If you were living under a rock, you might not be up to date on all the best new shows that premiered in 2025. The fact is, 2025 was an incredible year for television. It's insane to think that the same year we got The Pitt, we got Pluribus and Heated Rivalry. If you missed out on the best TV that 2025 had to offer, thankfully, you can stream it all right now, and Watch With Us knows exactly where you should start. From The Chair Company to The Studio, here are five of the best 2025 shows that you have to watch right now. New on HBO Max in January 2026 - The Full List of Movies and TV Shows 'The Pitt' - HBO Max At the emergency room of the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center (AKA "the Pitt"), an average day of work is anything but ordinary. There, the many physicians, nurses, residents and other personnel work tirelessly to deliver round-the-clock care to medical emergencies as minor as beads stuck up a child's nose, or as extreme as a fatal fentanyl overdose. But that's far from the worst case scenario dealt with by Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle), Dr. Langdon (Patrick Bell) and charge nurse Dana Evans (Katherine LaNasa) during season 1 of The Pitt, which chronicles one day that ends in a shocking tragedy. The Pitt was perhaps the breakout show of 2025, and the fact that season 2 has already arrived makes it all the more incredible that it's only been one year since its debut. In that monumental year, The Pitt won multiple Emmys and Golden Globes, and its winning streak may very well continue in season 2, which continues to be an absorbing drama with a terrific ensemble of top-notch actors. 'Pluribus' - Apple TV When an extraterrestrial virus eliminates all emotions from the Earth except happiness and contentment, curmudgeonly cynic Carol Sturka (Rhea Seehorn) is suddenly left isolated from the rest of the world. Save for a few other disparate survivors, Carol is immune to this disease, which has rendered the large majority of the world one happy hive mind. Though the hive mind desires for Carol and the other unaffected citizens to join them, Carol is adamant on resisting the "Joining" while she strives to find a cure for those afflicted. One of the best descriptors for Vince Gilligan's new series is "entrancing," as the sci-fi show is far from a typical fast-paced survival story; instead, it's a patient, slow-moving car crash that you can't look away from. The mundanities of Carol's newly isolated existence and her progressive search for solutions are made captivating in the unique direction and writing of Pluribus. However, it's Seehorn's multifaceted performance as Carol that really brings everything together, earning her a well-deserved Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama Series. She's the primary reason why Pluribus holds an astounding 98 percent critical score on Rotten Tomatoes. 'The Chair Company' - HBO Max After family man and office worker Ron Trosper (Tim Robinson) is promoted to being the project manager of an ambitious new shopping mall, he embarrasses himself in front of his coworkers when he sits down in a chair and instantly breaks it. In a state of desperation, he begins investigating the manufacturing company behind the chair and slowly uncovers a vast conspiracy nestled in the heart of his small Ohio town. Blending thriller and black comedy, The Chair Company is another winning collaboration between Robinson and co-creator Zach Kanin. After the sitcom humor of Detroiters, sketch stylings of I Think You Should Leave and the feature-length Friendship, Robinson spins his particular brand of surrealist cringe comedy into yet another new format. It might just seem like another Robinson comedy, but The Chair Company is a genuinely engaging mystery, and while it is funny, you'll be surprised at the way each episode hooks you. Though certainly not for everyone, the offbeat tone and unique performances (some from non-actors, like stand-out Jared Lindner) are certainly memorable. 'Too Much' - Netflix Still reeling from the traumatic breakup with her ex-boyfriend Zev (Michael Zegen) - and his subsequent moving on with an Instagram model named Wendy (Emily Ratajkowski) - commercial producer Jessica Salmon (Meg Stalter) decides to uproot her life by accepting a work transfer to London. There, she instantly meets and ends up sleeping with a complicated musician named Felix (Will Sharpe). Ultimately, a romance blossoms between them, but they will have to contend with their relationship hangups and personal demons if they have any hope of making it work. Too Much marked a welcome return to television for co-creator and director Lena Dunham, and the show carries much of the stellar character and narrative writing Dunham became famous for with Girls. Alternating gracefully between humor, melancholy and chaos, Dunham paints the character of Jess as refreshingly realistic in all her messy imperfections, while Stalter's performance cements her as more than just a comic actress. Too Much is an affecting love letter t
