television shows of 2020.

Arrow, Supernatural, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D, Glow,

Corporate, Homeland, The Good Place, Doc McStuffins.

Get ready to pour one out,

because they are all going away in the new year.

- Somebody royally forked up.

- But lucky for you there are plenty of replacements,

and we're going to rundown

our most anticipated shows of 2020.

First off, Snowpiercer.

One of the best comic book movies of this decade

is getting a TV show spinoff.

We love both the original French graphic novel,

"Le Transperceneige", and the 2013 Bong Joon-ho film.

So take our ticket as we hop on board the hype train

for this new television adaptation.

And while the small screen version

has gone off the rails a few times with delays,

it appears this time the show will be on time

when it leaves the station for its 2020 release.

This next show doesn't have a title yet,

but we know it's coming from Tina Fey

and it's basically the spiritual successor to 30 Rock.

Originally written for Alec Baldwin's character,

Jack Donaghy, the show has been retooled

to be about a wealthy businessman, played by Ted Danson,

who runs for mayor in Los Angeles and wins.

Sounds like a mix between The Good Place and 30 Rock,

which sounds like a win-win for us.

Our next pick is, wait, seriously,

another comic book adaptation?

This isn't gonna be a thing, is it?

- [BComp] It is.

- It is?

- [BComp] It is.

- Okay, anyway, it's Y: The Last Man on FX.

Why this show, you may ask?

Because it's based on the excellent comic series

where a man and his monkeys survive a global event

that wipes out all other males.

The real question is why the hell

did it take so long to make?

Jordan Peele is going to have a big year on television

in 2020, with two new upcoming series he's producing

that have both made it to this list.

The first is Hunters, the Amazon Prime series

about a diverse group of people hunting Nazis

in New York City in the 1970s.

If that's not enough to sell you on it,

then the fact that they're led by Al Pacino

should seal the deal.

The other show on the list is Lovecraft Country.

This HBO series is an adaptation

of Matt Ruff's excellent novel of the same name

about the horrors, both supernatural and racial,

in Jim Crow America.

With Jordan Peele's recent track record

with "Us" and "Get Out",

we can't wait for him to tackle some cosmic horror.

From horror adaptations on HBO,

to HBO adaptations of horror,

our next pick is The Outsider.

Based on the Stephen King novel,

this murder mystery with a supernatural edge

has got the recipe for success,

Ben Mendelsohn and Jason Bateman,

a True Detective-style mystery,

wrapped up as a Stephen King HBO show.

Works for us.

Did you know we have a thing for The Office around here?

- No!

- No, seriously, we love it.

And that is why we are super stoked about the upcoming

Steve Carell show, Space Force.

Now there's little known about the show so far,

outside of it coming to Netflix in 2020,

and it's from Greg Daniels,

the creator of the American version of The Office.

So, yeah, of course we are strapping in for this show.

In the same vein, Avenue 5, the other space comedy

starring Hugh Laurie, the trailer for that makes it feel

like the perfect successor to Veep,

especially considering they share a creator.

We may not yet understand why it's called Avenue 5,

but we think it'll be out of this world.

Our next pick is from the Marvel Cinematic Universe,

The Falcon and Bucky Show on Disney+.

We can't wait to see some of that MCU magic

on the small screen,

especially considering the duo's on-screen chemistry

in "Captain America: Civil War."

- Can you move your seat up?

- No.

- If you thought we were out of comic book TV adaptations

to be hyped about in 2020,

guess again, because that would mean you forgot

all about "Locke & Key", coming to Netflix in February.

The powers that be have tried to make a show

based on the Joe Hill comic for what feels like 100 years,

so we are glad to see someone

finally unlocked the formula for success.

All the rest of our picks

might have been in no particular order,

but we do have to say that this final one

is definitely our most anticipated.

Picard.

BComp still openly weeps when someone mentions

that we are about to see more adventures of Jean-Luc.

- [BComp] That's not a lie.

- Yeah, we sorely missed our space-faring family,

and based on the terrible sendoff they got

with "Star Trek: Nemesis,"

we're glad we're getting one more chance

to do right by them.

- Engage.

- And that's the list of Nerdist's most anticipated

brand-spanking new television series of 2020.

And look, we might have missed

a few good picks here and there,

but hey, we don't have 2020 vision.

Come on, we only had a couple more days

to make that joke this year.

Please forgive us, please?

Oh, I'm sorry.

But what do you folks think?

What's your most anticipated new show of 2020?

What returning show are you most excited for?

And how many of you still openly weep

when you realize 2020 is the year of "Picard"?

BComp?

- [BComp] That's right, I do.

- Let's discuss.

Thanks for watching.
