Seeing if he can carry a series as the lead will be his biggest case yet in this prequel. ### Bloodline (Netflix)  From left: Ben Mendelsohn as Danny Rayburn and Kyle Chandler as John Rayburn in Bloodline Netflix Netflix has gone to Washington, DC (_House of Cards_), prison (_Orange Is the New Black_) and Mongolia (_Marco Polo_); now it’s off to the Florida Keys for its own take on the dark family soap, with _Friday Night Lights_‘ Kyle Chandler. ### The Comedians (FX)  Billy Crystal Tibrina Hobson—FilmMagic Comedy veteran Billy Crystal is paired up with much younger performer Josh Gad in the story of a comedy veteran paired up with a much younger performer. It’s a stretch, but they just might pull it off! ### Empire (Fox) Following on ABC’s _Nashville_ and Starz’s _Power_, Fox launches a much-anticipated music business drama with Terrence Howard as an ailing hip-hop mogul trying to decide who will inherit his record label. ### Fresh Off the Boat (ABC)  Forrest Wheeler as Emery, Ian Chen as Evan, Randall Park as Louis, Hudson Yang as Eddie and Constance Wu as Jessica Kevin Foley—ABC Adapted from the memoir by star chef Eddie Huang, this midseason comedy promises an irreverent coming-of-age story about the son of Taiwanese immigrants. ### Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell (BBC America)  Bertie Carvel as Jonathan Strange and Eddie Marsan as Mr. Norrell BBC America In this adaptation of the 2004 Susanna Clarke novel, magic returns to 19th-century Britain through the efforts of two rival sorcerers. The book was eerie and transporting; I can’t wait for the miniseries to apparate. ### The Last Man on Earth (Fox) One of the most curious projects announced for this broadcast network season is a futuristic comedy with Will Forte by his lonesome on a vacated planet–or maybe not, as the show has already cast Kristen Schall and January Jones. (Hey, it’s not like they named it Last Human on Earth.) ### The Late Show With Stephen Colbert (CBS)  Stephen Colbert Mark Sagliocco—FilmMagic/Getty Images After David Letterman ends an era in late night, we finally get to see the host rip off that formidable mask of irony. A (Colbert) nation will now get to find out what’s underneath. ### The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore (Comedy Central)  Larry Wilmore Comedy Central Jon Stewart’s dry-witted “senior black correspondent” takes over Stephen Colbert’s old timeslot with a panel discussion show that he says will focus on the underdog. No word on whether he gets to keep Colbert’s eagle. ### Scream Queens (Fox)  Emma Roberts Taylor Hill—FilmMagic/Getty Images He did comedy (_Glee_), he did horror (_American Horror Story_); now, with Emma Roberts and Halloween vet Jamie Lee Curtis, Ryan Murphy will try his first horror-comedy. (The unintentional horror-comedy of _Nip/Tuck_ doesn’t count.) ### Togetherness (HBO) The stressed -out parents of young kids add yet further complications to their lives when her sister and his best friend move in with them and strike up a friendship. If nothing else, it has to be better than those Sprint “framily” ads. ### Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Netflix)  Ellie Kemper Steve Sands—GC Images/Getty Images Considering NBC’s recent history with launching new comedies, the fact that the network decided this Tina Fey–written show an escapee from a doomsday cult (Ellie Kemper) sounds like an endorsement to me. Another endorsement: Netflix has already signed on for two seasons. ### Untitled Rock and Roll Drama (HBO)  Mick Jagger Fiona Goodall—Getty Images You’d think that if Martin Scorsese, Mick Jagger and _Boardwalk Empire_‘s Terence Winter had enough material to get HBO to commit to this series about the NYC music scene in the 1970s, they’d have enough to think of a name. For now, I’m calling it Exile on Mean Streets. ### Westworld (HBO)  J.J. Abrams Jason LaVeris—FilmMagic/Getty Images We know very little about this J.J. Abrams dystopian drama except that it’s adapted from the ’70 movie about theme park robots gone wild, and that the teaser promos are creepy as hell. Maybe Stephen Hawking was right about artificial intelligence being the end of all of us. ### Wolf Hall (PBS)  Mark Rylance as Thomas Cromwell PBS Powerful, oversexed and big on appetite, Henry VIII was a TV antihero before there were TV antiheroes–as Showtime realized with its oft-ridiculous _The Tudors_. Hilary Mantel’s novel, focusing on one of his crafty political counselors, may provide better fodder for fleshing the king out. _Read next:_ [_Watch the Highs and Lows of 2014 in 165 Seconds_](http://time.com/3646830/video-highs-lows-2014/?xid=time%5Freadnext) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3640342/2015-tv-shows-most-anticipated/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3640342/2015-tv-shows-most-anticipated/"},"headline":"15 Shows We're Curious to Watch in 2015","datePublished":"2014-12-29T10:00:24.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T05:06:34.998Z","description":"From Stephen Colbert taking the helm of The Late Show to Ryan Murphy's newest horror production, these are the most anticipated shows of next year","url":"https://time.com/3640342/2015-tv-shows-most-anticipated/","keywords":["Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"James Poniewozik","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/james-poniewozik/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3640342/2015-tv-shows-most-anticipated/","name":"15 Shows We're Curious to Watch in 2015"}}]}] ```
