12. Vice Principals

HBO

Set at a high school, Vice Principals will - unsurprisingly - tell the story of those people who almost run the school, the Vice Principals.

It's been created by Danny McBride and Jody Hill, the same pair who gave HBO the comedy Eastbound and Down, which received a lot of critical acclaim. So that's good news.

McBride will play the Vice Principal of Discipline, while he'll be joined by Walton Goggins' (recently seen giving a great performance in Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight) Vice Principal of Curriculum. The cast is rounded out by the likes of Busy Philipps and Shea Whigham, and has an 18-episode order.
