📺 Take a peek at some of the latest trailers for upcoming TV shows.
📺 “Paradise: Season 2” Trailer: Sterling K. Brown Steps Outside the Bunker as the Truth Behind the Apocalypse Comes Crashing Down in the New Season with Shailene Woodley, Thomas Doherty & Julianne Nicholson — Premiering Monday, February 23rd on Hulu/Disney+
When the Hulu original series Paradise detonated its big twist last season, it didn’t just pull the rug out from under viewers... it yanked the entire foundation away. What began as a buttoned-up political thriller about a murdered U.S. president suddenly revealed itself as something far stranger, darker, and more ambitious: a post-apocalyptic sci-fi shocker with clues hiding in plain sight. And for a show that came from the team behind This Is Us, the collective “oh shit” reaction was half the fun.
Season 2 wastes no time leaning into that revelation. Picking up immediately after the explosive finale, the new chapter follows Special Agent Xavier Collins (again played by Emmy-winner Sterling K. Brown, who earned an Emmy nomination for this role) as he ventures beyond the safety of the Paradise underground bunker for the first time. His mission is personal: track down his presumed-dead wife, Teri, after learning she may have survived “The Day.” Out there, beyond the walls, Xavier begins to see how the rest of the world endured the three years since everything fell apart.
Meanwhile, back inside Paradise, the illusion of order starts to crack. Xavier’s failed insurrection has shaken public trust, and the city’s carefully curated social structure begins to fray. Long-buried secrets about Paradise’s origins start bubbling up, especially those tied to the program’s enigmatic founder, Samantha “Sinatra” Redmond. Julianne Nicholson returns to the role, and if Season 1 positioned her as quietly omnipotent, Season 2 looks ready to test just how fragile that power really is.
Much of the core cast is back, including Sarah Shahi, Nicole Brydon Bloom, Krys Marshall, Aliyah Mastin, and Charlie Evans. And yes, James Marsden will still be along for the ride as President Cal Bradford via flashbacks and time jumps. Because Paradise never met a fractured timeline it didn’t like.
Jon Beavers also returns as Xavier’s loyal partner, Agent Billy Pace, poised to dig deeper into his murky past with the Paradise program, presumably through flashbacks, considering the character met his shocking end last season.
New additions this season include Shailene Woodley and Thomas Doherty as two resilient outsiders who survived the doomsday event without the help of living inside the bunker. Once dismissed as a myth or urban legend, their suspicions are confirmed when Xavier verifies Paradise’s existence, sending them down a dangerous path as they try to uncover what Paradise really is, and whether it can be taken over from the outside. But something tells us Sinatra has other plans to seize full control once more.
Series creator Dan Fogelman has described the show as a planned three-season arc, with Season 2 acting as the “middle movie” of the trilogy. So expect a wider scope this new season, but also a few unanswered questions — because it wouldn’t be Paradise without a lingering mystery yet to be unraveled.
Paradise: Season 2 premieres with its first three episodes Monday, February 23rd on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+, with new episodes dropping weekly.
📺 “DTF St. Louis” Trailer: Jason Bateman and David Harbour Get Tangled in a Deadly Midlife Love Triangle in Steven Conrad’s Darkly Comic HBO Limited Series with Linda Cardellini — Premiering Sun, March 1st on HBO
The town that seems the most ordinary is usually the one hiding the strangest and kinkiest crimes. St. Louis, for example, is a city that sells itself on tradition, familiarity, and Midwestern charm. It’s also a place where midlife malaise can quietly transform into something darker, where boredom and unspoken desire start hunting for an outlet to explore their most destructive impulses. And sometimes, all it takes is a click and a swipe to indulge those forbidden temptations.
Ozark’s Jason Bateman and Stranger Things’ David Harbour find themselves in such circumstances in this new HBO limited series DTF St. Louis, where hidden kinks don’t just complicate things... they can lead to someone being murdered, or worse, committing murder.
Created by Steven Conrad, the writer behind the cult Amazon spy series Patriot and the screenwriter of darkly comic middle-age-crisis dramedies The Weather Man and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, the series features Bateman as Clark Forrest, a familiar local face as a St. Louis weatherman. His close friendship with co-worker Floyd, a sign language interpreter (Harbour), suddenly becomes something to investigate when Floyd turns up dead under mysterious circumstances.
When the case lands in the hands of special crimes officer Jodie Plumb (Joy Sunday), alongside weary but sharp-eyed Detective Donoghue Homer (Richard Jenkins), an eye-raising mystery slowly begins to take shape. As they peel back layers of Midwestern desire and deception, the two detectives discover that Clark himself had introduced Floyd to a local St. Louis dating app designed specifically for married people seeking discreet hookups. With further probing, it becomes clear that Clark and Floyd’s wife, Carol (played by Linda Cardellini), may have started their own secret affair on the side. Suddenly, the question isn’t just whether Floyd’s death was murder, but whether it was the inevitable fallout of a love triangle gone disastrously wrong.
Co-starring Peter Sarsgaard, the HBO limited series leans into Conrad’s signature tone: darkly funny, awkwardly revealing of midlife crises, and deeply interested in the lies people tell themselves to get through the day.
DTF St. Louis is set to debut Sunday, March 1st on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max. Watch it! Perhaps with your apps turned off.
📺 “Outlander: Season 8” Trailer: Caitríona Balfe and Sam Heughan Face the End of the Road as Time Finally Catches Up in the Final Season of the Beloved Time-Travel Romance Series — Premiering Friday, March 6th on STARZ
The thing about time travel is that when there’s no more road left, time finally catches up. And what once felt like eternity doesn’t last nearly as long as you thought. Claire and Jamie Fraser find themselves at the end of a long, winding road where their love still remains, but their future no longer stretches on forever in the eighth and final season of the widely popular STARZ series Outlander.
