There’s once again so much content coming along the way in 2022 that we’re splitting our TV preview into streaming and broadcast lists—here’s what’s coming to Apple TV+, HBO Max, Disney+, Peacock, Paramount+, Prime Video, and more this year.
Of course, going in, this isn’t a definitive list of everything that’s coming out this year—we’ll update it as and when we can with newly revealed shows—and of course, any and all premiere dates here are subject to change. But without further ado…

Raised By Wolves (Feb. 3) – Executive producer Ridley Scott’s sci-fi series about two androids raising human children amid religious turmoil on a far-flung planet after the destruction of Earth returns for a second season.
DMV (TBD) – Brian Wood and Riccardo Buchiellie’s dystopian Vertigo comic series gets the streaming treatment; Ava DuVernay is among its executive producers and directed the first episode (it’ll run four episodes total). Rosario Dawson stars as a medic searching for her son during America’s second Civil War, while Benjamin Bratt plays a gang leader angling to control the titular zone.

House of the Dragon (TBD) – Set centuries before the events of Game of Thrones, this prequel series—the first spin-off to make it out of development hell—aims to recapture the magic of HBO’s smash hit George R.R. Martin adaptation (season eight excepted) by introducing a new cast of scheming characters in Westeros.
Our Flag Means Death (TBD) – Can Taika Waititi do for pirates what he did for vampires? (Obviously, yes.) The Oscar winner directs the first episode and plays Blackbeard in this comedy which he’s also executive-producing; the story will mostly focus on “gentleman pirate” Stede Bonnet, played by Flight of the Conchords’ Rhys Darby.

Westworld (TBD) – While we were none too pleased with the season three finale, or really season three as a whole, we’re nostalgic enough for Westworld’s excellent first season and its mostly good second season to see where this AI-gone-wild tale will head next. Aaron Paul and Ed Harris are among the returning cast of maybe-robots.

Too bad, because there’s more sand on the way thanks to Ewan McGregor’s long-awaited Obi-Wan Kenobi—which should really be called “Ben Kenobi,” since it’s about the Jedi’s time on you-know-which planet watching over a certain young Skywalker.
