Spring TV Preview: The 30 Most-Anticipated Shows
Does TV save its best shows for the end of its season? The answer may be yes, given that the next few months will see the returns of acclaimed programs like The Americans, Game of Thrones, Veep, and Catastrophe. There are also some promising newcomers headed to the small screen in the coming weeks, including several Netflix comedies, the latest from Shonda Rhimes, and a drama produced by Steven Soderbergh.
Below, we highlight 30 intriguing shows scheduled to debut between now and early May, listed in order by premiere date. (For information on other upcoming TV debuts, visit our TV Premiere Calendar.)
Samantha Morton, John Hurt, and Tahar Rahim (A Prophet) head the cast of this six-episode European crime thriller inspired by the exploits of real-life Balkan jewel thieves known as the Pink Panthers. David Bowie was enough of a fan to provide the show's theme song, while Warp artist Clark scores the series.
