The Best New TV Shows Of 2024 bridgerton

2024 has been a truly incredible year of TV — and we're only halfway through the year! While we get ready for all the best summer and fall movies to hit our screens, our team at Brit + Co rounded up the best TV shows of 2024 so far so that you can spend time doing what's important: watching them! Snacks and beverages encouraged.

My Lady Jane — Stream On Prime Video

Prime Video

It's no secret that history has done LOTS of people dirty. And while we can't go back in time to change the past, we can reimagine it — and Prime Video's My Lady Jane proves that reimagining can be GOOD. This TV show has everything romantasy fans have been asking for: tension and slow burn, an incredible script, beautiful costumes, and complicated characters. "Give us My Lady Jane season 2," we all say in unison.

My Lady Jane is available to stream on Prime Video and stars Emily Bader, Edward Bluemel, Jordan Peters, Anna Chancellor, Dominic Cooper, Kate O'Flynn, Rob Brydon, Abbie Hern, Isabella Brownson, Robyn Betteridge, Henry Ashton, Máiréad Tyers, Michael Workeye, Joe Klocek, Brandon Grace, and Will Keen.

One Day — Stream On Netflix

Matt Towers/Netflix

One Day gets the award for "Most Devastating TV Show Of 2024." Seriously, if you sobbed uncontrollably in your bed in the middle of the night...you're not alone. The internet hysteria around this series shows how much we crave connection. It also highlights how important it is not to waste time — and to never pass up the opportunity to tell someone you love them.

One Day is available to stream on Netflix and stars Ambika Mod, Leo Woodall, Essie Davis, Amber Grappy, Tim McInnerny, Joely Richardson, Toby Stephens, Eleanor Tomlinson, and Jonny Weldon.

Shōgun — Stream On Hulu

FX/Hulu

Shōgun's popularity — and the fact it moved from a limited series to a multi-season show — proves it's one of the best TV shows of 2024. It's all about the details, and thanks to the rich world-building and complicated characters, every single aspect of this show serves a purpose. And we haven't stopped thinking about the relationships, the politics, and that major cliffhanger since.

Shōgun is available to stream on Hulu and stars Anna Sawai, Hiroyuki Sanada, Cosmo Jarvis, Tadanobu Asano, Takehiro Hira, Moeka Hoshi, and Fumi Nikaido.

The Bear Season 3 — Stream On Hulu

FX/Hulu

Not only did The Bear season 3 give our favorite chefs higher stakes in their careers and their personal lives, but it also gave us a deeper understanding of everyone's backstories, and how much they mean to one another. That insane season 3 ending packed a punch by diving into the affects of Carmy's relationship with Sydney in the past, and his relationship with Jimmy in the future. It's also perfectly teed up season 4, which we're hoping comes sooner rather than later.

You can stream The Bear season 3 on Hulu now. The show stars Jeremy Allen White, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Lionel Boyce, Liza Colón-Zayas, Abby Elliott, Matty Matheson, Ayo Edebiri, and Will Poulter.

Palm Royale — Stream On Apple TV+

Apple TV+

Palm Royale is the perfect TV show for when you want to escape reality, and will have you dreaming of an afternoon by the pool. We're obsessed with how the colorful aesthetic and the life-or-death drama come together to create a show that's pure camp. Read up on the latest Palm Royale season 2 news!

Palm Royale is on Apple TV+ and stars Kristen Wiig, Laura Dern, Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy, Kaia Gerber, Bruce Dern, and Carol Burnett.

Bridgerton Season 3 — Stream On Netflix

Netflix

We know you love Bridgerton, you know we love Bridgerton. Season 3 added even more context for characters like Francesca, Cressida, and Benedict, but it gave Penelope the spotlight she deserved the whole time — and that hopeful, romantic ending made us so emotional! Bridgerton season 4. cannot come soon enough.

All episodes of Bridgerton season 3 is available to stream on Netflix. The TV show stars Nicola Coughlan, Luke Newton, Jonathan Bailey, Simone Ashley, Luke Thompson, Claudia Jessie, Hannah Dodd, Will Tilston, Florence Hunt, and Ruth Gemmell.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith — Stream On Prime Video

David Lee/Prime Video

The TV show version of Mr. & Mrs. Smith takes a different approach to the story than the OG film you know and love. Instead of a married couple hired by separate organizations to take each other out, Maya Erskine and Donald Glover play strangers hired to take other people out. This new take adds new tension, stakes, and drama, and Maya and Donald's chemistry is truly the gift that keeps on giving.

Mr. & Mrs. Smith is available to stream on Prime Video and stars Donald Glover, Maya Erskine, Michaela Coel, John Turturro, Paul Dano, Parker Posey, and Wagner Moura.

Hacks Season 3 — Stream On Max

Jake Giles Netter/Max

It's been a year since old-school comedian Deborah and 20-something comedy writer Ava split when we see them at the beginning of Hacks season 3, and they're both on the cusp of something new. The series provides an energetic and fresh angle to TV we haven't seen in a long time, and we simply cannot get enough.

