February is a short but stacked month when it comes to TV premieres. Crucially, two fan-favorite shows return, as You comes back for season four on Netflix, while Starz revives the cult hit Party Down for a highly anticipated third season. Apple TV+ launched a tearjerker in Dear Edward, and follows it up with a travel docuseries, a Billy Crudup dramedy, and a French-English series. Not to be left behind, broadcast networks like ABC and FOX will roll out shows featuring fan favorites like Joel McHale, Gina Rodriguez, and Milo Ventimiglia. To help parse through everything worthwhile arriving on the small screen in coming weeks, here is The A.V. Club’s guide for what to watch in February.

I can’t wait to see Party Down return, and Hello Tomorrow intrigues, but none of the rest sound like my cup of tea. To be honest I’m struggling with tv in general these days, there are still shows I’ve loved (Better Call Saul, Mythic Quest) but the golden age of tv seems to be running on fumes a little, in 2017 and 2018 there were so many series I couldn’t wait to see, whereas now there are very few.
Magnicifent
Not Dead Yet looks like some lightweight fun (despite the death theme). We’re actually just finishing up Ghosts right now (the British one) and it looks like fun. Also: Jane and Cece!
