12. Forever (Amazon)

Amazon have arguably found more success with their original comedies than they have dramas so far, at least in a critical sense, and Forever should help continue that streak.

Starring the great SNL alums Maya Rudolph and Fred Armisen, the series follows married couple June and Oscar who, as per the description, "live a comfortable but predictable life in suburban Riverside, CA. For 12 years they’ve had the same conversations, eaten the same meals and taken pleasant vacations at the same rented lake house. But after June talks Oscar into shaking things up with a ski trip, the pair find themselves in completely unfamiliar territory."

With two talented stars, and a pair of excellent writers - and Parks and Recs veterans - behind the show in Alan Yang and Matt Hubbard, there's great potential for something sharply written and completely hilarious here.

Air Date: September 14
