Peak TV is here to stay, with networks and streaming services already lining up exciting
new series for years to come.
Looking ahead to next year, we're already excited for a slew of shows with huge stars
on both sides of the camera—and intriguing and interesting premises ready to bring new
perspectives to the small screen.
Get ready to make plenty of room in your queue, because these are just some of the many TV
shows you can look forward to watching in 2018.
Black Lightning
The CW is taking on a more mature superhero with Black Lightning, a former masked vigilante
who spent years keeping the streets safe.
Starring Cress Williams as Jefferson Pierce, the show will follow his close calls fighting
local gang the One Hundred and how his wife convinced him to quit for the sake of his
daughters.
After years of safely operating as a high school principal, though, Jefferson is eventually
called back into crime fighting as the One Hundred takes over the town again.
He'll eventually enlist the aid of his daughters Jennifer and Anissa, who'll take on the identities
Thunder and Lightning.
Black Lightning reportedly won't initially be set in the Arrow-verse with the rest of
the CW's superhero shows, which offers up a lot of creative freedom for the series to
establish its own tone and pace once this show lands on-screen January 16th.
The Alienist
TNT is going period for their next prestige drama, The Alienist.
This psychological thriller stars Daniel Bruhl as Dr. Laszlo Kreizler, an expert searching
for the person responsible for the demise of several boys in New York City.
The cast also includes Luke Evans as his partner, and Dakota Fanning as a woman with hidden
information related to their search.
Kreizler will stop at nothing.
"Even if it leads me to the darkest pit of hell."
Think of it as Mindhunter with a late 19th Century twist.
The Alienist lands on the small screen January 22nd.
A.P. Bio
Following his turn in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Glenn Howerton's newest series
puts him in the lead.
Titled A.P. Bio, the sitcom comes from Saturday Night Live alums Seth Meyers and Lorne Michaels.
Howerton will play a philosophy scholar who loses out on his dream job and goes to work
as a high school biology teacher.
Realizing he has a room full of honor roll students at his disposal, he decides to eschew
teaching biology and instead use the kids to his own benefit.
The show is set to debut midseason on NBC.
"It is a very f---ed up reflection of how things are."
The Ballad of Buster Scruggs
The Coen brothers are scheduled to jump on the Netflix bandwagon in 2018 with The Ballad
of Buster Scruggs, which follows six stories about the American frontier, with each chapter
of the anthology focusing on a different plot.
Tim Blake Nelson will portray the titular singing cowboy in the first episode, with
other A-listers coming in to round out the rest of the season's stars, including Stephen
Root, Ralph Ineson, James Franco, and Zoe Kazan.
Westerns have a complicated history on the small screen, but if anyone can do it, it's
the guys who brought us True Grit and No Country for Old Men.
Castle Rock
Stephen King stories are always prime fodder for adaptations, and Hulu is looking to jump
back in the game with the 10-episode psychological thriller, Castle Rock.
The anthology show, which will follow different sets of characters from King's novels, will
revolve around the fictional Maine town featured in King-based movies like Stand By Me, Cujo,
and Needful Things.
Andre Holland is set to star as Henry, a death row attorney with a unique and complicated
history.
And the cast is full of people who should be familiar to fans of adaptations of King's
work, including Carrie's Sissy Spacek and It's Bill Skarsgård.
The show is rounded out by an ensemble that includes Melanie Lynskey, Jane Levy, and Scott
Glenn.
With King's properties at peak popularity right now, this small screen homage to his
literary world is bound to be a hit.
Cloak and Dagger
Multiple Marvel series are set to hit your screens in 2018, but Freeform's Cloak and
Dagger looks like one of the most exciting.
The show stars Olivia Holt as Tandy Bowen, a.k.a. Dagger, a teen raised with the ability
to emit light daggers who is forced to adapt after a storm uproots her life.
Meanwhile, Aubrey Joseph appears as Tyrone Johnson, a.k.a. Cloak, a teen who can engulf
people in darkness.
The trailer teases the series' bigger connections to the MCU, ending with Tyrone standing on
top of the Roxxon Corporation building—an evil entity featured in other Marvel properties.
With potentially bigger implications along with their grounded story, we're excited to
see this superhero pair in action.
Cobra Kai
The Karate Kid has already gotten a big-screen modern remake, but Cobra Kai promises to be
something else entirely.
This new show, set to premiere on YouTube Red, will reunite original franchise stars
Ralph Macchio and William Zabka to show what happened to the pair after the events of the
initial 1980s trilogy.
Taking place more than 30 years after the fateful events of the 1984 All Valley Karate
Tournament, the new series will see Johnny looking for redemption by reopening the titular
dojo—and reigniting his rivalry with Daniel.
While Daniel is now successful in life, he's struggling to find balance without the help
of his mentor Mr. Miyagi, who was played in the original film by the late Pat Morita.
The pair will address their past and present frustrations through, of course, karate.
Get ready to pencil a YouTube Red subscription into your budget, because this is a series
you won't want to miss.
Untitled animated Deadpool series
The Merc with a Mouth is taking over the silver screen again when Deadpool 2 hits theaters
in 2018, but the character will also get some small screen action courtesy of an animated
FXX series from Donald Glover.
Glover, who made his MCU debut over the summer in Spider-Man: Homecoming, is set to write,
executive produce, and serve as co-showrunner on the series alongside his brother Stephen.
