25 Most Hotly Anticipated New TV Shows Of 2019

15. Deadly Class

Deadly Class
Syfy

Who: Joe and Anthony Russo (producers); Benedict Wong, Lana Condor

What: A series based on the comic book of the same name, which follows students enrolled at King's Dominion Atelier of the Deadly Arts, a secret high school in San Francisco, where they train to become the next generation of top assassins for global crime families.

Why: Syfy have been making some genuinely excellent TV for a while now, and Deadly Class should fit well with the other kinds of things they've done well (The Magicians, The Expanse) but with the violence and insanity turned up to 11. It looks like a colourful, gory, and utterly bonkers comic book series, with a great premise and cast that should mean this one's a hell of a lot of fun.

Where & When: Syfy, January 16

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
