Acorn TV's June schedule is an interesting mix of promising new shows and excellent slightly older shows. Perhaps the biggest highlight of the month is the brand-new Acorn TV Original, Cannes Confidential – but that's far from the only thing on the schedule. Keep reading for the full list + descriptions.

If you don't already have Acorn TV, you can sign up HERE. If your smart TV isn't compatible with the Acorn TV app, or if you just prefer the convenience of Amazon's Prime Video platform and combined billing (for those who use multiple streaming services via Amazon), you can sign up HERE instead.

Regardless of how you subscribe, it's easy to cancel ONLINE when and if you want to. Both options have the same programming, but some people find one or the other gives them a better streaming experience.

Happy Valley, Season 3 (FINAL SEASON)

Sarah Lancashire stars as Catherine Cawood, a West Yorkshire police sergeant who's faced more than her fair share of tragedy and hardship. Her community of Calder Valley is also known as Happy Valley for its drug problems – and her only daughter committed suicide after giving birth to a son.

In this epic final season, Catherine discovers the body of a gangland murder victim, setting off a chain of events that brings her right back to her old nemesis, rapist and murderer Tommy Lee Royce (James Norton, Grantchester). At the same time, her grandson is now 16 and beginning to form his own opinions about the relationship he'll have with Tommy (his biological father). As Catherine stares down the prospect of retirement, can she solve the case and get a bit of peace on the personal front?

New episodes continue on June 5th, June 12th, June 19th, and June 26th (series and season finale).
