Going Dutch...

There was lots of great TV in 2024 even though it was kind of a weird year due to the 2023 writers’ and actors’ strikes. The long-gestating Shōgun delivered and won a record 18 Emmys to boot. Hacks produced its best season yet and an Emmy shocker. X-Men ’97 was nostalgia done right. True Detective returned to form (and angered deposed creator Nic Pizzolatto) with its Night Country installment. And Baby Reindeer – which was on virtually no one’s radar at this point last year – became a surprise global smash. Those are just a few of this year’s highlights. But 2025 could be even better and bigger with new seasons of shows delayed by the strikes and some old favorites taking their final bows on the docket alongside plenty of intriguing new titles.

Here are our 25 most anticipated shows of ’25 in chronological order of release.

Sterling K. Brown is under investigation for the murder of the president in his new series, Paradise.

The Hulu series was announced back in 2023, but not much was known at the time about what Brown and This Is Us creator Dan Fogelman had in store for their reunion project. Hulu handed out a straight-to-series order less than a year after their Emmy-winning and beloved NBC drama wrapped its storied run.

Now, Paradise is taking shape with a trailer, synopsis and premiere date of Jan. 28, 2025 — as well as a stunt sending viewers to the @ParadiseonHulu Instagram account for more show information before the account goes private on Friday. The series launches with three episodes, with the remaining episodes releasing weekly.

Here’s the logline: “Paradise is set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquility explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds.

“This Is Us” creator Dan Fogelman returns to television with “Paradise,” a mysterious new Hulu series set to premiere on Tuesday, Jan. 28, 2025, with three episodes, after which new episodes will premiere on the streaming service weekly. Watch the first official trailer for the drama above.

According to Hulu’s official synopsis, “Paradise” “is set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquility explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds.” At the center of that investigation is Xavier Collins (played by Emmy-winning “This Is Us” star Sterling K. Brown), who is enlisted to protect former president Cal Bradford (James Marsden), only to find him dead one morning. Will he find the killer? Is he the killer?

Sterling K. Brown and Dan Fogelman’s political drama series has landed at Hulu, the two’s first project together since “This Is Us.”

Emmy Award-winner Brown plays Xavier Collins, the head of security for a president. In the first trailer for the series, Xavier is being questioned by law enforcement as part of an investigation into the death of his high-profile client.

“Paradise” is set in a serene, wealthy community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But when a shocking murder occurs, the community is turned upside down.

James Marsden plays President Cal Bradford, the murder victim in question. Xavier was the last person to see him alive. One of the individuals interrogating Xavier even writes on her hand “Say yes” when she asks the head of security if he was partly happy the president was dead.

Oscar-nominated actor and Emmy-winning star Sterling K. Brown is reuniting with his “This Is Us” creator Dan Fogelman for a new thriller series.

Gone is the feel-good, family-friendly tone of ensemble drama “This Is Us”: Instead, Fogelman and Brown’s latest collaboration “Paradise” is pure murder mystery with a government conspiracy twist.

Brown plays a government agent who is questioned after the death of one of his neighbors. The official synopsis reads: “‘Paradise’ is set in a serene community inhabited by some of the world’s most prominent individuals. But this tranquility explodes when a shocking murder occurs and a high-stakes investigation unfolds.”