The adult-oriented action-comedy isn't expected to hew too closely to what we've already seen
in theaters, though.
FX head John Landgraf said the tone of the series will be "really different" from the
movies, and the goal is to make something distinct from Ryan Reynolds' take on the character.
"And remember: hugs not drugs."
Jack Ryan
Although the Jack Ryan movies have been hit or miss in theaters, this eight-episode Amazon
series might breathe new life into the Tom Clancy character.
The show will feature John Krasinski in the title role -- which was previously held in
the films by Alec Baldwin, Harrison Ford, Ben Affleck, and Chris Pine.
And the show will follow the up-and-coming CIA analyst as he unravels a pattern of terrorist
communication that could threaten the whole world.
The rest of the cast includes Wendell Pierce as Jack's boss James Greer, Abbie Cornish
as Cathy Mueller, and others, so count on this to be an action-adventure for the ages.
"Holy s---."
Krypton
There are already quite a few superhero shows on TV right now, but Syfy's Krypton looks
like a different take on the crowded genre.
Set on the titular planet 200 years before the birth of Superman, it shows how the House
of El was shamed and ostracized.
The series will follow Superman's grandfather Seyg-El on his quest to bring hope and equality
to Krypton, turning a planet in disarray into one worthy of giving birth to the greatest
superhero ever known.
Fans can expect to see a lot of familiar elements from the comics, including the villain Brainiac
and Seyg-El's unlikely human mentor Adam Strange.
Origin stories are always iffy, but with Superman's ancestors at the fore here, this should be
an otherworldly adventure worth watching.
Mosaic
HBO is going experimental for their upcoming Steven Soderbergh series Mosaic, which follows
the aftermath of a homicide.
Olivia Lake, a famed children's author, goes missing after romance blossoms with a mysterious
stranger.
But this won't be your typical mystery series—through a mobile app, viewers will be able to create
their own adventure as they delve into the twisty plot.
Viewers will get to choose their point of view and which story to follow, with each
choice building on the others, enabling the tale to be told in a multitude of different
ways and ending in different conclusions.
The app will give viewers a few months to play with it before Soderbergh unveils his
official take on the story in a six-episode series in January of 2018.
If Soderbergh's name and HBO's innovative method of presenting the content aren't enough
to get you on board, it also has some big stars attached, including Sharon Stone, Garrett
Hedlund, Beau Bridges, and Paul Reubens.
Experiments are popular in the age of peak TV, and this seems like one that could succeed
in a big way.
New Warriors
The New Warriors may not currently have a TV home, but they're expected to hit the small
screen at some point in 2018.
Marvel's first comedy series was initially set to debut on Freeform, but it was eventually
pulled from the network, which wouldn't have been able to fit it on its schedule.
Although the fact that Freeform dropped the series is definitely worrisome, New Warriors
is still setting up to be a lot of fun.
The series is set to bring the very popular Squirrel Girl to live action, with Milana
Vayntrub taking on the role.
Other stars include Derek Theler as Mister Immortal, Jeremy Tardy as Night Thrasher,
Calum Worthy as Speedball, Matthew Moy as Microbe, and Kate Comer as Debrii.
The series follows the six aforementioned young people as they deal with their powers
while trying to make a difference in the world—even if the world isn't ready.
And since they live and work together, the series is sure to provide quite a lot of tension
and comedy.
Untitled Purge series
The Purge franchise has done very well on the big screen, and now it's coming to TV.
Blumhouse Television is set to bring a Purge "interwoven anthology" show to USA and Syfy
next year.
Franchise and show creator James DeMonaco has said that he wants the TV series to spend
more time delving further into the characters' motivations, emphasizing a side of the Purge
that the movies have not had a chance to explore.
DeMonaco believes this will make Purge Night seem even more intense, as people are more
familiar with the characters and understand their full arcs.
Although we don't know who'll star in the show yet, this seems like an interesting take
on a popular horror series.
Rise
Friday Night Lights meets Glee in 2018 courtesy of NBC's Rise.
Based on the 2013 book Drama High, Rise follows Josh Radnor as Lou, a high school English
teacher who works in the theater department in a Rust Belt town in Pennsylvania.
He decides to reinvigorate the school's drama students through their performance of the
hit musical Spring Awakening.
The cast also includes Auli'i Cravalho, who will play a student named Lilette, and Shannon
Purser, who has a recurring role as a student named Annabelle.
Rosie Perez plays the high-energy drama teacher Tracey, while Rarmian Newton will play a mysterious,
independent student who works as the school's lighting technician.
This Is Us may currently have the monopoly on NBC's tearjerker slot, but we're on board
with another good cry every week.
"Let's dream.
Big."
The Romanoffs
Mad Men creator Matthew Weiner is taking on Russian royalty with his Amazon anthology
series The Romanoffs, which follows people who believe they're descended from the famous
Romanov family.
The last imperial dynasty to rule Russia, the Romanovs were eliminated by revolutionaries,
but some speculate that one daughter, Anastasia, survived the attack.
As many as four of the episodes will be set in the United States, while four will be set
and filmed abroad.
The show has an all-star cast on board, including Diane Lane, Aaron Eckhart, Isabelle Huppert,
Christina Hendricks, John Slattery, Jack Huston, Amanda Peet, Corey Stoll, and Paul Reiser.
Given the impressive work Weiner delivered on Mad Men and the anthology approach he's
taking with this series, The Romanoffs sounds like an intriguing new take on an old mystery.
