It’s a new year, people, which means it’s high time to get excited about plenty of premiering (and returning) TV shows. The next 12 months promise some real bangers, from star-studded murder mysteries to buzzy book adaptations, from genre-bending comedies to the next chapters of House Of The Dragon and Abbott Elementary. If you’re looking for a snapshot of your TV year to be, The A.V. Club has you covered. We’ve compiled the shows we’re most excited to dig into, including the Jodie Foster-led fourth round of True Detective, the Angela Bassett-starring Zero Day, Alfonso Cuarón’s Disclaimer, or The Penguin with Colin Farrell. Happy viewing.
