Every Upcoming Netflix Original Series Of 2017 - Ranked By Anticipation

15. Dear White People - Season 1

Netflix 2017
Lionsgate

A TV adaptation of the 2014 film of the same name, chronicling the lives of Ivy League college students as they attempt to make their way through amid racial tensions.

Writer/director Justin Simien is returning for it, as is star Brandon P. Bell - although most of the cast is new. The movie was an indie darling, and with the same voice behind it the show should work similarly well as a razor-sharp satire.
