Love the Harry Potter stories, but wish they had less hocus pocus and more heavy drama? This adaptation of Potter scribe J.K.

Billy Crystal stars as an aging comedian who's paired with a younger, edgier comic (Josh Gad) to launch a new late-night talk show. We foresee some conflict, as Gad's character refuses to get off Crystal's character's lawn. And Curb Your Enthusiasm's Larry Charles is writing and directing, so the show is already sounding good.

However, whenever she chows down on a new serving of head jelly, she acquires the memories contained within — and then she uses that info to help solve mysteries. As you do. To put this another way: iZombie is what would happen if Veronica Mars became a zombie, right down to the jaded cynicism and sarcastic voiceovers. Robert Buckley, David Anders, Malcolm Goodwin, and Rahul Kohli also star.

This six-part miniseries based on Hilary Mantel's Booker Prize-winning novel Wolf Hall and its sequel Bring Up the Bodies follows the rise of Thomas Cromwell in the court of King Henry VIII. Yeah, it sounds stuffy, but PBS is keeping it real with an "unromanticized" take on the historical drama that's aimed at the "modern audience." Tony winner Mark Rylance stars as Cromwell and Homeland's Damian Lewis plays King Henry VIII.

Tony Award winner and former Bunheads star Sutton Foster headlines this new series from Sex and the City's Darren Star. The actress plays Liza, a 40-year-old newly single mother to Hilary Duff's Kelsey, who gets a makeover from her best friend (Debi Mazar) in order to pass herself off as a 26-year-old so she can get back into the working world. And for real-life reference, Foster turns 40 on March 18, but doesn't look a day over 26 (Duff, for the record, is 27), so we're honestly curious to see what this "makeover" entails.
