There's no rest for the TV viewers, as the 2025 TV slate gets rolling right away with some big time premieres and will continue with massive show and massive show all year across streaming and linear TV. We wouldn't have it any other way.

With all of these exciting shows coming to air, some of our What to Watch team members got together to pick the 15 TV shows they are most excited for this year. From genre favorites to star-studded thrillers to a continuation of a show that found new life on streaming. We've listed the shows in order of when they premiere (and if they don't have a release date at this time they're listed alphabetically).

So, no need to drag this out any longer. Here are the TV shows that we are most looking forward to watching in 2025.

The last time we saw Rowan Mayfair (Alexandra Daddario), she’d just given birth to Lasher, giving the powerful and mysterious entity a corporeal body. Now, in Mayfair Witches season 2, Lasher’s plans become known. We’ve been excited for the show to return for a number of reasons; now that the groundwork has been laid, it’s time for the Mayfairs to come together to fight Lasher (Jach Huston), but not everyone believes he should be destroyed given how much power and influence he’s given the family. This complex and visually stunning series has a lot to offer as Anne Rice’s witches really start to come out and play. — Sarabeth Pollock
