INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE SEASON 3
AMC’s gothic drama continues its dark seductive tale with Season 3 focusing on Anne Rice’s book The Vampire Lestat.
So that means more Sam Reid for everyone!
Although we don’t yet have a premiere date for the third season (maybe October?), we do know the novel follows Lestat’s rise to fame as a 1980’s rockstar, his early experiences as a vampire, and his search for meaning and connection.
The season ahead will offer viewers a new perspective too by offering Lestat’s take on events hitherto written about by Daniel Molloy.
WEDNESDAY SEASON 2
Everyone’s favorite macabre teen detective is back on Netflix in July 2025.
With Tim Burton directing 4 episodes this year, the new season promises to double down on its trademark gothic charm.
Expect witty one-liners, eerie adventures, and even more gothica as Jenna Ortega reprises her breakout role as Wednesday Addams.
“Season 2 will be delightfully dark, kooky, and mysterious,” showrunners Gough and Millar revealed. “If we told you why, Wednesday would kill us. So our lips are sealed.”
YOU SEASON 5
Joe Goldberg’s chilling journey comes to a close in the final season of Netflix’s psychological thriller premiering in (maybe April) 2025, and seeing Joe finally make a return to New York.
But after evading justice for so long, and with his past finally catching up to him, will Joe finally face the consequences of his actions, or will he find a way to start fresh yet again?
YELLOWJACKETS SEASON 3
Showtime’s intense survival drama returns with more shocking twists in Season 3.
A two-episode season premiere drops Friday, February 14 on streaming and on demand for Paramount+ subscribers with the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan before its on-air debut on Sunday, February 16.
The series tells the story of a team of wildly talented high school girls soccer players who become the unlucky survivors of a plane crash deep in the remote northern wilderness. Chronicling their descent from a complicated but thriving team to savage clans, while also tracking the lives they’ve attempted to piece back together nearly 25 years later, the series proves that the past is never really past and what began out in the wilderness is far from over.
THE WHITE LOTUS SEASON 3
HBO’s darkly comedic anthology series takes us to a new luxurious resort—and new levels of dysfunction on February 16 on MAX.
With a fresh cast and intriguing new setting, creator Mike White promises another sharp exploration of wealth, privilege, and human folly.
Season 3 of the social satire finds the wealthy and disillusioned questioning their life choices in an exclusive Thai resort where the show follows the exploits of various guests and employees over the span of a week.
SUITS L.A. SEASON ONE
A brand-new chapter in the beloved Suits universe begins on NBC on February 23.
This spinoff starring Arrow’s Stephen Amell, ditches New York for the sunny landscapes of Los Angeles. New characters, high-stakes cases, and sharp dialogue are set to make this premiere a must-watch for fans of the original series.
But for those who might find the switch a little jarring, Suits OG Gabriel Macht, aka Harvey Specter himself, guests in the first three episodes to help ease former fans into the new series.
