Murderville (NEW series)

Murder mysteries are a TV cornerstone, but what happens when one cast member doesn’t have the script? Will Arnett has long been shopping around this format based on the BAFTA-winning BBC3 series Murder in Successville, and he finally found a taker in Netflix. Arnett plays a homicide detective who's joined by a different guest star each episode to help solve a new murder case. The impressive roster features Annie Murphy, Conan O’Brien, Ken Jeong, Kumail Nanjiani, Marshawn Lynch, and Sharon Stone. Yep, the Sharon Stone. Here's the hook: everyone has a script except the guest stars, and they are the ones who have to ultimately name the killer.

Sweet Magnolias, Season 2

The second season kicks off where the previous one left off as Maddie (JoAnna Garcia Swisher), Helen (Heather Headley), and Dana Sue (Brooke Elliott) find out who was in the car crash with Maddie’s son. The fallout from Prom Night continues and the town of Serenity, South Carolina is about to get rocked by more relationship drama and life-changing secrets coming to light. The three best friends have each other at least and margarita night is a must as they navigate new setbacks.

Love Is Blind, Season 2

The Emmy-nominated first season of the hit dating show debuted the month before lockdown and was one of the most-talked-about unscripted shows of that period thanks to its unique concept. The contestants get to know each other without distractions from the outside world, but it's the fact that a proposal occurs before they lay eyes on each other that adds an extra unconventional element to the mix. Nick and Vanessa Lachey are back to host the ten-episode second season. Can't get enough? Love Is Blind: Japan also debuts this month (February 8).

Inventing Anna (NEW series)

Three years ago, Anna Delvey became the face of the so-called “Summer of Scam,” and Jessica Pressler’s New York Magazine article “How Anna Delvey Tricked New York’s Party People" got to the heart of the matter. Now, Shondaland has adapted Pressler’s article as a limited series with Emmy-winner Julia Garner taking on the titular role, and Anna Chlumsky playing the journalist who's trying to get to the heart of this tangled web while Anna awaits trial.
