Fall TV Preview: 28 Shows to Get Excited About

“English Teacher” (September 2, FX)

Evan Marquez (Brian Jordan Alvarez) is a high school English teacher just trying to get by — but his colleagues, students, and seemingly the entire suburban Texas town where he works don’t seem to want that. After an angry parent brings Evan under scrutiny for having kissed his ex-boyfriend (Jordan Firstman) in front of students, he’s banned from dating faculty members… right as the school hires the handsome Harry (Langston Kerman). The series is executive produced by Alvarez, Paul Simms, Jonathan Krisel, and Dave King, and also stars Stephanie Koenig, Enrico Colantoni, Sean Patton, and Carmen Cristopher. —PK

“Slow Horses” Season 4 (September 4, Apple TV+)

It’s been a steady climb to small-screen spy thriller supremacy, but with nine Emmy nominations, including one for Outstanding Drama Series, “Slow Horses” has finally reached its mountaintop. The Apple TV+ series — about a group of rag-tag MI5 agents who are relegated to a punitive administrative posting that’s rife with its own underdog adventures — has built a fervent fanbase since premiering in 2022. That popularity can be attributed to plenty of strong elements, but chief among them is a stellar cast that makes brilliant work of the series’ baked-in tragicomedy.

The fate of River Cartwright (Jack Lowden) was left hanging in the balance at the end of Season 3, but all eyes will be on Diana (Kristin Scott Thomas) when the series returns. What hellish next chapter in the Project Footprint saga was that cryptic conversation with Lamb (Gary Oldman) foreshadowing in the explosive finale? Audiences can’t be sure, but one thing is certain…and that is…Slow Bros for life! —AF

“The Perfect Couple” (September 5, Netflix)

Twisty murder mystery fans, this one is for you. Based on the bestselling book of the same name by Elin Hilderbrand, this six-part miniseries follows the events before and after a fancy wedding weekend on Nantucket, when one of the wedding party shows up dead on the beach the morning of the ceremony. As the case unspools, nearly everyone becomes a suspect at one point or another. Don’t dig for spoilers; let the case — and the all-star cast, including Nicole Kidman, Liev Schreiber, Dakota Fanning, Meghann Fahy, and more — wash over you. You’ll be guessing until the very end. —ES

“Fight Night: The Million Dollar Heist” (September 5, Peacock)

In 1970, two major events occurred on the same night: Muhammad Ali prepared for a historic comeback fight, and an armed robbery would cause a chain of events that changed the city of Atlanta forever. Based on the true crime podcast and showrun by Shaye Ogbonna, this series stars Kevin Hart as Chicken Man, the host of an elite fight night afterparty who ends up being the top suspect in the robbery investigation. To clear his name, he’ll need the help of an old enemy, detective J.D. Hudson (Don Cheadle) and hope that he isn’t betrayed once again. Also starring Samuel L. Jackson, Taraji P. Henson, and Terrence Howard. Jason Horwitch joins Ogbonna as co-showrunner and executive producer. —PK

“How to Die Alone” (September 13, Hulu)

Mel (Natasha Rothwell) is a single 30-something with the usual woes while working her thankless job at John F. Kennedy International airport — where she watches flights take off daily but has never traveled anywhere herself. But a combination of good and bad and just plain wild luck gives her a new lease on life and a thirst for adventure.

The Onyx Collective series comes from Rothwell, embodying a character somewhere in between the gravitas of Belinda on “The White Lotus” and chaotic charisma of “Insecure”s Kelli. Rothwell co-showruns and executive produces with Vera Santamaria, with Conrad Ricamora, Jocko Sims, and KeiLyn Durrel Jones rounding out the main cast. —PK

“High Potential” (September 17, ABC)

Kaitlin Olson plays a single mom recruited to the LAPD Major Crimes unit in this series from Drew Goddard, executive produced with Todd Harthan and Sarah Esberg. Morgan’s (Olson) “exceptional mind” and “unconventional knack for solving crimes” are coveted assets for the LAPD, but immediately cause friction with her and her more traditional partner Karadec (Daniel Sunjata). Also starring Javicia Leslie, Deniz Akdeniz, Amirah J, Matthew Lamb, and Judy Reyes. —PK

“Agatha All Along” (September 18, Disney+)

Absent the dominant context, there are plenty of good reasons to get excited about a new TV show starring Kathryn Hahn. First and foremost, what I just said: It’s a TV show starring Kathryn Hahn. Second (for some) is a strong supporting cast featuring the likes of Aubrey Plaza, Patti Lupone, Debra Jo Rupp, Joe Locke, and Sasheer Zamata, or perhaps they’re more excited about the return of “WandaVision” creator Jac Schaeffer (who serves as creator and showrunner here), or maybe even new songs written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, the two-time Academy Award winners behind the original bop, “Agatha All Along.”