Since its debut in 2014, the series from executive producer Ronald D. Moore (Battlestar Galactica, For All Mankind) has grown into a full-blown phenomenon, earning a fiercely loyal fanbase drawn to its sweeping romance and historical scope. Its stars, Irish actress Caitríona Balfe and Scottish actor Sam Heughan, have gone from relative unknowns to global fan favorites, becoming the face of a love story that has endured wars, centuries, and the cruel passage of time itself.
But even a story built on time travel has to end somehow. Even the longest journeys eventually find their final resting place. And for Outlander, that moment has finally arrived.
Balfe and Heughan are back for their final season as Claire and Jamie Fraser, returning for one last, emotionally loaded chapter of their time-bending love story. After surviving history itself, the Frasers now face a far more personal last stand: defending their home from the chaos of war and confronting the looming possibility of Jamie’s death, a fate that time may no longer be willing to bend around.
Season 7 closed with Jamie resigning his Continental Army commission and returning home to Fraser’s Ridge with Claire, hoping to leave the American Revolution behind. But as Season 8 makes painfully clear, war has a habit of following the Frasers wherever they go. The Ridge, now a thriving settlement becomes ground zero for buried family secrets and choices that can’t be undone. This final stretch shifts the fight inward, as Jamie and Claire take a stand to protect what they’ve built—and each other—perhaps demanding the greatest sacrifice of all.
Returning alongside Balfe and Heughan are Sophie Skelton, Richard Rankin, John Bell, David Berry, Charles Vandervaart, Izzy Meikle-Small, Lauren Lyle, and César Domboy, rounding out a cast that has grown with the series over nearly a decade.
After years of crossing centuries and rewriting fate, Outlander reaches its endgame with plenty of heart. So expect tears. Expect closure. And expect a long-earned farewell—not only to the show, but also, quite possibly, to your STARZ subscription, which may have been hanging on just for this.
Based on Diana Gabaldon’s best-selling novel series, Outlander: Season 8, the final season, is set to premiere Friday, March 6th on STARZ.
📺 “Neighbors” Trailer: Real-Life Neighbor Disputes Turn Into a Late-Night Powder Keg in This A24-Produced Docuseries — Premiering Fri, February 13th on HBO & HBO MAX
There’s a unique type of discomfort and anger that settles in the moment you realize you’re living next door to someone you’d rather not. This new docuseries taps into that slow-boiling resentment, capturing what happens when neighbors stop seeing eye to eye and start seeing red.
From A24 and the producers of Marty Supreme comes Neighbors, a new late-night docuseries that turns everyday residential beefs into must-watch television. This isn’t scripted drama or reenactment fluff. It’s raw, often absurd, and occasionally jaw-dropping—cinéma vérité at its finest. Each episode drops viewers into the middle of an active dispute, capturing the tension, the personalities, and the wildly unhinged logic driving both sides of the fence as neighbors go from civil coexistence to outright hatred.
Across its six-episode season, the series introduces a rotating cast of larger-than-life characters from all corners of the country. Property lines become battlefields. Pets become pawns. Personal grudges metastasize into full-blown wars of attrition. And yes, at least one conflict somehow involves a yellow Speedo. No detail is too small when pride, territory, and ego are on the line.
The project comes from emerging directors Harrison Fishman and Dylan Redford, who spent over two years traveling across the U.S., embedding themselves directly into these neighbors’ lives. The result is a darkly funny yet honest portrait that feels uncomfortably intimate at times, hilarious in others, and often revealing in ways participants probably didn’t anticipate. It’s messy. It’s confrontational. And it quietly says a lot about the modern American obsession with ownership, identity, and being absolutely convinced you’re in the right.
The six-episode season premieres Friday, February 13th, with new episodes rolling out weekly on HBO and HBO Max. So lock your doors. Draw your boundaries. And maybe think twice before starting a feud with the people next door. Because you never know, they just might be lunatics.
📺 “The Audacity” Teaser: Billy Magnussen Chases Power Inside Silicon Valley in This New Darkly Comic Tech Industry Series with Sarah Goldberg, Zach Galifianakis & Simon Helberg — Premiering Sun, April 12th on AMC/AMC+
Power loves a good story, especially when it gets to call itself progress. Set inside Silicon Valley’s sealed ecosystem of billionaire egos, wellness jargon, and moral shortcuts, this darkly comic drama follows a data-mining CEO building an empire on insight, influence, and the belief that everything — including people — can be optimized. Billy Magnussen plays said CEO, convinced he’s shaping the future, while Sarah Goldberg’s psychiatrist and Zach Galifianakis’ uneasy power broker orbit a system designed to justify itself. Created by Emmy winner Jonathan Glatzer (Succession, Better Call Saul), the series peers past innovation and into the ego-fueled delusions sustaining it, where privacy is negotiable and ethics remain endlessly flexible.
📺 “Lord of the Flies” Trailer: Civilization Cracks When a Group of Marooned Schoolboys Are Left to Govern Themselves in Jack Thorne’s Adaptation of William Golding’s Classic Novel — Premiering Sun, February 8th on UK’s BBC and Australia’s STAN
Jack Thorne brings William Golding’s classic survival story back to the small screen with a stripped-down, tension-heavy adaptation that leans into fear, power, and moral collapse. This new take strands a group of schoolboys on a remote island where rules are invented, challenged, and ultimately weaponized. As leadership fractures and fear takes hold, the fight to survive quietly mutates into something far more dangerous. Civilization isn’t lost all at once. It’s dismantled piece by piece, with no adults left to stop it.
