Daveed Diggs and Jennifer Connelly take the lead when the series debuts in the spring of 2020.
Westworld / Season 3
Aaron Paul has joined the season three cast of Westworld but it doesn't look like he'll be visiting the Wild-West amusement park anytime soon. Instead, the hosts are coming to him and the rest of the real world. The series returns in 2020.
The Witcher
Andrzej Sapkowski's book series has already seen its share of adaptations, including the popular video game from CD Projekt Red. Now, Geralt of Rivia is making his way to Netflix. Based more on the novels than the RPG, the series will see Henry Cavill as the medieval monster slayer when season one premieres in late 2019.
Star Trek: Picard
Patrick Stewart returns as Jean-Luc Picard in CBS All Access' Star Trek reboot. The series picks up 18 years after the events of 2002's Star Trek: Nemesis and catches up with the Admiral at his family's vineyard in France. The 10-episodes are expected to premiere on the streaming service in early 2020.

Vollebak Blue Morpho Jacket
Inspired by the iridescent wings of the Blue Morpho butterfly, this new jacket from Vollebak has over two billion microscopic blue glass spheres embedded in resin on the jacket's surface. The glass spheres create an entirely reflective jacket that is constantly changing color while you ski or snowboard. The Blue Morpho is engineered for a max range of motion with plenty of room for a hoodie underneath. The jacket also is fully seam-sealed, waterproof, and includes an ocean-racing style marine hood and high collar. The visibly stunning piece of outerwear acts like a mirror for whatever light conditions you're in, with a liquid metal appearance under the sun that shifts to a bionic blue at night with any camera flash, torch, or searchlight.
Presented by Vollebak.
Oris Big Crown ProPilot x Calibre 115
Oris was founded in 1904 in the village of Hölstein which is surrounded by the Waldenburg Valley. The Calibre 115 draws inspiration from that location and continues the company's rich tradition of premium mechanical timepieces. The new timepiece features a fully skeletonized movement — including the barrel at 12 o'clock — so the watchmaker's talents are on full display. As you wind the crown, the mainspring coils until it's fully wound and ready to deliver ten days of uninterrupted power. It's housed within a 44mm brushed titanium case that employs a design passed down from a 1938 model and supplemented by a jet engine turbine blade motif introduced into the Big Crown ProPilot's bezel a few years ago. Additional details include Super-LumiNova filled hands and indices, double-sided anti-reflective domed sapphire glass, and a multi-piece titanium bracelet or a black leather strap.
Presented by Oris.

The series will premiere when the subscription video service launches this fall.
Hopper, P.I.
In season three of Stranger Things, Hopper proved why he's the chief of the Hawkins Police Department. He took down corrupt politicians, killed evil Russians, and destroyed dimension-opening machines — all while wearing a Hawaiian shirt and topsiders. To honor his Thomas Magnum-worthy skills, Eddie Spuhghetti created a fan-made intro to the only spin-off we need in our lives, Hopper, P.I..
Stranger Things' Starcourt Mall
In season three of Stranger Things, Hawkins becomes the home of the area's newest mall Starcourt. The ironic thing is, the actual building the series is shot in is a dying mall. Located in Duluth, Georgia, the Gwinnett Place Mall was originally built in 1984 and slowly over time, lost its luster. That is until production designer Chris Trujillo and his crew revamped the defunct shopping center with 40 store and beaming neons to become the backdrop for the show.
Dark Empire
Star Wars fan and animator Ian Wilkins is creating an animated series inspired by the Dark Empire comics. The story created by Tom Veitch and Cam Kennedy follows the events of the Return of the Jedi in a universe where Palpatine has evaded death and Luke Skywalker is dabbling in the Dark Side. Featuring music from Daniel Ciurlizza, we hope to see this project completed in the near future.

Stranger Things / Season 3
As if dealing with the side-effects of puberty isn't enough, the kids from Hawkins also have to face-off against one of the most insane-looking supernatural monsters to come out of the Upside Down. Looks like it's going to be one hell of a summer. Season three of Stranger Things beings July 4, 2019, on Netflix.
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee / Season 11
Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee is still going strong.

Gordon Ramsay: Uncharted
Like the late, great Anthony Bourdain and Andrew Zimmern, Gordon Ramsay enjoys stepping out of the kitchen and cook in the wild. This new series for National Geographic follows Ramsay as he climbs trees and mountains throughout six different locations around the world while locals school him on their native cuisine. The experience appears to have humbled the typically vicious chef, with him even stating "I've learned more in the last week than I've learned in 10 years." Uncharted premieres on July 21, 2019.
New Coke x Stranger Things
Stranger Things has been full of '80s nostalgia from the beginning but this season they're kicking it up a notch. The Netflix series is partnering with Coca Cola to bring back New Coke. The reformulation of the soft drink was released in 1985, the same year that the series will take place when it returns. Around 500,000 cans of New Coke will be available along with limited edition Stranger Things bottles.
Chernobyl v Reality
HBO's Chernobyl has been lauded for its hyper-accurate portrayal of the nuclear disaster that occurred in 1986. From the sets to the recreation of the rescue and demolition operations to capturing the essence of the Soviet Union, HBO and their crew did extensive research to bring the event to life. Thomas Flight brings the HBO series side-by-side with actual footage from the disaster to show just how accurate the production was and how it aids in telling the story of what happened.
Dark / Season 2
If you've never watched Dark do so now because the apocalypse must come. The underrated Netflix series first premiered in December of 2017 and is making its return this summer.

Dark continues streaming on June 21, 2019.
Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous
At this point, you'd think the idea of trying to keep dinosaurs in a zoo-type setting while humans visited would be considered a terrible idea — but this time, they're dropping a group of teenagers in the mix. Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous is a partnership between Dreamworks Animation and Netflix for an animated series of the world's most popular dinosaur franchise. The series comes to Netflix sometime in 2020.
For All Mankind
On July 20, 1969, the first human stepped foot on the moon — and it wasn't an American astronaut. For All Mankind asks what would have happened if Soviet Russia had been the first to the moon and the space race had never ended. Starring Joel Kinnaman and created by Ronald D. Moore, the original series comes this fall to Apple TV.

When They See Us
In 1989, five New York teenagers — Antron McCray, Kevin Richardson, Yusef Salaam, Raymond Santana and Korey Wise — were questioned and arrested for the rape and beating of a woman in Central Park. The case started a media firestorm, with calls to reinstate the death penalty in New York state and stoking racial animus among New Yorkers. In 2002, Matias Reyes, a convicted murderer and serial rapist in prison, confessed to the crime which was confirmed by DNA evidence. The five men spent between 6 and 13 years in prison. This is their story. When They See Us premieres May 31, 2019 on Netflix.

The show is expected to premiere on Showtime June 16, 2019.
The Long Night Finale Brightened
Season eight's episode three of Game of Thrones was its darkest yet. Not because of the death toll, but because we couldn't see a damn thing. The show's cinematographer blamed TVs and HBO but regardless of who's at fault, fans were not too pleased. To help right the wrong, Youtube channel Hivemind lightened the final moments of "The Long Night" and became the real hero of the Battle of Winterfell.