But the broader context can’t be avoided. Marvel TV has seen diminishing returns since “WandaVision,” and the MCU in general is going through a bit of a soft reboot. “Agatha All Along” is technically a spinoff of that well-received first series, so there’s reason to believe it can recapture the magic, but it was also conceived and shot before Kevin Feige scaled back production and trimmed budgets. Is this series the future of Marvel TV? The past? Or just a one-off bit of fun before a new grand plan gets put into place? (The latter may be the best case scenario.) —BT

“FX’s American Sports Story: Aaron Hernandez” (September 17, FX)

FX’s collection of Ryan Murphy anthologies grows by one this fall with “American Sports Story,” a true crime dramatization charting the rise and fall of former Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez. The NFL player was in the national spotlight for three seasons as a pro-athlete before the 2013 murder of semi-pro linebacker Odin Lloyd. Hernandez was convicted on first-degree murder charges in 2015. He was subsequently indicted for the double homicide of Daniel de Abreu and Safira Furtado, but was acquitted in a 2017 trial.

Hernandez died by suicide just days after that verdict, still in jail, and wrote in a letter to his then-fiancé Shayanna Jenkins, “Tell my story fully but never think anything besides how much I love you.”

Known for Spielberg’s “West Side Story” and “Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” Josh Andrés Rivera will star as Hernandez for “American Sports Story.” The series aims to examine how the 27-year-old’s complex life experiences — including head injuries sustained during his time in the NFL — may have contributed to these events, previously explored by the podcast “Gladiator” from the Boston Globe and Wondery. Jaylen Barron, Lindsay Mendez, Ean Castellanos, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Tammy Blanchard, and more complete the cast. —AF

“The Penguin” (September 19, HBO)

Lauren LeFranc is known as a producer for the sci-fi series “Impulse” — a spin-off of the 2008 film “Jumper” — and Marvel’s “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” She’ll soon combine those talents as showrunner, expanding a superhero universe with HBO’s “The Penguin.” Starring Colin Farrell as the titular bad bird (AKA criminal kingpin Oz Cobb), the upcoming supervillain drama doubles as the next chapter in Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” saga. That version of Gotham kicked off with Warner Bros.’ vaguely emo Robert Pattinson flick from 2022, producing a bloody watercolor set ideal for more moody experimenting.

Farrell had a supporting but still key role in the box office juggernaut. Not only was The Penguin heavily featured in a car chase that’s widely remembered among the film’s best scenes, but he was also essential to providing audiences with a way into the comic book city’s sprawling criminal underworld. Although events of “The Penguin” are set only a few weeks after the end of “The Batman,” the quasi-origin story — which has been described as its creators as Shakespearean — serves to make the character an even bigger bad. It also tees up Farrell’s confirmed part in the still forthcoming “The Batman Part II.” —AF

“Matlock” (September 22, CBS)

I ask, “Who’s our modern-day Andy Griffith?” and you all answer, “Kathy Bates!” OK, maybe the star of “Misery” isn’t your first thought to fill out Sheriff Taylor’s uniform, but CBS is betting she can carry a meta reboot of Griffith’s other hit series. In the new iteration of NBC’s hit 1980s legal procedural (and then ABC’s hit ‘90s legal procedural), Bates stars as Madeline Matlock, a brilliant legal mind who’s hired on at a new firm where, per CBS, “she uses her unassuming demeanor and wily tactics to win cases.” Developed by “Jane the Virgin” creator Jennie Snyder Urman, this “Matlock” doesn’t cast Bates as the daughter or cousin of Griffith’s folksy Harvard graduate; she just saw the show on TV like the rest of us and happens to share his last name. Sounds like a solid basis for a courtroom mystery to me! Just one question: Will she love hot dogs? —BT

