Who: Patty Jenkins (creator); Chris Pine, India Eisley

What: Fauna Hodel, a young girl who was given up by her birth mother, sets out to uncover the secrets of her past and ends up following a sinister trail that swirls closer to a gynaecologist involved in the legendary Black Dahlia slaying

Why: Patty Jenkins and Chris Pine teaming-up again between Wonder Woman and Wonder Woman 1984 is reason enough to tune in here, more so for their talent than their names. Jenkins is a great director who can deftly handle grittier material, and it gives Pine a chance to showcase more of his dramatic chops alongside his obvious charisma. The early buzz has been solid, and it sounds like it should be an engrossing mystery to help kick-start 2019.

Where & When: TNT, January 28.
