The Winter TV season is just about over and the Spring TV season is about to begin. With almost every show that disappears from our TV schedules as they wrap up their season or go into their mid-season break, a brand new show or new season of an already existing show will pop up to replace it. So many of them in fact, that it can be a bit daunting to go through everything to see what’s worth your precious time. So we did that for you! At least in the arena of scripted programming.

In this particular list we’ll be looking at the new seasons of existing TV shows that are about to arrive in our living rooms – or whatever room in the house you watch TV in with this era of smart devices. It’s a pretty short list, but we hope it’s a good one nonetheless!

For the TL; DR of this list, watch the video above.
