Winter TV Preview: The 25 Most-Anticipated Shows
If you suspect that TV networks seem to hold their best shows back until midseason these days, well, you're not wrong. This winter, for example, will bring returning (and critically acclaimed) favorites like The X Files and Better Call Saul, while also introducing brand new series from the likes of Louis C.K. and Zach Galifianakis, Martin Scorsese and Terence Winter, and Ryan Murphy, among others.
Below, we highlight 25 intriguing shows scheduled to debut in the months of January and February, listed in order by premiere date. (For information on other upcoming TV debuts in 2016, be sure to visit our TV Premiere Calendar.)
USA Network's recent move into more ambitious programming (which has already produced the hit Mr. Robot) continues with this sci-fi thriller that reunites Lost writer-producer Carlton Cuse with star Josh Holloway. Set in a near-future Los Angeles that has been occupied and colonized by an advanced alien race—with human loyalties divided between cooperation and rebellion—Colony also stars Sarah Wayne Callies, Ally Walker, and Thora Birch. The network has been welcoming comparisons to Callies' previous show, The Walking Dead.