“Doctor Odyssey” (September 26, ABC)

Max (Joshua Jackson) is the doctor on call for a luxury cruise ship in this procedural series from Ryan Murphy. With the help of a small and curated medical team, Max explores the unique medical plights of the maritime world and tries not to get sucked into vacation mode himself. Executive produced by Ryan Murphy, Jon Robin Baitz, and Joe Baken, directed by Paris Barclay. The series also stars Phillipa Soo, Sean Teale, and Don Johnson. —PK

“Grotesquerie” (September 25, FX)

Ryan Murphy is once again playing the horror game, this time starring Niecy Nash-Betts, alongside Courtney B. Vance, Lesley Manville, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, and Raven Goodwin. Travis Kelce will guest star.

Here’s the official description: “A series of heinous crimes have unsettled a small community. Detective Lois Tryon (Nash-Betts) feels these crimes are eerily personal, as if someone — or something — is taunting her. At home, Lois grapples with a strained relationship with her daughter, a husband in long-term hospital care and her own inner demons. With no leads and unsure of where to turn, she accepts the help of Sister Megan (Micaela Diamond), a nun and journalist with the Catholic Guardian. Sister Megan, with her own difficult past, has seen the worst of humanity, yet she still believes in its capacity for good. Lois, on the other hand, fears the world is succumbing to evil. As Lois and Sister Megan string together clues, they find themselves ensnared in a sinister web that only seems to raise more questions than answers.”

Murphy will direct some of the show as well. “Grotesquerie” is Murphy’s first original for FX since his Netflix deal wrapped. —ES

“Nobody Wants This” (September 26, Netflix)

It’s a millennial dream in this 10-part rom-com starring Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. Bell is a brash, agnostic California girl who hosts a popular podcast alongside her sister (“Succession” favorite Justine Lupe). Brody plays a religious man who couldn’t be more her opposite — but you know what they say about opposites and attracting. This thing is a delight, an honest-to-goodness thoughtful romantic comedy that has plenty of heart and surprises. To say more would give away too many of the expected pleasures, but definitely add this one to your queue — it’ll be a buzzy breakout of the fall. Created by Erin Foster (“Barely Famous”), it also stars Timothy Simons and Tovah Feldshuh. —ES

“Abbott Elementary” Season 4 (October 9, ABC)

Do not bemoan the death of the great American sitcom if you’re sleeping on “Abbott Elementary.” Quinta Brunson’s comedy about a group of school teachers may have shed its initial momentum over the years, but it’s still TV’s most reliable and heartfelt weekly half hour with a lethal joke density to boot. Season 3 ended on a definitive note for the prolonged will-they/won’t-they of Janine (Brunson) and Gregory (Tyler James Williams), and while I’ve been squirming over those two for years now, I will be tuning in as a loyal member of the Mr. Johnson (William Stanford Davis) Fan Club. If that doesn’t sway you, you’re entitled to your opinion — but that man taught me to know trash when I see it. —PK

“Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft” (October 10, Netflix)

Square Enix did Lara Croft fans proud with the video game publisher’s rebooted “Tomb Raider” trilogy, released from 2013 to 2018. Not to be confused with the middling movie adaptations (hey, Alicia Vikander did her best!), this version of everyone’s favorite ponytail-wearing, secret-society-fighting, tomb-raiding archaeologist connected so well with audiences that Netflix expanded it into an animated series. Bridging the events of the original games with the origin story spinoffs, “Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft” sees Hayley Atwell voice the character at a critical moment in her… career? Is that what you call it?

When a dangerous ancient artifact is stolen from Croft Manor, Lara must leave her expeditious gang of friends, introduced through the Square Enix games, to confront the ghosts of her past. Earl Baylon, who voiced Lara’s pal Jonah in the games, will reprise his character for the show.

