Buffalo Appears in Netflix's Newest Hit Series
- Netflix released the limited series 'Sirens' on May 22, 2025, following two sisters and a wealthy boss over a weekend on a private island near Buffalo.
- The story arises from Molly Smith Metzler's adaptation of her play and explores themes of power, class, and complicated relationships, continuing her collaboration with Netflix after 'Maid'.
- 'Sirens' centers on Devon's intervention to protect her sister Simone, who is drawn to Michaela, an enigmatic billionaire, with the drama unfolding mainly at the Kells' island estate.
- The series has eight episodes, stars Meghann Fahy, Milly Alcock, and Julianne Moore, and Netflix calls it "an incisive exploration of women, power, and class" with moments that "will make people uncomfortable."
- 'Sirens' suggests ongoing interest in dark, character-driven stories about trauma and ambition and may attract viewers familiar with Metzler's award-winning writing and prior hit, 'Maid'.
