February TV Preview: 15 New Shows to Watch

For a short month, February has never pulled its punches.

While our friends on IndieWire’s film team prepare for the Oscars, the month kicks off with the Grammy Awards on February 2, every year’s biggest TV and music crossover. It’s also host to one of the biggest TV events of the decade if not the century: the “Saturday Night Live” fiftieth anniversary celebration, a star-studded tribute to a storied institution (catch up on “SNL50” on Peacock!).

February is a big month for Netflix, starting with the Kaitlyn-Dever led “Apple Cider Vinegar,” a delicious story of social media fraud in set in the infancy of Instagram. That would be a heavy hitter in any month, but the streamer keeps going; with “Zero Day” (featuring Robert De Niro, Jesse Plemons, Angela Bassett, Connie Britton, Lizzy Caplan, Dan Stevens, and Matthew Modine, TO NAME A FEW), then with “Running Point” from executive producers Mindy Kaling, Ike Barinholtz, and David Stassen (starring Kate Hudson, Brenda Song, Justin Theroux, Jay Ellis, and Drew Tarver TO NAME A FEW).

Speaking of punches, this month marks the return of “Peaky Blinders” creator Steven Knight with Hulu’s “A Thousand Blows,” an immigrant story set in 1880s London. NBC will also launch “Suits L.A.” to build out the franchise popularized by streaming, and “Grosse Pointe Garden Society,” about polished suburbanites hiding a dark secret.
