Summer TV Preview: 23 New & Returning Shows
You may need to schedule some indoor time this summer, or at least clear out some space on your DVR. The coming months will see the returns of critical favorites such as Mr. Robot, You're the Worst, Orange Is the New Black, UnReal, and Difficult People, as well as the debuts of new series from Maria Bamford, Robert Kirkman, Baz Luhrmann, Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, and Cameron Crowe. Other newcomers include what could be HBO's best new drama in years, the most popular show in Italian TV history, and a remake of TV's most-watched miniseries.
We've picked out 23 key summer programs below. For information on other upcoming TV debuts, visit our TV Premiere Calendar.
Can a move to the small screen help break Cameron Crowe out of a lengthy slump? At the very least, the hourlong Roadies (which Crowe is writing, directing, and producing, joined by J.J. Abrams in the latter category) appears to be right in his wheelhouse, as its story centers on the antics of the backstage crew at a series of rock concerts. The roadies will be actors (including Luke Wilson, Carla Gugino, Keisha Castle-Hughes, Rafe Spall, and Imogen Poots), but the bands performing will be real, including The Head and the Heart in the opener.
