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.)
One of two Mitch Hurwitz-produced comedies headed to Netflix in the coming months, Flaked reunites him with his Arrested Development star Will Arnett. A co-creator/writer of the eight-episode series (with Todd Margaret's Mark Chappell), Arnett stars as a longtime Venice, California resident struggling with sobriety, relationships, and truth-telling. David Sullivan, Robert Wisdom, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Heather Graham, and Kirstie Alley also star, while Pavement's Stephen Malkmus provides the music.
