  • 1. In “Westworld” season two on HBO, things get chaotic in Westworld and viewers learn more about the history of the park.

  • 2. Season 2 of ,”This is not happening” on Comedy Central: Comedians tell stories of crazy things that happened to them. Hilarity ensues.

  • 3. Move over, vampires! In “Siren” on Freeform, mermaids get their chance to shine as the hot new fantasy creature to captivate audiences. These mermaids are not the fun creatures that Disney’s dreamt up. Sci-fi buffs and grown-up fans of the “Little Mermaid” will enjoy this show which is in its first season.

  • 4. In season 5 of “Silicon Valley”on HBO, there is a new antagonist in town. Erlich Bachman is no more and there are many challenges that Pied Piper has to face in its infancy. This season stays fresh, and continues to pack a lot of content into a 30 minute slot every week.

  • 5. Season seven of “New Girl” on FOX shows us that things might change for this gaggle of friends but they are still find ways to remain as tight-knit as ever. The introduction of a new character, Schmidt and CeCe’s daughter also adds a new arc to explore this season.

  • 6. “Life Sentence” on the CW, focuses on the protagonist’s descent after a major life change. The writing is good, and they manage to tackle heavy issues without making it cheesy.

  • 7. “Alex, Inc.” on ABC is Zach Braff’s return to primetime television. The show is about the inception of a podcast, about the making of said podcast. “Alex, Inc.” is wholesome, funny and very relevant in today’s changing career landscape and highlights the popularity of untraditional media types.

  • 8. In “Barry” on HBO, Bill Hader plays the role of an empathetic hitman which one can assume does not go well. Fans of the popular Netflix series, “End of the F***ing World” will probably enjoy this show because it’s in the same comedic horror genre.
