Telly that bridges the Pond
By my count, 215 new programs and program seasons from the UK, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada premiered stateside in 2016. Of them, here are my picks for the best 20 that were brand-spanking-new to the US.
Whether the weather outside is frightful or fantastic, chillax in front of your favorite telly screen with some terrific British TV this month, including the premieres of new and returning series and holiday specials.
Happy New Year! It’s the 1st of January, which means Sherlock: The Abominable Bride! And there’s much more British TV screening in the US during the rest of the month, too!
The new year will be here before we know it, and with 2016 comes the US premiere of War & Peace, the limited series event that will air on cable channels A&E, History, and Lifetime.
The BBC has released the first-look images of BBC One’s epic new event drama War And Peace, featuring Paul Dano, Lily James, and James Norton, and they look amazing.
A+E Networks has announced that its Lifetime, History, and A&E channels are partnering with The Weinstein Company and the BBC on the limited series event, War and Peace.
In Part 2 of this series, we look at shows expected to debut on BBC channels in 2015. Will they also screen in the US during this or a later year? Only time will tell. (Page 3 of 3)