Hacks season 3 is on Max now and stars Jean Smart, Hannah Einbinder, Paul W. Downs, Megan Stalter, Carl Clemons-Hopkins, Kaitlin Olson, Christopher McDonald, Mark Indelicato, Rose Abdoo, and Lorenza Izzo.

I enjoy every single aspect of a vacation: planning, packing, even the journey itself. But there are few things I love more than settling into a flight with my favorite snacks and a movie. Figuring out exactly what to watch can feel like a hassle when there are dozens of movies to pick from, which is exactly why the Brit + Co team rounded up our favorite airplane movies to watch when you jet off on your own vacay!

Crazy Rich Asians

Warner Bros. Entertainment

Crazy Rich Asians is arguably the best airplane movie of all time (even if some airplanes have started removing it — a travesty!). The story follows Rachel, who joins her boyfriend Nick in Singapore for a wedding...then realizes he's the country's most eligible bachelor. It's got everything we want in our own holiday, including romance, travel, and incredible food.

Ocean's Eight

Warner Bros. Entertainment

I've lost count of how many times I've seen this movie, and it's always a good choice when you want a fun watch! Powerhouse women who team up for the ultimate New York City heist? The Met Gala? Rihanna, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, and Mindy Kaling? Count me in.

Eat Pray Love

Sony Pictures Releasing/Columbia Pictures

Even if your summer vacation doesn't include a trip to Italy, your airplane movie can. Eat Pray Love stars Julia Roberts as Liz, a woman who heads to the other side of the world for some soul searching after she realizes how loveless her marriage is. As expected, there's some very tasty food.

Mamma Mia!

Universal Pictures

Mamma Mia really is the gift that keeps on giving. It's an incredible birthday movie, bachelorette party movie, and airplane movie, all in one. The story follows Sophie, who invites all three of her mother's exes to her wedding to figure out which one is her father. And, naturally, they all sing ABBA the entire time.

Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

Warner Bros. Entertainment/Dungaree Productions

For a nostalgic movie that's all about friendship, growing up, and learning how to stick up for yourself, you HAVE to watch The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, which follows Bri, Carmen, Tibby, and Lena. The girls send a single pair of jeans to one another during their first-ever summer apart.

Under the Tuscan Sun

Touchstone Pictures

Diane Lane stars as Frances, a writer who's in serious need of inspiration after her divorce. But instead of going on her own vacation or trying a new dish, she decides to buy a house in Tuscany for a change of scenery. No big deal!

The Devil Wears Prada

20th Century Studios

Fashion, New York City, and the '00s are always a recipe for success, which is why The Devil Wears Prada is one of my favorite airplane movies. Anne Hathaway stars as Andy, whose life get turned upside down when she starts working for magazine mogul Miranda Priestly.

Barbie

Warner Bros. Entertainment

Margot Robbie's Barbie movie follows the titular doll, who has to navigate the real world when her life in Barbieland starts falling apart. Not only did it become THE movie moment of 2023, but it's also an emotional, fun, and colorful summer movie we want to watch all the time.

Crazy, Stupid, Love

Warner Bros. Entertainment

If you want to laugh out loud on your flight, then Crazy, Stupid, Love is definitely the airplane movie you want to choose! It perfectly executes its multiple storylines, and the ensemble cast (which includes Emma Stone, Ryan Gosling, and Steve Carrell) are pure magic together.

Harry Potter​

Warner Bros. Entertainment

There are few things more comforting than Harry Potter, so if you suffer from in-flight nerves (you're not alone TBH!!), then opt for this classic story about a boy who learns he's a wizard.

POV: You're on day 5 of your hair wash routine, and you're trying to decide whether to dry shampoo, or just try to do a slick back bun that you know will take you forever to get right. With option A, you're left with talc-like texture and heavy buildup in your hair, and option B, you're left nervous that the tight hairstyle might not help your hair thinning.

But what if I told you there were dry shampoos that didn't leave behind all that that heavy residue and buildup? What if there were a dry shampoo that felt lightweight and easy, so you could get ready in 5 minutes? Believe it or not, these actually exist, so you don't have to worry about resorting to that hour-long slick back bun process anymore! I've tried and tested these dry shampoos — some of them being completely talc-free — to give you the easiest hair routine in the morning! Here are the 8 I recommend.

Crown Affair

Crown Affair Dry Shampoo

I was gifted this product a few weeks ago, but I can say that I genuinely have fallen in love with it, and I can't wait to purchase it as it runs out. It's a nontoxic, refillable dry shampoo that comes in powder form. This dry shampoo is incredibly lightweight and blends into my roots seamlessly — so much so, that I forgot I even used it! One of my favorite dry shampoos I've used in recent years. Plus, it's an Allure Best Beauty Product Award-Winner, so you know it's good! Definitely worth the hype!

