2024 is going to be a great year for television and streaming. After much of 2023 was hindered by the writers’ and actors’ strikes, audiences are finally going to be treated to a wealth of new and returning shows this year.

Not only are tons of shows returning with new seasons – like The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live, which will continue the love story between Rick and Michonne as they struggle to build a relationship in a crumbling world.

Another highly-anticipated series will be the live-action Star Wars entry Episode I, making it set in an era earlier than any live-action Star Wars entry so far. On top of that, it looks to be highly stylized and full of mystery, all while diving into the story and lore of the Jedi.

We also have tons of new shows that have attracted huge A-List Hollywood talent, making 2024’s TV season feel more like a cinematic experience. From Kate Winslet starring as a tyrant in The Sympathizer, tons of huge stars will be leading series this year. Other big names starring in shows this year include Jodie Foster, Colin Farrell, and Naomi Watts, among many others.

Some other big premieres happening this year include the spin-off continued story of Dune: Prophecy premiering on Max this fall.
