2018 TV Preview: 25 Shows to Watch This Winter
If you opt to heat up your winter months with television's warm, glowing, warming glow, you certainly won't run out of options. January and February will see the arrival of new shows from Steven Soderbergh, Alan Ball, Ryan Murphy, Ronald D. Moore, Cary Fukunaga, Alex Gibney, and more. Expect a pair of promising sci-fi shows, a new (but different) DC Comics series, the return of favorites like The X-Files, and even a cartoon look at the Trump presidency. Preview each of the season's most promising new and returning shows in the gallery above.
Debuts January 22 on HBO. Though it looks like it could be more notable for its ambition rather than its execution (at least if an early review turns out to be emblematic of the rest), this six-part miniseries from director Steven Soderbergh and writer Ed Solomon (Men in Black) represents the culmination of a groundbreaking experiment in narrative storytelling.
Mosaic was first released as a free iOS app (and Android app) in November. In that form, users can view various plot threads (involving a murder and two different time periods) from multiple and not necessarily linear perspectives, choosing how (and how deeply) to experience the full story. Now it comes to television as a more conventional, week-long series where Soderbergh calls the shots. Sharon Stone heads a cast that also includes Garrett Hedlund, Frederick Weller, Beau Bridges, Paul Reubens, Jennifer Ferrin, Devin Ratray, Michael Cerveris, and James Ransone.