From Legendary Television, “The Legend of Lara Croft” has Tasha Huo (“The Witcher: Blood Origin”) serving as executive producer and showrunner. Don’t mix this series up with the other “Tomb Raider” TV show; that one is a live-action Prime Video project with Phoebe Waller-Bridge attached as writer and EP. —AF

“Teacup” (October 10, Peacock)

Don’t be fooled by the dainty title — this is no children’s party. “Teacup” is adapted from Robert McCammon’s 1988 novel “Stinger” and executive produced by horror master James Wan. The plot is a bit of a mystery — something about a group of rural Georgians facing a mysterious threat to their basic survival — and the first teaser-trailer doesn’t offer much more than extremely creepy vibes. (Gas masks in the deep woods? Yikes!) But the cast tells us more than enough to tune in: Yvonne Strahovski finally gets the lead role she deserves after acing so many seasons of “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and she’s joined by Scott Speedman, Chaske Spencer, Kathy Baker, Caleb Dolden, Luciano Leroux, and Rob Morgan, in a series written and produced by Ian McCulloch (“Yellowstone,” “Deputy”). We’ll see if “Teacup” becomes a Halloween treat — or a disappointing trick — this October. —BT

“Disclaimer” (October 11, Apple TV+)

Based on the book by Renée Knight, this adaptation is pulling in all the heavyweights: The seven-episode miniseries is directed by Alfonso Cuarón and stars Cate Blanchett and Kevin Kline. It centers on a successful journalist (Blanchett) famous for revealing the deep secrets of others in her work. One day, a novel appears on her doorstep and she is horrified to realize she is the main character — and this mysterious author clearly knows her own deepest, dark secret.

In a note to press, Cuarón noted, “I was immediately drawn to the thematic and character complexity of Renée Knight’s novel, and it inspired me to approach the various perspectives utilizing different cinematic languages to explore how our most deeply held beliefs, often the virtues that define us, can influence our perception of reality.” —ES

“Shrinking” Season 2 (October 16, Apple TV+)

The first season of “Shrinking” made two things abundantly clear: Harrison Ford should star in more comedies, and this particular comedy may be the wrong kind of nuts. Speaking to the latter observation first, Season 1 of Bill Lawrence, Jason Segel, and Brett Goldstein’s L.A.-based Apple series saw therapist Jimmy Laird (Segel) trot out a new strategy at work: radical, decisive, and unfiltered advice. Rather than talk and talk, week after week, asking questions without providing any answers himself, Jimmy decided to dole out judgement on his patients’ lives. Rather than patiently coach a couple through a never-ending crisis, maybe it’s better for him to tell them to break up. Instead of keeping a professional distance between himself and a patient with a history of violence, why not invite him to live in his backyard?

But the real doozy came at the very end of the season, when Grace takes Jimmy’s advice too far, and pushes her manipulative, verbally abusive husband off a cliff. Is he… dead? Is he… injured? Does he know that his wife’s therapist basically instructed her to push back — literally — on her partner’s behavior? Surely, if not a criminal investigation, then a lawsuit is on the way, and how “Shrinking” handles a massive ethical breach will go a long way toward the series’ continued growth. After all, Jimmy is very aware what he’s doing is morally dubious, maybe even wrong. His mentor tells him as much all the time, which means the show knows what it’s doing (to an extent). Plus, when Jimmy’s not being a bad therapist, “Shrinking” is a great hang. In addition to Jessica Williams, Michael Urie, and Christa Miller, Season 2 is bringing another one of its co-creators in front of the camera (“Ted Lasso” favorite Goldstein). And in case you forgot: Harrison Ford is back! He’s the best! —BT

“Hysteria!” (October 18, Peacock)

It’s the 1980s, and a star high school quarterback has gone missing in Southeast Michigan, where the ominous symbol left in his wake sparks widespread fear of Satanic cults. The town of Happy Hollow is devastated, but vulnerable, which is how a group of students in a heavy metal band stumble upon their idea: align themselves the occult and turn notoriety into fame. It seems foolproof until the town is besieged by “murders, kidnappings, and reported ‘supernatural activity'” that points back to the band and to a deadly trap of their own making. Written and executive produced by Matthew Scott Kane and David A. Goodman, starring Julie Bowen, Anna Camp, Emjay Anthony, Chiara Aurelia, Kezii Curtis and Nikki Hahn. —PK

“What We Do in the Shadows” Season 6 (October 21, FX)

All good things come to an end, even when they’re literally designed to live forever. “What We Do in the Shadows,” Paul Simms’ exquisitely imaginative FX comedy, seized the opportunity presented by its premise — a gaggle of immortal vampires living together in a decrepit Long Island house — and genre, crafting a sitcom where nothing really changed and yet everything felt fresh, exciting, and morbidly cool. Week after week, viewers never knew exactly where the story would go, which made for richly satisfying storytelling and provided ample space for hilarity.

