After some delays and hiatuses in 2023, this year’s slate of TV releases is looking pretty bright, with new shows that include spinoffs, anime, returning series and video game adaptations. We’ll also see beloved properties hit the small screen in ways we haven’t necessarily seen before.
For example, there’s Netflix’s live-action take on Avatar: The Last Airbender. Most of us saw a previous attempt at adapting Bryan Konietzko and Michael Dante DiMartino’s animated series, and as a fan, I’m cautiously optimistic about this upcoming version — but still can’t wait to watch it. New releases like Fallout, The Penguin, X-Men ’97, The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live and Agatha: Darkhold Diaries seem like prime candidates for watchlists.
Star Wars fans are in for a treat, as the franchise has multiple shows hitting Disney Plus this year, while Netflix is saying goodbye to popular franchises like Cobra Kai, You, The Umbrella Academy, Big Mouth and Sweet Tooth. There’s lots of action with returning series such as House of the Dragon, The Boys, Tales of the Jedi and Squid Game. Comedy is also on deck with Abbott Elementary and Curb Your Enthusiasm.
We’ll also admit there are some shows we’re hoping will air in 2024, but it’s unknown whether their premiere dates have been pushed back — including Starz hits like Power Book II and P-Valley, and Peacock’s Poker Face and Bel-Air. Here’s a sampling of the best to come in 2024, and we’ll keep this list updated throughout the year with release dates and titles.
