With WGA and SAG-AFTRA on the picket line, 2023 has been a complicated year for Hollywood. But the fountain of new TV has only slowed, not stopped.
Yes, even amid the Hollywood strikes, only one of which is over, hundreds of new and returning series have aired or streamed in 2023. And a few of them have even been pretty good.
The best shows so far include returning favorites (one is back after a very long time away), new thrills, new feuds, comfort TV and post-apocalyptic nightmares. They’ve made us laugh, cry and gasp, sometimes all at once. There are so many more adventures and romances coming our way on the small screen for the rest of 2023. We can’t wait.
