Where to Watch The Summer I Turned Pretty — The Complete Guide

Where to watch The Summer I Turned Pretty has one simple answer: Amazon Prime Video. It is a Prime Video original, so all three seasons stream there and are included with a Prime membership or a standalone Prime Video subscription, with no extra rental fee. It is not on Netflix, Hulu or Disney+. Our IPTV service is separate and is not a route to Prime Video originals. Below are the season guide, device steps and shows to watch next.

What Is The Summer I Turned Pretty About?

Based on Jenny Han's young-adult trilogy, the show follows Belly Conklin (Lola Tung), who spends every summer at Cousins Beach with her mother and her mother's best friend Susannah's family, including brothers Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). As Belly grows up, old friendships turn into romance, and a love triangle between the brothers runs through all three seasons. Jenny Han created the series and co-runs it, which is one reason fans of the books feel it stays close to them.

Season Guide

• Season 1: Sets up Cousins Beach, the debutante season and the first sparks of the triangle.
• Season 2: Darker, built around grief over Susannah and a fight to save the beach house.
• Season 3: The longest season, following the characters into college and beyond, and settling the triangle.

Watch the seasons in order. The show jumps around in time, especially in Season 2, and the flashbacks only make sense if you remember earlier summers.

Books or Show First?

Either order works, but they reward different things. The books are told entirely from Belly's point of view, while the show gives more time to her mother Laurel, to Susannah, and to supporting characters such as her brother Steven and her best friend Taylor, whose storylines are expanded. The show also changes the timing of some events. If you enjoy comparing adaptations, read each book after watching its matching season.

Planning a Rewatch

• Total running time: 26 episodes across three seasons, most around an hour, so a full rewatch takes about a week of evenings.
• Watch with subtitles if you want to catch the song lyrics that set up many scenes. Prime Video shows song titles in its X-Ray feature on many devices.
• Use X-Ray for cast names when a minor character returns and you cannot place them.
• Pick one profile on your Amazon account so the "continue watching" row tracks your progress.

How to Watch on Each Device

• Fire TV Stick: Prime Video is built in. Sign in with your Amazon account and search for the show.
• Samsung, LG and Android TV: Install Prime Video from the TV's app store if it is not already there.
• Apple TV, iPhone and iPad: Download Prime Video from the App Store. Our notes on watching on iPhone and iPad also cover screen mirroring to a TV.
• Computer: Watch at primevideo.com in a supported web browser.
• Downloads: The mobile app lets you download episodes for flights and car journeys, within Amazon's limits.

A quick check of which devices run which apps helps if you are setting up a new TV or stick and want both Prime Video and IPTV on it.

Where Our IPTV Service Fits

We want to be clear: our service is not a way to watch Prime Video originals, and we do not list this show as part of our offer. What it does provide is 55,000+ live channels, an EPG with catch-up, 180,000+ other movies and series on demand, and 4K streams on supported devices. Many viewers keep Prime Video for its originals and use IPTV for live TV and sport.

If that combination appeals, you can test it with a free 24-hour test, requested on WhatsApp with no credit card. Login details arrive within minutes.

What to Check During an IPTV Trial

• Install the player on the same TV or stick you use for Prime Video, so switching between them is quick.
• Try the live channels you watch most at a busy evening hour, when the network is under the most load.
• Open the TV guide and check that programme times match your time zone.
• Browse the movies and series sections for the titles you care about, and play one for twenty minutes.
• Message support with a question to see how quickly they answer.

If you decide to continue, see what each plan length costs. Your first plan has a 7-day money-back guarantee if a service problem you report cannot be fixed.

Watching Outside the USA

Prime Video is available in most countries, and as an Amazon original the series is generally part of Prime Video wherever the service runs, so the same three seasons should appear in your local app. Dubbed audio and subtitle languages vary by country. If the show does not appear in a search, check that you are signed in to the right regional Amazon account, since accounts created in one country can show a different catalogue.

Similar Shows to Watch After The Summer I Turned Pretty

Why the Show Became So Popular

The series hit a gap in the market: a romance with real emotional stakes, a soundtrack packed with Taylor Swift and other pop songs, and characters who grow over several years rather than one summer. Season 2's handling of grief won over many viewers who expected a lighter show. The Team Conrad versus Team Jeremiah debate also kept it trending between episodes, which is why weekly releases in Season 3 drew so much attention.
