The Wheel of Time season 3 (March 13)

The Wheel of Time Season 3 - Official Trailer | Prime Video

It has been almost a year and a half wait for the return of The Wheel of Time, the second season ending in October 2023. The fantasy series is a perfect replacement for shows like Game of Thrones and His Dark Materials. The series follows the adventures of Moiraine Damodred (Rosamund Pike), a member of a group of powerful women who can channel tremendous power. In the first season, she sets out to a small village to find five young people she believes to be the reincarnation of a powerful dragon. They could be the key to saving the world and fighting the evil Dark One.

Based on the book series of the same name, The Wheel of Time’s characters are scattered around the world, seeking out sources of strength and fighting forces of evil.

Stream The Wheel of Time on Amazon Prime Video. 

Dope Thief (March 14)

Dope Thief — Official Trailer | Apple TV+

The premise of Dope Thief sounds a lot like the NBC crime comedy-drama Good Girls starring Christina Hendricks. So, if that show was up your alley, this one might be, too. Except this time, it’s two men at the heart, and they aren’t bored housewives but rather two guys pretending to be DEA agents so they can rob a lavish home. When the duo realizes the house used to run a large narcotics operation, their plans are not only foiled but also put them in serious danger.

Created by Peter Craig (The Batman), Dope Thief stars Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta) and Wagner Moura (Narcos). Keep an eye out for the impressive supporting cast, including Marin Ireland, Kate Mulgrew, and Ving Rhames.

Stream Dope Thief on Apple TV+. 

The Residence (March 20)

The Residence | Official Trailer | Netflix

Combine Shonda Rhimes with a political mystery drama and a talented cast — including Uzo Aduba, Giancarlo Esposito, Susan Kalechi Watson, Jason Lee, Ken Marino, Randall Park, and Molly Griggs — and you probably have a hit on your hands. The Residence is based on the novel The Residence: Inside the Private World of the White House. The story follows a scandalous murder at the White House and the investigation into what happened, who is responsible, why, and the fallout it will cause.

This isn’t your average Knives Out-type whodunnit, however. The murder occurred at a state dinner with 157 intelligent and savvy people in attendance. So, sussing out the situation will be especially challenging, especially when not everyone gets along, fingers start to point, and the lead investigator is as quirky as she is talented. Beyond those mentioned, the cast is as long as a CVS receipt for a tube of chapstick with names like Bronson Pinchot, Al Franken, Kylie Minogue, Jane Curtin, and Eliza Coupe. If you’re getting Scandal vibes, you’re on the right track. The eight-episode series, part of Rhimes’ nine-figure deal with Netflix, sees Scandal’s writer Paul William Davies as showrunner. The Residence is a must-watch if you’re a fan of Rhimes’ work.

Stream The Residence on Netflix. 

The Studio (March 26)

The Studio stars top talent along with Rogen, including Catherine O’Hara, Kathryn Hahn, and Ike Barinholtz. The massive guest cast list includes Bryan Cranston, Zac Efron, Ron Howard, Anthony Mackie, Martin Scorsese, Charlize Theron, Steve Buscemi, Adam Scott, and so many more.

The Handmaid’s Tale season 6 (April 8)
The Handmaid's Tale | Season 6 Teaser | Hulu
It has been more than 2.5 years since The Handmaid’s Tale delivered its fifth season, and the story is finally ending with the sixth and final season this month. The story, based on the Margaret Atwood novel of the same name, takes place in a dystopian future whereby a theocratic regime has taken over, forcing child-bearing women to serve as handmaids for the infertile wives of wealthy commanders. June (Elisabeth Moss) is desperate to escape and get back to her husband and her daughter, and she eventually leads the charge for a revolt.
By season 5, June has escaped to Canada, but she remains traumatized by her experiences and hellbent on revenge. Plus, the folks in Gilead aren’t satisfied with letting her get off that easily. The stakes are raised higher as June ends up with Serena (Yvonne Strahovski) and baby Nichole, both fleeing, while Luke (O-T Fagbenie) lets himself get arrested so she can get to safety. The story in The Handmaid's Tale has long since diverted from Atwood’s writings that inspired the first season, leaving fans guessing as to where it ends. But like Atwood’s heartwrenching story, The Handmaid’s Tale is a deeply troubling tale about societal downfall into oppression and cruelty masked by religion.

Stream The Handmaid’s Tale on Hulu.
Hacks season 4 (April 10)
Hacks Season 4 | Official Trailer | Max
Earning several Primetime Emmy Awards through its three-season run to date, Hacks is back for season 4. The story centers around Deborah Vance (Jean Smart), a stand-up comedian looking to reinvent her act for modern times. She is paired with young comedy writer Ava Daniels (Hannah Einbinder) to help.  Despite coming from completely different generations of comedy, Deborah and Ava become a formidable pairing.
With an almost a perfect Rotten Tomatoes critics score, Hacks is one of those shows worth binge-watching. Both leads deliver fantastic performances with amazing chemistry. The guest cast keeps you consistently entertained with the eclectic mix of personalities, including Julianne Nicholson, Michaela Watkins, and Eric Balfour.
