Description: "A mysterious and otherworldly girl is wreaking havoc in Bristol Cove, a sleepy coastal town that legends say was once home to mermaids. Marine biologists Ben and Maddie must work together to find out who she is and what she wants. Could she be a mermaid, a primal hunter of the deep sea driven to land? And, if so, are there more out there?"

What critics said: "Siren has many of the hallmarks of a Freeform series — melodrama, attractive young stars, a trendy hook — but it's darker, bloodier and altogether more surprising." — USA Today (season 1)
4. "Kaguya-sama: Love is War" season 2 — Tokyo MX/Funimation, April 11
Description: "Known for being both brilliant and powerful, Miyuki Shirogane and Kaguya Shinomiya lead the illustrious Shuchiin Academy as near equals. And everyone thinks they'd make a great couple. Pride and arrogance are in ample supply, so the only logical move is to trick the other into instigating a date! Who will come out on top in this psychological war where the first move is the only one that matters?"

3. "My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU" season 3 — Tokyo Broadcasting System, April 10
Description: "When the loner Hachiman Hikigaya is coerced into joining the 'Services Club' run by the smart, attractive, and stuck up Yukino Yukinoshita, it's a recipe for disaster! But we haven't yet added the third caustic ingredient! Bright and cheery Yui Yuigahama needs the Service Club's help to bake cookies. It could be a recipe for romance. It could just as easily end in a nuclear meltdown! Get ready for romantic comedy gone totally wrong as the barrage À trois of the Service Club is unleashed!"

2. "After Life" season 3 — Netflix, April 24
Description: "Struggling to come to terms with his wife's death, a writer for a newspaper adopts a gruff new persona in an effort to push away those trying to help."
Rotten Tomatoes critic score: 72% (season 1)
What critics said: "After Life does come across as Gervais' most autobiographical work to date, but the writer, director, and star actually tells a sweet, earnest story about learning when and why to shut the hell up." — Indiewire
1. "Killing Eve" season 3 — BBC America/AMC, April 12
Description: "Killing Eve is the story of two women, bound by a mutual obsession and one brutal act: Eve, an MI6 operative, and Villanelle, the beautiful, psychopathic assassin that she has been tasked to find."
Rotten Tomatoes critic score: 93% (season 2)
What critics said: "The new episodes reverberate with a sense of humor that's absurd, bleak, and distinctly British." — The Atlantic (season 2)
