　　DI Humphrey Goodman and his team are back solving increasingly puzzling murders on the beautiful island of Saint Marie - from a body on a volcano to a two-part story which takes the team to London. But it’s not just the crime which is troubling Humphrey - as his relationship with Martha blossoms, will the course of true love run smoothly? Meanwhile the team are concerned for Sergeant Florence Cassell when an old friend is found dead. Dwayne is forced to confront his past, JP turns to Dwayne for marriage guidance and Selwyn’s intervention in a case puts Catherine at the centre of the mayoral elections. The sixth series of the hugely popular show delivers its usual recipe of fun, emotion and intrigue - with a few surprises too - all served up in the glorious Caribbean sunshine.

　　In 2262, Earthforce Captain Elizabeth Lochley is appointed to command Babylon 5. The station grows in its role as a sanctuary for rogue telepaths running from the Psi Corps, resulting in conflict. G'Kar, former Narn ambassador to Babylon 5, becomes unwillingly a spiritual icon after a book is published that he wrote while incarcerated during the Narn-Centauri War. The Drakh, former allies of the Shadows who remained in the galaxy, take control of Regent Virini on Centauri Prime through a parasitic creature called a Keeper, then incite a war between the Centauri and the Interstellar Alliance, in order to isolate the Centauri from the Alliance and gain a malleable homeworld for themselves.
　　Centauri Prime is devastated by Narn and Drazi warships and Londo Mollari becomes emperor, accepting a Drakh Keeper under threat of the complete nuclear destruction of the planet. (Portions of the end of his reign are seen in various prescient visions throughout the series; they show Mollari and former nemesis (and later friend) G'Kar sixteen years in the future dying at each other's throats, seemingly out of their grudge. It is gradually revealed that there was a much more friendly subtext, with Mollari having become a slave to the drakh rule and being tired of life; his Drakh Keeper awakens and strangles G'Kar in return. Vir Cotto, Mollari's loyal and more moral aide, succeeds him as emperor, free of Drakh influence. Sheridan and Delenn marry and move to Minbar, along with the headquarters of the Interstellar Alliance. G'Kar leaves Babylon 5 to escape his unwanted fame and explore the rim. Garibaldi also marries and settles down on Mars. Most of the other main characters leave B5.
　　Nineteen years later on the verge of death, Sheridan takes a final trip to the obsolete Babylon 5 station before its decommissioning. Sheridan apparently dies but is claimed by the First Ones, who invite him to join them on a journey beyond the rim of the galaxy. Babylon 5 station is destroyed in a demolition shortly after Sheridan's departure, its existence no longer necessary as the Alliance has taken over its diplomatic purposes. This final episode features a cameo by Straczynski as the technician who switches off the lights before Babylon 5 is demolished.

　　《喜新不厌旧 Black-Ish》的衍生剧《成长不容易 grown-ish》在美国时间1月3日首播，才播了四集就获电视台Freeform续订20集的第二季。该剧获得不错的评价及收视（最新集收视0.4），获续订并不意外。
　　《成长不容易》讲述Zoey（Yara Shahidi饰）在离开家人来到大学后，很快发现这里的生活不能事事如意。母剧演员Deon Cole在衍生剧继续饰演Charlie，他在大学兼职当市场学教授。

　　NBC的DC喜剧《无能为力 Powerless》由Ben Queen开发，这部剧被形容为类似《办公室 The Office (US)》，但会加入DC的角色。原本该剧背景为一个在全美工作环境最恶劣的保险公司RetCon，因为他们身处的的是DC漫画宇宙，所以他们负责的是英雄及反派决战过后的烂摊子。
　　不过近日该剧宣布修改一点设定，把主角的公司改为Bruce Wayne的Wayne Enterprises子公司 - Wayne Security，该公司开发产品以保护平凡大众，以免成为英雄及反派对决时的「附带损害」。
　　在《油脂 Grease Live》演出的Vanessa Hudgens饰演Emily Locke，她刚于Wayne Security的研究开发部成为新任主管。充满信心﹑点子的她，发现她的期望远超过老板及同事，理解到不必有超能力才能当英雄的她，决定领导团体发挥出最大潜力。
　　Danny Pudi扮演Teddy，是Emily值得信赖的知心伙伴，他喜欢弄点恶作剧，目的是为了让这个超平凡的办公室，多一点不平凡。Christina Kirk扮演Jackie，沉迷超级英雄，而且还在自己办公位置贴满肌肉发达型的英雄照，由于新来的上司超多无理要求，让她陷入新的工作生活形态。
　　Ron Funches饰演在I.T.部门﹑天真无邪的Ron，他不像其他同事，仍然充满对超级英雄有孩子般的热情；Alan Tudyk扮演上司Del，没什么特长，自称为到处游学镀金的壕废柴。性格扭曲，超迷恋灾难的独裁上司。

　　凯瑟琳·海格尔(《实习医生格蕾》《国事家事》)加盟《金装律师》第8季，担任常驻演员，与加布里埃尔·马赫特上演对手戏。此前该剧已宣布准王妃梅根·马克尔和小麦帕特里克·J·亚当斯都不会回归。海格尔将饰演Samantha Wheeler，是Pearson Specter Litt律师事务所的新合伙人，她才华横溢，将挑战现状，要么成为该公司最大的盟友，要么成为最强大的敌人。
　　剧情的基调也会发生改变，此前主要聚焦马赫特饰演的Harvey Specter和亚当斯饰演的Mike Ross之间的男性关系，现在将用其他元素替代。原卡司莎拉·拉弗提、里克·霍夫曼等回归，最新一季加入成为常规主演的杜勒·希尔也会回归。第8季将于4月多伦多开拍，预计年末播出。
