10. “Hacks” Season 4 (TBA)
Even before “Hacks” made a surprise victory over “The Bear” for Best Comedy Series at the Emmys, everyone was already eagerly waiting to see how the show would build on its incredible third season. After all, Ava (Hannah Einbinder) just pulled off a major power move by securing the head writer role for Deborah’s (Jean Smart) new late-night show. With such a game-changing shift in the story, fans were left wondering how the show would evolve and what new drama would unfold next.
The stakes are higher than ever as we watch Ava step into her new role, balancing the pressure of her career with her complex, often hilarious relationship with Deborah. After their rocky start, the dynamic between the two characters has grown deeper, and now, with Ava holding such a key position, it’s clear that the show is about to take us into new, uncharted territory. Whether it’s navigating the cutthroat world of late-night TV or dealing with personal dilemmas, “Hacks” is setting itself up for even more twists, laughs, and heartfelt moments.
11. “The Bear” Season 4 (TBA)
No matter how you feel about “The Bear’s” third season, there’s no denying that interest in Season 4 will be through the roof. After a polarizing third season—one that took a bold, experimental approach with its slow pacing and heavy focus on Fak (not to mention the surprising loss of Best Comedy Series to “Hacks”)—fans are curious to see where the show goes next. Will “The Bear” find its footing again after dividing viewers, or will it continue down its more unconventional path?
Some of Season 4 has already been filmed, and we can expect a similar structure to past seasons, with at least one or two episodes diving deep into a single character’s journey. There will also be some top-secret guest stars to keep everyone guessing.
One thing “The Bear” deserves serious credit for is its commitment to releasing new seasons annually since its 2022 debut, even with its cast members staying busy with other projects. It’s no easy feat to keep that momentum going, especially when the stakes are so high. Fans are eager to see how the show evolves, and whether it can bounce back stronger than ever.

As the stakes rise and the mysteries of the Upside Down finally come to a head, the final season promises to deliver the epic conclusion fans have been waiting for.
13. “Wednesday” Season 2 (TBA)
The second season of “Wednesday” is set to return next year, likely around the fall, just in time for spooky season. The first season was a massive hit, drawing millions of viewers with its dark, quirky take on the iconic “Addams Family” character. The show’s blend of mystery, gothic charm, and sharp wit quickly made it a cultural phenomenon. At the heart of it all was Jenna Ortega’s standout performance as the deadpan, sleuthing teen, which skyrocketed her to A-list status.
With her portrayal of Wednesday Addams, Ortega became one of Hollywood’s most exciting rising stars, earning widespread acclaim and a dedicated fanbase. Fans are eagerly awaiting her return, as the new season promises to dive deeper into “Wednesday’s” world, bringing even more intrigue, supernatural twists, and of course, her signature deadpan humor.
14. “The Four Seasons” (Netflix)
Inspired by the 1981 Alan Alda film of the same name, this new comedy centers around three couples who take a yearly vacation together. But when one couple decides to divorce, the group’s dynamic is thrown into chaos. The show is co-created by Tina Fey, who also stars in it alongside her “30 Rock” collaborators Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield. Joining Fey in the ensemble cast are some heavy hitters, including Steve Carell, Colman Domingo, Erika Henningson, Kerri Kenney-Silver, Will Forte, and Marco Calvani.
