2024 TV Shows: 31 Premiere Dates to Mark on Your Calendar


Would you like to live in a European autocracy run by Kate Winslet? Maybe not after watching this limited series, created and written by Succession and The Menu alum Will Tracy. Succession’s Frank Rich is also an executive producer, and the writing comes from a team that includes the screenwriter of Bodies Bodies Bodies and satirical novelist Gary Shteyngart—all auspicious signs for those who like their comedy pitch black.

Girls5Eva

  • Premiere Date: March 14
  • Network: Netflix
  • Noteworthy Cast: Sara Bareilles, Renée Elise Goldsberry, Paula Pell, Busy Philipps

Thank goodness this absolute gem of a sitcom didn’t die on Peacock after two seasons: Its third will appear on Netflix, where the girls can hopefully develop a Kimmy Schmidt–esque following. Season three finds our ladies on the road, attempting to jump-start their comeback with a cross-country tour. According to Netflix, they’ll also “play a billionaire’s birthday party” (yes) and “cross paths with the biggest pop star on the planet” (double yes).

Manhunt

  • Premiere Date: March 15
  • Network: Apple TV+
  • Noteworthy Cast: Tobias Menzies, Anthony Boyle, Lovie Simone, Matt Walsh

This thriller about the aftermath of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination takes a surprising approach: “I saw it as more of a conspiracy thriller, more of a cat-and-mouse detective story,” producer and showrunner Monica Beletsky tells VF. “I loved the idea of making Stanton the cat to Booth’s mouse.” That would be John Wilkes Booth, played by Boyle, and Edwin Stanton, played by Menzies—the Secretary of War who made it his mission to track the assassin down.

Palm Royale 

  • Premiere Date: March 20
  • Network: Apple TV+
  • Noteworthy Cast: Kristen Wiig, Ricky Martin, Leslie Bibb, Kaia Gerber

If Kristen Wiig as a plucky outsider trying to break into Palm Beach high society doesn’t sound like a good time to you, then what are we even doing here? The show, set in 1969, is a loose adaptation of Juliet McDaniel’s novel Mr. & Mrs. American Pie. Expect pastel paisleys and tongues sharp enough to cut a Florida orange.