Now, the final season is upon us. Season 5 ends with Guillermo rejecting his long-sought transformation, choosing to remain a human rather than become a vampire. The question then becomes: How does he fit in with the group? He can’t be Nandor’s familiar if he’s not working toward a promotion (so to speak), and he can’t rightly hang around the house without protection. (Laszlo and Nadja might simply get hungry one night and not want to go out hunting for prey, like those nights you don’t want to cook and make do with whatever paltry scraps can be pulled from the cupboard.) So what will he do? What will they all do? Frankly, I can’t imagine a better primary question for a show that’s always approached its fantasy world with an open mind. Undoubtedly, we’ll be astonished by what’s to come. —BT

“Before” (October 25, Apple TV+)

Billy Crystal isn’t the sort of talent you typically see attached to a psychological thriller, but that’s what makes Apple TV+’s “Before” so intriguing. Created and written by Sarah Thorp — who executive produces alongside Crystal and Eric Roth — this ten-part supernatural mystery centers on child psychologist Eli (Crystal). The struggling protagonist is still coping with the death of his late wife, Lynn (Judith Light), when a troubled young patient, Noah (Jacobi Jupe), demonstrates “a haunting connection to Eli’s past.”

The streamer’s vague wording in the announcement makes it all sounds very “Sixth Sense,” but with a heavyweight comedian like Crystal onboard, there’s got to be more than wannabe Bruce Willis going on here. Rosie Perez, Maria Dizzia, and Ava Lalezarzadeh also appear. Crystal has frequently played himself on TV (“Never Have I Ever,” “Modern Family,” “The Comedians”) but, outside of voicing Mike Wazowski on “Monsters at Work,” this marks his first major TV role since the late-seventies sitcom, “Soap.” —AF

“Somebody Somewhere” (October 27, HBO)

Bridget Everett’s poignant half-hour series returns for a final season with Sam (Everett) continuing to find unexpected hope and challenges in her hometown. “The heart of Somebody Somewhere is friendship, and we will always hold dear the friendships on the screen and those forged behind the camera,” Everett said in an HBO press release thanking the HBO team, cast and crew. Season 3 is written by Hannah Bos and Paul Thureen, Bridget Everett, Lisa Kron, and Lennon Parham, and directed by Jay Duplass, Robert Cohen, and Lennon Parham. —PK

“The Diplomat” Season 2 (October 31, Netflix)

“The Diplomat” Season 1 left things on a giant, fire-y cliffhanger so expect those pieces to fall when the drama, starring Keri Russell as Kate, the U.S. ambassador to the U.K., returns for its sophomore season. The show, from “Homeland” alum Deborah Cahn, became an Emmy-nominated breakout hit for Netflix, with its mix of spy twists and wry commentary. Co-starring Rufus Sewell as Kate’s infuriating, charismatic husband Hal, Season 2 will find Allison Janney joining the cast as Vice President Grace Penn.

The show was an IndieWire staff favorite when it premiered in 2023, so now’s the moment to catch up on the eight-episode first season so fans can be ready to binge when Season 2 drops October 31. —ES

“Yellowstone” Season 5, Part 2 (November 10, Paramount Network)

“Yellowstone” the series is ending, but “Yellowstone” the story will never end — or, at the very least, it’ll keep riding through two more spinoffs (and maybe a Season 6). Still, the once-considered final episodes from Paramount’s breakthrough original series will start rolling out this November, bringing the five-season modern western to some sort of conclusion (after starting Season 5 way back in fall 2022). At the moment, Kevin Costner is not expected to return, although the fate of his character, John Dutton, remains up in the air. Everything else about the so-called ending is being kept under wraps tighter than a lassoed steer, but fans can expect six more episodes before “Yellowstone” closes its barn doors for good.

