The month kicked off with Super Karaoke, a two-part music event (airing June 8 and 10) hosted by Michelle Hunziker in prime time. A reboot of one of the most iconic formats of the 1990s, the show updates the spirit of the original Karaoke with a competitive twist: four teams, each led by a captain (Lucilla Agosti, Daniele Battaglia, Fabio De Vivo, and Rosaria Rollo) compete by performing the most beloved songs in Italian pop culture, with the option to play "Wild Cards" during the contest. Recorded in Piazza Trento e Trieste in Ferrara, the production blends a classic open-air stage with a live crowd and guest appearances from Italian music artists who duet with contestants. Produced by Banijay Italia, the premiere drew 2,181,000 viewers and a 19.1% share.

Che Ci Faccio Qui returned for an eighth season with journalist and filmmaker Domenico Iannacone, widely regarded as one of the finest voices in contemporary Italian television. His signature empathetic, unhurried style takes viewers inside rarely seen worlds, giving voice to people living on the margins or at existential turning points. True to form, the season consists of just four episodes — a deliberate editorial choice that reflects the show's philosophy: slow television that embraces silence. The first episode, Quel che resta dei giorni, explored the world of hospices and palliative care; the second, Tutta la vita che ho, told the story of a child with Cockayne syndrome. The premiere drew 679,000 viewers (4.0% share).

Temptation Island closed the month with a statement. Now in its fifteenth season, the flagship Mediaset docu-reality produced by Fascino PPGT under the creative supervision of Maria De Filippi delivered the biggest number of the month: 3,569,000 viewers and a 27.6% share. Hosted once again by Filippo Bisciglia and filmed at the Calalandrusa Beach & Nature Resort in Guardavalle Marina, Calabria, the show follows seven unmarried, childless couples who live apart in two separate villages alongside 26 singles (13 women and 13 men) to test the strength of their relationships. The emotional core of the format remains the falò di confronto, the bonfire confrontation where partners face defining choices about their future together. Among this season's couples: Gabriele and Sara (six years of on-and-off), Francesca and Danilo (in serious crisis), Diamante and Bernadette (together for 16 years and facing a marriage ultimatum), and Andrea and Iris (shaken by the discovery of compromising messages).
