Winter TV Preview: 30 Notable New & Returning Shows
New year, new shows. In the gallery above, find our guide to the most promising new shows debuting in early 2019, plus some notable returning favorites.
Debuts January 28 on TNT. Director Patty Jenkins reunites with one of her Wonder Woman stars, Chris Pine, for a six-episode period crime drama that follows a white teenage girl (India Eisley) who was given away at birth to a black restroom attendant in a Nevada casino in 1949 and now finds herself drawn into an increasingly sinister mystery involving her birth mother, an infamous Hollywood gynecologist, and—possibly—the Black Dahlia murder. Pine plays a reporter investigating the case. It's not as fanciful as it sounds; the story is based on Fauna Hodel's autobiography. Early reviews suggest it's a worthwhile watch, though it may be a notch below "great."
