What Time Will 'Queen of the South' Season 5 Be on Netflix?
After a thrilling Season 5, the Queen of the South finale lands on USA tonight. While that may seem like means to celebrate, enjoy this episode — it’ll be the last of Queen of the South. The crime drama is set to end after Season 5, concluding with tonight’s episode. It took nearly two years for this new season to release on the network, and Netflix users are still waiting for the new season to drop on the platform. Wondering what to watch in the meantime, or what you can stream after you finish the entire Queen of the South saga? We can help.
Queen of the South, which is based on the novel La Reina del Sur by Arturo Pérez, stars Alice Braga as Teresa Mendoza, a poor woman from Mexico who works her way to the top of a drug empire thanks to her boyfriend. She grows wealthy thanks to her massive drug empire, with drama and terrifying drug lords promising to get in the way of her stronghold on the cartels. She’ll need to overcome the blood, sweat, and tears that haunt her from her young life if she wants to keep hold of her power.
Not ready for Queen of the South to end? Fear not — here are seven shows just like the crime drama:
'La Reina Del Sur'
La Reina Del Sur follows Teresa Mendoza, a naive woman and girlfriend of a powerful man involved in drug trafficking. When she gets too involved in his life, she soon becomes the leader of a drug cartel. She comes from humble beginnings, so if she wants to become the legend she has the potential to be, she’ll have to trek onwards and forget her past. But coming from years of blood, sweat, and tears, she’ll have a lot to overcome. (And yes, Queen of the South and La Reina Del Sur are based on the same novel!)
'Designated Survivor'
Designated Survivor follows an extreme “What if?” scenario. What if the president and nearly his entire Cabinet perished in one fell swoop? When the impossible happens, a lowly Cabinet member is forced into the oval office, assuming all presidential duties overnight. Not only does he have to learn the ropes of being president, but this new leader of the free world has to stabilize the country before it dissolves into chaos after the attack.
'How to Get Away With Murder'
How to Get Away with Murder follows defense attorney and professor Annalise Keating, who teaches a class with the same name as the title of the series. She enlists a group of her stronger students to assist her at her law firm, teaching them the ropes and employing them as her aides. But when they start to delve into her past, the students realize that she’s hiding some dark secrets. Along with assisting her at the firm, they start to discover everything Annalise has done behind the curtain.
'Better Call Saul'
Better Call Saul is a spinoff of the hit series Breaking Bad, following Walter White’s killer attorney Saul Goodman.
