Here Are Some Of The New And Exciting Shows Coming To Television In 2021

Published on 06/02/2021

2021 started around five months ago, and several shows we had been waiting for had been released. Some of the shows were new series, new seasons, or epic finales, and we could see that the fans had been anticipating these. The second season of Apple TV+’s Dickinson and the first wave of Disney’s numerous Marvel Universe series were included in 2021’s lineup, and everyone had been looking forward to these.

Superman And Lois

CW Arrow bestowed us with one of the original superheroes with his lady. Superman and Lois starred Tyler Hoechlin together with Elizabeth Tulloch as the title characters, and the television series would be filled with action, fighting against crime, and laser-eye pointing. In addition, we would see Superman face the most challenging task of being a parent. Arrow-verse’s fans would be thrilled to jump on this series, especially when it was renewed for another season.

Painting With John

Some people were fond of watching Bob Ross paint, so we would highly recommend Painting With John. It would be aired on HBO, and instead of acrylic paint, John Lurie’s medium was watercolor. The television series would feature the artist as he created paintings on his workstation. John Lurie would also share various watercolor techniques and other things he learned throughout his life. The series would be best for those who wanted to try watercolors.

Punky Brewster

Punky Brewster would be revived, and it would take its fans back in time. Soleil Moon Frye. The leading actress remained the title character, but instead of being an adventurous child, she had three kids. The series would feature how Punky survived adulthood, and everything changed when the family met a young girl from the foster care system. The girl was like how Punky used to be when she was the same age.

Euphoria, The Second Stand-Alone Episode

Euphoria’s second stand-alone episode would feature Jules instead of Rue, and it would emphasize Jules’ holiday season after breaking up with Rue. Euphoria was a critically acclaimed series beloved by the fans, and the actress Hunter Schafer would portray how her character felt during the significant events in her life. The episode would be the final special before the second season, and it would be something that the viewers would diligently look forward to.

Pretend It’s A City

Martin Scorsese, a famous director, created it, and the series would portray the reality of residing in New York City.

WandaVision

WandaVision was one of Disney+’s original series, and those unaware of the show should start watching it. The setting would be the events after Endgame, and the fans would appreciate returning to Avengers’ insane world. However, the fans would have no idea who and what to trust while watching WandaVision. WandaVision’s main character would be living the perfect suburban life similar to Bewitched, I Love Lucy, and Modern Family.

Search Party Season Four

Search Party Season Four was a long-awaited series on HBO Max featuring Dory and her friends. The fourth season would portray the cast as being funnier and would be aired this 2021. Dory somehow made it through the murder trial during season 3, and the protagonist thought things would go well. However, it was unfortunate that it was far from the truth as Dory had been kidnapped by someone hoping to be her best friend.

Dickinson Season 2

Dickinson Season 2 was Apple TV’s original series. It had an odd combination of a typical period piece and a millennial forcefully thrown in the middle of the world of Emily Dickinson. The first season featured Hailee Steinfeld on her way to be a famous poet, but the following season would focus on something else. Thankfully, the series would still include 19th-century jokes but would portray the main character differently.

The Lady And The Dale

The Lady and The Dale was a documentary series featuring Carmichael’s path to stardom, her extraordinary 20th-Century Motor Car Corporation, and The Dale – the car that made everything possible. Elizabeth Carmichael stunned everyone during the 70s because of the fuel-efficient vehicle she dubbed as The Dale. Everyone wanted to have an innovative piece of technology. The docu-series would attempt to bring to light the underlying scams Carmichael wished to keep hidden.

Gossip Girl

Gossip Girl would be a new series in HBO Max this 2021 and feature a new cast. It might seem to be the typical journey back to Manhattan’s Upper East Side, but it would no longer focus on Serena Blair’s drama with the private school friends. Gossip Girl would still have texting scandals, inside scoops, and stuff that could ruin the rich and famous students’ reputation. Be prepared as XOXO Gossip Girl would reveal everyone’s darkest secrets.

The Snoopy Show

Apple TV+ would release The Snoopy Show this 2021 because it was time for Snoopy to be the protagonist of a new show. The Snoopy Show would focus on the world’s most famous dogs’ adventures. We would also see several high-flying, fun-loving, and happy-dancing episodes together with Snoopy and the Peanuts gang. The Snoopy Show would be aired 70 years after the famous Peanuts’ comic strips were created.

The Falcon And The Winter Soldier

Disney+ released The Falcon and The Winter Soldier after a long time of not airing any new MCU content. The series would start after Captain America gave his shield to The Falcon, Sam Wilson. However, we would bet that it would not be as simple as that. The Falcon and The Winter Soldier would be split into a miniseries with six parts, and fans were faithfully waiting for the show since it would illustrate how dark and disturbing Marvel could be.

Genius: Aretha would be National Geographic’s third installment after Pablo Picasso and Albert Einstein, and it would focus on Aretha Franklin’s life. Genius: Aretha would feature the Queen of Soul’s music, real-life events, and it was indeed a biopic series we would not want to miss in 2021. Cynthia Erivo would act as the title character, and the audience would have high expectations from the Tony Award winner. Genius: Aretha would have eight episodes.

Hemingway would have three parts and would play for a total of six hours. Ken Burns, Lynn Novick, and Sarah Botstein would take a deeper look into Ernest Hemingway’s life and legacy.

Loki

Loki was one of the villains that the MCU fans could not get enough of. It was fortunate that Disney+ would release a series focusing on him this 2021. The story would pick up from the time Loki stole the Tesseract in Endgame and altered the timeline. The God of Mischief was taken care of by the Time Variance Authority. The story would be filled with mischief that only Loki could have come up with.

The Summer Olympics, Aka Toyko 2021

Everyone was disappointed when the 2020 Olympic Games was skipped last summer, but it was fortunate to resume this 2021. Athletes had been fully prepared for the Olympic Games and had an extra year to train for the biggest sporting event. NBC was chosen to air the event that usually took place every four (but now five) years. Tokyo 2021 was one of the events that we would be looking forward to this summer.

Foundation would be aired by Apple TV+ and an adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s sci-fi novel bearing the same title. It would focus on a group of rebels whose mission was to save the Galactic Empire from being destroyed. First, Lovin Malta interviewed the creator, to which he responded with, “now, with Foundation, we can hopefully [tell] the story over 80 episodes, or 80 hours, as opposed to trying to condense it down into a two or three-hour film.”

The Gilded Age

The Gilded Age was created by Downtown Abbey’s creator named Julian Fellowes and was also deemed a period drama series. Like the England-based show, The Gilded Age’s setting would be in New York City during the 1880s and would revolve around the lives of upper-class society. The Gilded Age would feature an outstanding cast, and the characters would be played by Carrie Coon, Christine Baranski, Cynthia Nixon, and Taissa Farmiga.
