27 Hottest New TV Shows Coming In 2015

24. The Comedians

Showing: TBA Not the popular British comedy entourage show of the 1970s and '80s, this is FX's odd couple comedy pitting Crystal's veteran funnyman opposite Gad's up and coming, edgier comic. The show, which is based on Swedish show Ulveson And Herngren, marks Crystal's return to TV forty years after he starred in Soap, and will fol The Selling Point: Anything that might reinvent and reinvigorate Billy Crystal is a great thing, and Josh Gad is hot stuff right now. The Concerns: It all very much depends on which version of Billy Crystal turns up, and whether he's particularly motivated.

23. Scream

Showing: October The latest addition to the film franchise might not have been the greatest addition to the horror genre (or even to the franchise itself), but there is still a lot of love for Wes Craven's self-referential slasher and the news that the show was upcoming was met with some excitement. The show will be light on star quality, which should hopefully mean that the concept is king, and the central story will focus on a YouTube video going viral and proving to be the catalyst to a reawakening of the town's dark past. The Selling Point: Audiences love TV horror at the minute, and the removal of the movie cast might mean it's less recycling and more reinventing. The Concerns: Scream 4 was garbage, and the fact that it's on MTV can't be filling too many people with confidence.
