Spring TV Preview: 25 Shows to Watch
Even without Game of Thrones (which doesn't return until summer), this is a loaded spring TV season. Some of the small screen's best shows—including Fargo, The Americans, Veep, Better Call Saul, Review, and the newly revived Mystery Science Theater 3000—return, joined by pedigreed newcomers like Iron Fist, American Gods, I Love Dick, Feud, and The Handmaid's Tale.
Below, browse the most notable new and returning shows debuting between now and mid-May, ordered by date. And for more premiere dates and details on every upcoming show (including those not profiled here), visit our 2017 TV Premiere Calendar.
Despite having a title of "Better Call Saul," this acclaimed Breaking Bad prequel has been relatively bereft of any characters named Saul so far. That changes in season 3, which will offer fans their first real glimpse at the transformation of Bob Odenkirk's character from Jimmy McGill into Saul Goodman (though this proto-Saul will still be a bit different than the person he ultimately becomes). As many of you already know, the biggest development this season will be the return of a popular Breaking Bad character—who, we recently learned, will have a fairly sizable role in Saul's third season rather than a mere cameo—but we'll avoid mentioning any names so as not to offend the spoiler-averse.
