Fall TV Preview: 30 Notable Shows
If you think that fall is the time for broadcast networks to introduce the bulk of their new programming while cable and streaming services hold their best shows back for midseason, it may be time to reconsider your assumptions. Critics are already buzzing about September's surprisingly strong new comedy slate, while the coming months will also bring high-profile newcomers like HBO's Westworld and Netflix's Luke Cage as well as the return of the much-loved Gilmore Girls, among other highlights.
We've picked out the most notable fall TV debuts (both new and returning shows) below, ordered by date. For more premiere dates and details on every upcoming show (including those not profiled here), visit our Fall TV Premiere Calendar.
The third of five planned Marvel series to debut on Netflix stars Mike Colter as the title character, a crime-fighting ex-con with superpowers. (You've already seen him on Jessica Jones.) Mahershala Ali, Alfre Woodard, Simone Missick, Theo Rossi, Frank Whaley, and Sonia Braga also star. Writer Cheo Hodari Coker, who previously worked on shows such as Ray Donovan and Southland, serves as showrunner. The score comes from A Tribe Called Quest's Ali Shaheed Muhammad and producer Adrian Younge, while you can expect to see real-life musicians like Raphael Saadiq, Charles Bradley, Faith Evans, and Jidenna appear as performers at the show's Paradise nightclub.
