New seasons of Squid Game, Stranger Things, and Wednesday headline Netflix’s TV slate in 2025.

“No matter what you’re looking forward to this year, there’s no way to be completely ready for what’s next on Netflix,” said Bela Bajaria, Netflix’s Chief Content Officer, at the company’s “Next on Netflix” presentation.

Squid Game season 3 will stream on June 27. It will be the third and final season of the hit South Korean drama series. Season 3 will pick up after the devastating events in the season 2 finale, as the showdown between Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae) and the Front Man (Lee Byung-hun) comes to a violent conclusion.

After a three-year hiatus, Squid Game season 2 arrived on Netflix on December 26, 2024. Season 2 quickly became Netflix’s second-most-watched non-English TV show, behind Squid Game season 1.

Stranger Things season 5 recently wrapped production after a yearlong shoot. The Duffer Brothers, who were at the Netflix event, said, “This is our biggest and most ambitious season yet. At the same time, we think it’s our most personal story. It was super intense and emotional to film — for us and for our actors.”

Stranger Things season 5 will pick up in the aftermath of the season 4 finale, which saw the Upside Down infiltrate Hawkins. The popular Netflix show previously revealed the titles for the eight episodes in season 5. These include The Crawl, The Vanishing of ___, The Turnbow Trap, Sorcerer, Shock Jock, Escape from Camazotz, The Bridge, and The Rightside Up. Stranger Things season 5 arrives later in 2025.

I found a free universal TV remote app for iOS and Android that doesn’t spam ads

AnyRemote Universal remote app on iPhone 17 Pro Max

I have been looking for a universal TV remote app that just works without being annoying. Most of the ones I tried had some kind of catch. Some asked me to create an account before I could even connect to a TV. Some showed annoying un-skippable ads before a simple action. A few locked basic controls like volume behind a paywall, while others simply did not work as advertised.

In that search, I recently came across AnyRemote, a free universal TV remote app available on both iOS and Android. It turns your phone into a remote for your TV or streaming device without forcing a login or making you pay for the core buttons.
