21 TV Shows to Watch This Summer
The coming summer, arguably, may not have the sheer volume of high profile shows that we have become accustomed to in recent years. But that certainly doesn't mean there won't be anything to watch. In fact, the highlights—led by the returns of Twin Peaks and Game of Thrones—include some of this year's most-anticipated shows regardless of season.
Below you can find details on the most notable TV debuts this summer (both new and returning shows), ordered by date. For more premiere dates and details on every upcoming show (including those not profiled here), visit our 2017 TV Premiere Calendar.
For its fifth season, the popular Netflix dramedy will try something a bit different: the entire 13-episode season will take place across a violent three-day period, picking up immediately following last season's cliffhanger ending. That means you won't see as much of Michael Harney's Sam Healy this season, though last season's major addition Blair Brown returns as a regular. Series co-star Laura Prepon will make her series directorial debut with the 10th episode.