Vegamour

Vegamour Dry Shampoo

This product is an award-winning dry shampoo, not only because of it's ability to make your hair looks freshly washed, but also because of all the volume it adds to your hair. It makes your roots look fuller and more lifted than before, so you'll get a refreshed do with a little height for the day! It's a great product if you're looking for more volume in your roots alongside a more typical dry shampoo.

Amazon

Batiste Dry Shampoo

This dry shampoo is extremely effective and extremely affordable — it's only $6! I've been using this for years because I go through my dry shampoo really fast, so it's nice to have a cheaper alternative that I can go through quickly and not worry about it being too expensive. Plus, it smells amazing! You'll have fresh hair in no time!

Amazon

Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo

Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo is completely talc-free, so it doesn't have the annoying buildup that a lot of dry shampoos cause. It's designed to completely get rid of excess oil that may accumulate in your hair and on your scalp. It's a great, lightweight option that won't weigh your hair down.

Amazon

Moroccan Oil Dry Shampoo

This dry shampoo is designed with lighter toned-hair in mind! It helps to blend in seamlessly with your lighter hair color, so you don't have traces of dry shampoo left behind for everyone to see. An added bonus with this one? It protects against UV damage! This is a huge plus for me as someone who is very sensitive to UV rays — especially on my scalp. The scent of this dry shampoo is just divine, as well! Grab this one to be protected, look fresh, and smell nice while you're at it.

Amazon

Living Proof Perfect Hair Day

Not only does this eliminate any oil, smell, or buildup, but it's also silicone-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free and cruelty-free — which is very rare in beauty products these days. Add this dry shampoo to your cart immediately to get the job done in a safe and sustainable way, because this product really cleans your hair.

Amazon

Dryer Detox Dry Shampoo

Anyone can use this product because it works effectively for all hair types! It smells so good, and genuinely cleanses your hair. I love to use it on my blowouts because it helps to make my hair looks clean, but also give it that voluminous, bouncy curls that I'm looking for. This one is a favorite of mine that I savor for more special occasions!

Amazon

Kristin Ess Dry Shampoo

We've got an option for all my ladies with darker tones as well, don't you worry! Another amazing aspect to this one is that it's infused with Vitamin C oil which is good for shine, making your hair look healthy, and keeping it from appearing too chalky. Lucious locks are on the way with this dry shampoo!

TV can be the ultimate escape — especially when it features an insane plotline you'd likely never find yourself in IRL. That's the case for Netflix's new dark comedy Sirens, a limited series that dives into the world of socialites, scandal, and power struggles. And the best part is that it all takes place on a HUGE beach property. It's basically Gossip Girl meets The O.C. meets The White Lotus, which totally promises to give us the unhinged drama TV has been missing. Here's everything you need to know about the new TV show— andWhere To Stream The Best New TV Shows Of 2024 (So Far).

What is Sirens on Netflix?

Sirens is a limited series coming to Netflix soon.

But when Devon finds herself at the Kells' beach estate one weekend (with the intention of getting Simone out of there), she realizes Michaela might be more powerful than she expected.

The series is based on Maid showrunner Molly Smith Metzler’s play Elemeno Pea.

Remember your first 4th of July fireworks show? You sat mesmerized looking at the beautiful lights that glittered the sky. You could feel the deep booming noise in your belly and your eyes watered as you tried not to blink. What an amazing moment! As fireworks lovers, we are getting giddy for the upcoming 4th of July festivities. To celebrate Independence Day, we're taking inspiration from Say Yes and making sparkler alternatives that are perfect for your little ones to play with in between rounds of their favorite lawn game. These DIY paper + glitter sparklers sparkle without the sparks!

Brit + Co

Materials:

Brit + Co

– paper

– straws

– glitter

Tools:

– paper cutter (or scissors)

– spray adhesive

– glue stick

Instructions:

Brit + Co

If you don’t have a paper cutter, that is a-okay. Scissors work just as well. Cut your paper in half lengthwise. Then cut slits along one of the long edges to create fringe. Now cut this piece in half. Add a layer of spray adhesive to the tips of the fringe. Do this on both sides of the paper.

Brit + Co

  1. Cut your piece of paper in half lengthwise. Fringe one of the long ends, then cut this piece in half.
  2. Coat the tips of the fringe with spray adhesive, covering the front and the back of the paper. Sprinkle the paper with glitter.
  3. Roll your paper tightly and then add glue to the end. Insert the glued end into your straw.
  4. Separate the fringe and give your sparkler shape.

Brit + Co

Normally we would wait until the adhesive was tacky, but we found that for this project it worked better to add the glitter right away. Separate the fringe if it is sticking together. Then roll your paper tightly like it’s a mini yoga mat.

Brit + Co

Add glue to the end and file it into the straw.

Brit + Co

Separate the fringe to make your sparkler come to life!

Brit + Co

Though flameless, they are still super fun :) They look like mini versions of the huge ones that light up the sky!

Brit + Co

Not only are they great for kids, but they are also perfect photo booth props or park accessories!
