This Canadian science-fiction series, starring Jennette McCurdy, premiered in May 2015. It has a very appealing premise: in a peaceful Canadian town an unidentified disease kills everyone over twenty-one years old. The situation is even worse for Wiley Day, as she is with child. If you wish to see how things turn out for Wiley and the others, join in for the season 2, which premieres in May.
7. Grace and Frankie, Season 4

It has been a while since Jane Fonda appeared in a TV series (apart from her appearance on The Newsroom, several years ago). That is one of the reasons why you should see Grace and Frankie. The second reason is that her co-star is Lily Tomlin, which can amount to nothing but a huge success, since the two are a well-versed duo, reuniting after Nine to Five.
Yet another reason is a hilarious plot – two already estranged women find out that their husbands are in love with each other, so the ladies can only turn to one another for comfort. The season 4 will debut on May 6.
