No creator in television right now is on a hot streak quite like Bill Lawrence, who has become synonymous with “feel-good comedy.” Lawrence is in the midst of revitalizing his classic series Scrubswhile continuing his work on Ted Lasso,Shrinking, and Bad Monkeyfor Apple TV, proving that there is still room for traditional episodic sitcoms in an era where the format is often called on to be “elevated.” Lawrence’s storytelling style might not seem like the perfect fit for HBO, a network that has often tried to push its creators to achieve a level of ambition and quality on par with cinema. However, Lawrence’s latest show, Rooster,is the biggest original comedy show on HBO in over a decade. Although Rooster might seem like it has a straightforward premise, it's a well-written, genuinely emotional dramedy about second chances and new beginnings.

Since its premiere in 1993, TheX-Files has become a reference for incredibly done, nail-biting procedurals on TV. Starring David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson as the iconic FBI agents Mulder and Scully, the series won over viewers, became a TV staple, and even went on to inspire two feature-length movies and two season-long revivals. But while every iteration so far has seen Duchovny and Anderson step back into their characters' shoes as they work on more extraterrestrial cases, a reboot that's already underway is flipping the script – and that's not necessarily a bad thing.
