Premières: March 1, Fox This list has mostly been devoid of comedies thus far, and that's because, well, most of the decent comedies this year look to be the returning series (the final seasons of Parks And Recreation and the resurrected Community, specifically). Most new comedies are hard to judge until you've actually seen them, and a lot of what has been previewed so far has looked like a load of hot garbage. Be thankful, then, for The Last Man On Earth, the new Fox comedy has a concept as high as its prestige. Not only will it star (and was created and written) the brilliant Will Forte, fresh off of awards success for his turn in Nebrakas, but it's set to be directed by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller of LEGO Movie and 22 Jump Street fame. That's a staggering amount of talent, with January Jones and Kristen Schaal rounding out the cast and putting paid to the idea that Forte's Phil Miller (hmmm) in fact isn't the only human left in the year 2022, once the rest of humanity has been wiped out...somehow.
