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.
In this era of peak TV, it's hard to believe that there's still a network that hasn't launched an original scripted series. Nat Geo was such a network, but that changes next month with the launch of a scripted anthology that will focus on one of history's great minds each season.
Up first: Geoffrey Rush plays Albert Einstein in an eight-episode adaptation of Walter Isaacson's book Einstein: His Life and Universe that also stars Emily Watson and Johnny Flynn. Ron Howard makes his television drama directorial debut with the premiere (and also serves as a producer on the series with Brian Grazer).