(OK, it’s obviously not for good. Following “1883” and “1923,” a third prequel has been announced, tentatively titled “1944,”and Paramount has already ordered “The Madison,” a sequel series starring Michelle Pfeiffer. So don’t be surprised if, during these last six episodes, Taylor Sheridan sets up the next chapter with a little chatter about Pfeiffer’s character, Ms. McIntosh.) —BT

“The Day of the Jackal” (November 7, Peacock)

Peacock’s “The Day of the Jackal” stars Eddie Redmayne and Lashana Lynch in a “contemporary reimagining” of author Frederick Forsyth’s well-loved political thriller from 1973. Starring as the titular Jackal, Redmayne plays a chameleon-like assassin who is being hunted by Lynch’s dead-set MI6 agent, Bianca, in a relentless game of country-hopping cat-and-mouse.

If “Killing Eve” was your thing, then it sounds like this might be too. Creator and writer Ronan Bennett is reportedly using plenty of the original story from the book — which has been made into multiple films — but retrofitting that known commodity for a contemporary audience keyed into current events. The series is directed by Brian Kirk, known for “Game of Thrones” and “Luther.” Actor Florisa Kamara also appears as Bianca’s daughter, Jasmine. —AF

“St. Denis Medical” (November 12, NBC)

Created by Justin Spitzer (“Superstore”) and Eric Ledgin (“American Auto”), this new mockumentary sitcom set in a hospital has impressive people on both sides of the camera. “Superstore” and “American Auto” are two of the best recent broadcast sitcoms, and now their writer-producers have created something new for Wendi McLendon-Covey, David Alan Grier, and Allison Tolman to play in. Doctors and nurses have long made for solid, sustainable characters, and while it’s been a minute since a comedy found its footing around so much death (“Children’s Hospital”? Maybe “Scrubs”?), the satiric wit and topical subject matter of Spitzer and Ledgin’s past hits provide ample reason to believe “St. Denis” can pull through. —BT

“The Madness” (November 28, Netflix)

“Starring Colman Domingo” should be enough to get viewers tuning into anything, and Stephen Belber’s “The Madness” doesn’t stop there. Domingo plays media pundit Muncie Daniels, who stumbles across a dead body while running through the woods and ends up embroiled in a murder investigation. Belber is joined by co-showrunner V.J. Boyd, who worked on “Justified” and “S.W.A.T.”

Domingo is joined by cast members Marsha Stephanie Blake, Gabrielle Graham, John Ortiz, Tamsin Topolski, and Thaddeus J. Mixon. The actor says the show ponders deep questions such as “How did we get here? What are we going to do about it now? And how are we going to get some sanity in our future?” —PK

“A Man on the Inside” (November, Netflix)

Easily the year’s most anticipated series— wait, I’m sorry, my editor is challenging me on this claim. She’s trying to say there are way bigger shows coming out, like a new Marvel series, a live-action spinoff of “The Batman” starring Oscar nominee Colin Farrell, and a little show on Apple created by Alfonso Cuaron, starring Cate “Lydia Tar” Blanchett. Well, I hear all that. I do. But none of those shows star TV icon Ted Danson, the legend behind everything from “Becker” and “Bored To Death” to TV’s greatest sitcom of all time, “Cheers.” Plus, none of those shows come from a producer behind “The Office,” “Rutherford Falls,” and “Hacks,” who also happens to be the creator of “Parks and Recreation,” “Brooklyn Nine-Nine” (co-creator, technically), and “The Good Place.”

Oops, did I tip my winning hand? That’s right! It’s a “Good Place” reunion! Michael Schur + Ted Danson = the most anticipated show of the fall! The year! All time? OK, OK, I’ll calm down. Still, “A Man Inside” sounds fun as hell (and The Bad Place proved to be plenty fun). Danson stars as Charles, a retiree who answers an ad placed by a private investigator and then becomes a mole embroiled in a secret investigation. If that sounds somewhat familiar, then you likely saw “The Mole Agent,” the Oscar-nominated documentary from 2021 on which “A Man on the Inside” is based. Co-starring Mary Elizabeth Ellis (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”), Stephanie Beatriz (“Brooklyn Nine-Nine” — another reunion!), Stephen McKinley Henderson (“Dune”!), Sally Struthers, Lilah Richcreek Estrada, Marc Evan Jackson (“The Good Place” again!), and Margaret Avery. Super-producer and long-time Schur collaborator Morgan Sackett is on board as an E.P. as well, making “A Man on the Inside” — yes, I think I’ve earned this — THE MOST ANTICIPATED SERIES OF THE YEAR!! LET’S GOOOOOO!! —BT
