will feature some of Alfred Hitchcock’s most popular thrillers, including “The Birds,” “The Man Who Knew Too Much,” “Rear Window” and “Vertigo.” The collection will also include the 2012 film “Hitchcock” — with Anthony Hopkins playing the director in a dramatization of the making of “Psycho” — and the excellent modern Hitchockian horror pictures “Barbarian” and “Us.” Although Hitchcock is perennially popular, there are probably plenty of younger

‘Trainwreck’ Season 1

Starts streaming: June 10

This new documentary series looks back at various infamous events, covering the bad choices and mounting mistakes that resulted in major disasters. The first episode, “The Astroworld Tragedy,” tells the story of the 2021 Houston music festival in which multiple concertgoers were crushed to death. The first season’s remaining episodes — to be released weekly — cover a range of topics, including the rise and fall of the former Toronto mayor Rob Ford, the toxic work culture at American Apparel, the “Balloon Boy” hoax and more. The approaches of these documentaries vary, from serious feature-length inquiries into terrible crimes to shorter takes on more lighthearted topics — including one about the nightmarish luxury boat trip

as the “Poop Cruise.”

‘The Waterfront’ Season 1

Starts streaming: June 19

Much like the writer-producer Kevin Williamson’s teen melodrama series “Dawson’s Creek,” his latest show combines elements of soap opera with ample amounts of coastal small town local color. “The Waterfront” is set in Williamson’s home state, North Carolina, and follows a prominent family that has fallen on hard times. The iron-fisted patriarch, Harlan Buckley (Holt McCallany), is struggling with health problems and alcoholism but is unwilling to relinquish his empire — partly legitimate, partly criminal — to his disappointing children. Jake Weary and Melissa Benoist play the next-generation Buckleys, who feel frozen in their father’s imposing shadow. Though the series is filled with torrid affairs, drug trafficking and inconvenient murders, it is just as much about life in a fishing village, where everybody knows everybody.

‘K-pop ****** Hunters’

Starts streaming: June 20

What if a superstar singing trio was also, secretly, a band of righteous warriors, carrying on a tradition that dates back centuries? That is the premise of this animated film about a chart-topping K-pop girl group named Huntrix, whose members belong to a lineage of mystical warriors who use the power of music — plus some skillful swordplay — to find and destroy demons. When the demons start fighting back with their own popular boy band, Huntrix is under pressure to come up with a fresh and exciting new sound. Directed by Chris Appelhans and Maggie Kang, “K-pop ****** Hunters” mixes supernatural adventure with backstage showbiz comedy, telling a story that takes seriously the deep pleasures of pop music, fandom and sisterly bonding.

‘Squid Game’ Season 3

Starts streaming: June 27

The South Korean television sensation “Squid Game” comes to an end with this third season, arriving just six months after a Season 2 that ended with multiple cliffhangers. Set on a mysterious island — where desperate people try to win money in a series of potentially deadly children’s games — the show last season featured a players’ revolt against the tournament’s cruel guards and masked master. Season 3 picks up immediately after that rebellion’s tragic failure, which may have broken the spirit of Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), a former winner who returned to the games with the goal of ending them. The big question for these final episodes is whether Gi-hun and his allies can regain the will to keep fighting, to prove their point that people do not have to be ruled by fear and greed.
