THE SKED: Showtime Premiere Dates

 

It’s Showtime’s turn at TCA, so along with announcing some series pick-ups (Happyish with Philips Seymour Hoffman, and the probably self-explanatory The Affair), some premiere dates were unveiled.

On Sunday, April 13, NURSE JACKIE and CALIFORNICATION make their returns (this will be the final season of the latter) in the 9PM hour, followed by the 4-part documentary series YEARS OF LIVING DANGEROUSLY, about climate change.  On May 11, the new historical thriller PENNY DREADFUL, which features a fully-stocked pantry of monsters (Dracula, Frankenstein, Dorian Gray),takes over the 10PM hour.
