Several new trailers have dropped for shows premiering this year, and we’ve rounded some of them up.
Without Game of Thrones to carry its flag this year, HBO is turning to several different shows in order to keep viewership high. One of the shows is an all-new comedy starring SNL alum Bill Hader as a jaded hitman for hire who finds new life in the wonderful world of acting.
