Paramount+<\/a> always has plenty of new shows to binge, and this weekend is no exception. The streaming service<\/a> adds new episodes of hit shows every week, and sometimes drops entire seasons to binge. In fact, it just added 93 new movies and shows on June 1<\/a>. These aren’t always new, original shows, either. While Paramount+ adds new shows from Paramount’s networks, like CBS<\/a>, as well as coproductions with international studios, it also brings back older shows, ripe for a binge-watch.<\/p>\n

This weekend, I’ve got three shows worth watching. First, there’s “The Agency,” which is returning for season 2, but this time as a 10-episode binge-drop instead of a weekly release. If you want something to watch next week as well, “Dutton Ranch<\/a>” is a new spinoff sequel to “Yellowstone<\/a>,” and it’s already deep into its first season. Finally, there’s Lena Waithe’s hit series “The Chi,” which is currently in the midst of its eighth and final season.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are the three new to Paramount+ shows you need to binge-watch this weekend. If you need more recommendations, check out everything coming to Paramount+ in June 2026<\/a> for more options.<\/p>\n

‘The Agency’ season 2<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Genre: Spy thriller series<\/p>\n

What’s it about? “The Agency\u201d is adapted from the acclaimed French spy thriller series “Le Bureau des L\u00e9gendes” (or “The Bureau”). It’s set at the CIA’s London office and stars Michael Fassbender as a deep-cover agent named Brandon, though he mostly goes by his codename: “Martian.” His cover and his work life are dangerously intertwined, and in season 2, he will betray the CIA to save the woman he loves (Jodie Turner-Smith).<\/p>\n

Why you should watch it: I’ve seen all 10 episodes of “The Agency” season 2<\/a>, and I loved it. It’s not a perfect show; most of the problems from season 1 are still there in season 2. But this show knows how to build to an explosive finale, and I don’t mean that simply as a metaphor.<\/p>\n

‘Dutton Ranch’ season 1<\/p>\n

\n\"Dutton<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Genre: Neo-Western drama series<\/p>\n

What’s it about? “Dutton Ranch” brings back Cole Hauser and Kelly Reilly in a “Yellowstone” spinoff that’s addictive to watch. They’re reprising their roles as Rip Wheeler and Beth Dutton from the original show, but this time, they’re starting over in Texas. They’re hoping to get away from the baggage of Montana, but there’s still plenty of new drama in the Lone Star State.<\/p>\n

Why you should watch it: “Yellowstone” never really spoke to me, but I’ve been enjoying this spin-off. In my “Dutton Ranch” review<\/a>, I highlighted Ed Harris and Annette Bening as being big reasons I liked it, and so far, they remain the highlights of the show.<\/p>\n

‘The Chi’ season 8<\/p>\n

\n\"The<\/p>\n

Watch On <\/a><\/p>\n

Genre: Drama series<\/p>\n

What’s it about? “The Chi” is arguably to Chicago what “The Wire” is to Baltimore, at least in terms of how it explores life in the city. Created by Lena Waithe, it centers around a large ensemble cast in the Southside of Chicago. In this final season, a murder has rocked some of our cast, while others are struggling with everything from the prison system to the trials and tribulations of parenting.<\/p>\n

Why you should watch it: If you need a series to binge, “The Chi” has you covered with 82 episodes to date, and an 83rd coming on Sunday. Not all seasons are created equal, but more than a few are genuinely great. The one catch is that, unlike “The Agency, this former Showtime series still requires Paramount+ Premium to watch it.<\/p>\n

Stream the first four episodes of “The Chi” season 8 on Paramount+ Premium<\/a> now (episode 5 coming June 21)<\/p>\n
