10The White Lotus (2021-Present)
Meghann Fahy Appears In The White Lotus Season 2
One of the best shows to watch for fans of Sirens is HBO’s The White Lotus. The anthology series follows a group of wealthy people who go on vacation at a White Lotus resort, expecting relaxation and enjoyment, only for everything to go horribly wrong. Since the seasons follow a different group of characters and actors, the most appealing of the three seasons will be season 2, since Meghann Fahy also acts in that ensemble.
However, all the seasons explore the same themes of wealth and power found in Netflix’s Sirens. The settings in both shows are also strikingly beautiful, creating a dichotomy between the fantastical escapism and the terrifying manipulation.
9Palm Royale (2024-Present)
An Outsider Strives For Her Place Among The Wealthy Socialistes
Both shows ask the question of how far a person would bend their morals for fame and wealth. With equally sharp and witty dialogue, Palm Royale is the perfect choice to watch after Sirens.
8The Perfect Couple (2024)
A Family Tries To Cover Up Their Secrets When A Wedding Guest Dies
Another perfect show to watch after Sirens is the Netflix miniseries The Perfect Couple, which was released almost a year earlier. Like Sirens, the crime drama centers around an average person finding themselves surrounded by the world of the ultra-wealthy and elite. Amelia Sacks (Eve Hewson) is marrying into the Winbury family, but things go horribly wrong when a wedding guest shows up dead.
7Revenge (2011)
A Loose Modern-Day Retelling Of The Count Of Monte Cristo
Although they were released 14 years apart, Sirens feels like a spiritual successor to the soapy TV show Revenge. The stories have shocking similarities. Revenge centers on a woman named Emily Thorne (Emily VanCamp), who moves to the Hamptons and integrates herself into the lives of the wealthy elite with the goal of taking them down.
While the 2025 limited series only has five episodes, the 2011 show spans four seasons, allowing for a much deeper exploration of the themes of wealth causing hypocrisy and secrets. On top of that, Revenge has an equally messy main character who fans can still root for even in her worst moments.
6The Path (2016-2018)
A Family Questions Their Faith In Their Cult
Both shows include an empathetic depiction of cult victims and examine the feeling of disillusionment that comes when someone breaks free from the groupthink. However, The Path has more tension between the characters as they each disentangle from Meyerism.
5Little Fires Everywhere (2022)
The Show Explores Wealth, Family, & Race
Though other shows have more narrative similarities to Sirens, Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere is an excellent follow-up to the themes discussed in the Netflix show. Little Fires Everywhere follows the unnerving events that transpire after Elena Richardson (Reese Witherspoon), a wealthy woman with a savior complex, rents an apartment to Mia Warren (Kerry Washington) and her daughter.
While Sirens takes a dark comedy tone, Little Fires Everywhere goes full-on psychological thriller. However, they both examine class differentials, though Hulu intersects class with race and single parenthood. Luckily, Little Fires Everywhere and Sirens are both limited series, so they’re quick and easy to binge-watch.
4Dead to Me (2019-2022)
A Dark Comedy About Grief & Lies
After watching Sirens, viewers should put on the Netflix show Dead to Me. The series is the epitome of gallows humor, finding comedy in literal death. The show centers on a recently widowed, jaded woman named Jen Harding (Christina Applegate), whose husband died in a hit-and-run accident. She befriends Judy Hale (Linda Cardellini), a member of her grief support group who somehow keeps her cheerful optimism.
In a way, Jen and Judy develop a sisterly friendship that resembles that of Devon and Simone. The characters are packed with moral ambiguity, and many of them harbor secrets that could wreck their relationships. Dead to Me is especially poignant because it explores the many sides of grief and pain, something that’s lightly touched upon in Sirens but given less attention.
3The Clearing (2023)
A Thrilling Cult Story Based Loosely On A True Story
Fans who enjoyed the culty aspect of Sirens but want more of a thriller tone need to turn on Disney+’s The Clearing. The show follows a woman named Amy Beaufort/Freya Heywood (Julia Savage) who must face her past life in order to stop more children from getting taken into the new-age cult run by a woman leader.
The group in The Clearing is fictional but inspired by the Australian doomsday cult called The Family (via TV Guide).
Like Sirens, The Clearing focuses on the trauma of being involved with this kind of organization, but the latter cult has a much more insidious plot. They’re a doomsday cult rather than a cult of personality, and they target children instead of adults. This makes The Clearing a much scarier watch than Sirens.
2The Idol (2023)
An Underrated Show About Exploitation In The Music Industry
Unexpected cults are a recurring theme when it comes to shows like Netflix’s Sirens, and the deeply underrated TV show The Idol is no exception. The show follows a pop idol named Jocelyn, who has a nervous breakdown while on tour only to start a relationship with Tedros, a self-help guru who leads a new-age sex cult. The Idol faced a lot of criticism for being “half-baked” and lewd However, the show has a lot to say about exploitation in the music industry and feels especially poignant after a certain scandal that will remain nameless.
1Nine Perfect Strangers (2021-2025)
A Miniseries-Turned-TV Show About The Wellness Industyr
Like Netflix’s Sirens, the mystery-thriller Nine Perfect Strangers explores the commodification and disingenuousness of the wellness industry. They also show how culty it can get. The show follows nine characters who come together for a ten-day wellness retreat, only to realize that they’re in for a wild stay that will out their secrets and shatter their faith.
Nine Perfect Strangers’ version of Michaela Kell is the wealthy host, Masha Dmitrichenko (Nicole Kidman). The story was originally intended to be a miniseries; however, at the time of Siren’s release, Hulu is putting out a second season of the show. The new episodes bring back Kidman but otherwise introduce a whole new group of characters in Nine Perfect Strangers.
