest raves of her acting career for her star turn in The Last Showgirl, where she plays a 57-year-old Vegas dancer who has been performing at the same casino for 30 years, only to find that the show is closing in two weeks and she needs to figure out what to do with her life. It’s an incisive and haunting look at the price women pay with their bodies for their careers.
