It must have taken a special project to get Jim Carrey into his first regular TV series role in over 20 years, and this comedy certainly is special. It’s not just laugh-out-loud funny, but also has a more somber and emotional undercurrent, and much to say about a nice person trying to maintain sanity in an often not-so-nice world.

This half-hour Australian dramedy couldn’t be more entertaining. The series follows the laconic Ray Shoesmith (Scott Ryan) as a criminal-for-hire (he’s ruthless, but he’s got a heart), a father (endearing, but loses a dollar every time he swears), (NBC) an ex-husband NBC loves its former The Blacklist star (Ryan (something got Eggold), and so do we in this emotional medical screwed up drama that touches on everything we want in somewhere) and a healthcare system that’s determined to let a best friend (you doctors be doctors again. don’t want to ever cross any one of his friends).

Sons of Anarchy creator Kurt Sutter takes a familiar road with Mayans, which follows a Latino motorcycle club and their new prospect. It’s a Godfather-esque story in the making.

Penn Badgley (Gossip Girl’s most hated character) is amazingly twisted yet eerily charming in this dark tale of courtship.

NBA star — and newest member of the Los Angeles Lakers as of the 2018-19 season — LeBron James hasn’t waited to get to La-La Land before running down the court with his other, creative interests.

“Game of Thrones” To Get A Spinoff?

HBO’s programming president Casey Bloys confirmed that Game of Thrones’ six-episode bittersweet final season will begin in the first half of 2019. There is, however, a succession plan to HBO’s behemoth: a prequel that takes place thousands of years before Westeros as we know it. “We are doing a pilot that Jane Goldman wrote,” says Bloys. “We hope to be shooting sometime in the new year.”

Inspired by the real-life Bellevue, the oldest public hospital in America, this unique medical drama follows the brilliant and charming Dr. Max Goodwin (Ryan Eggold), the institution’s newest medical director, who sets out to tear up the bureaucracy and provide exceptional care. Can he disrupt the status quo and breathe new life into this understaffed, underfunded and underappreciated hospital, and return it to the glory that originally put it on the map?

Freema Agyeman, Janet Montgomery, Jocko Sims, Anupam Kher and Tyler Labine also star.

TV’s favorite sharp-tongued newswoman, Murphy Brown (Candice Bergen), returns as CBS resurrects the beloved sitcom that ran from 1988-98. In the new incarnation, veteran journalist Brown returns to the airwaves in response to “a divided nation, chaotic national discourse and rampant attacks on the press.” And she’s not coming alone. Murphy convinces her old FYI team — lifestyle reporter Corky Sherwood (Faith Ford), investigative reporter Frank Fontana (Joe Regalbuto) and frequently exasperated producer Miles Silverberg (Grant Shaud) — to sign on for a new daytime talk show. But Murphy’s biggest on-air competitor in her new time slot is none other than Avery Brown (Jake McDorman), now all grown up and of a sociopolitical mindset that’s a far cry from his mom’s.

Premieres on CBS Sept. 27

Jim Carrey stars as Jeff Pickles, better known to young TV viewers as Mr. Pickles from the long-running series Mr. Pickles’ Puppet Time. Mr. Pickles is an icon of children’s television and a beacon of kindness and wisdom to America’s impressionable young minds. But when Jeff’s family life implodes, he finds no fairy tale, fable or puppet will guide him through this crisis, which advances faster than his means to cope. The result: A kind man in a cruel world faces a slow leak of sanity as hilarious as it is heartbreaking. Frank Langella, Catherine Keener and Judy Greer also star.

Manifest

This relationship drama seeks to find answers to what happened to a missing plane and all of its passengers when it returns five years later. For the people aboard, it was just a three-hour timespan, but for their families and friends, it’s been five years of grief and life changes. “I thought of this crazy idea 10 years ago driving in a minivan with my family halfway between L.A. and the Grand Canyon. And I told everybody in town about it, and everybody thought it was ridiculous, so I put it on the shelf,” says series creator Jeff Rake.

“Then the Malaysia Airlines flight disappeared, and suddenly my pie-in-the-sky crazy idea didn’t feel as crazy and impossible after all. So I dusted that old idea off the shelf, and the good people at Warner Bros. and NBC thought it was worth pursuing, and here we are 10 years later.”

Premieres on NBC Sept. 24

Ever-prolific producer Dick Wolf (of the Law & Order and Chicago franchises) is back with another procedural crime drama, this one focused on New York City’s office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Missy Peregrym and Zeeko Zaki lead the cast as partners in the drama that follows the successful Wolf formula of creating stories and cases drawn from topical headlines of the day.

Through a series of interviews with Lacy, the legend looks back on the various “acts” of her life — which have seen her be everything from sex symbol to political activist to fitness tycoon — including what the still busy and now 80-something actress calls the beginning of her last act.

Warriors of Liberty City NBA star LeBron James is an executive producer behind this six-part series about the titular Liberty City, a crime-ridden Miami neighborhood that is also known as having produced some of the biggest names in the NFL. The series follows a season with the Liberty City Warriors, a youth football program founded by an unlikely mentor: hip-hop pioneer Luther Campbell, better known as “Uncle Luke.” Life, like football, is a contact sport, and for the kids and families of Liberty City, being a Warrior holds the key to both.
