Now that most of your favorite shows have come to an end, you're probably looking for something new to watch.
We've gone through the more than 70 new and returning reality shows and series coming to TV this summer.
From network television to the streaming services, here's what you should be checking out from now until August.
"Crossbones" (NBC)
Premiere date: Friday, May 30 at 10 p.m. ET
What it's about: A one-hour drama that follows the adventures of Blackbeard (John Malkovich) as he attempts to use a device — the world's first longitude chronometer — to dominate sea trade.
Why you should watch: The premise sounds a bit silly, but it's John Malkovich as a ruthless pirate so it's worth at least one watch.
We've been waiting for this show to air forever. Originally, set to debut midseason, the series comes from "Luther" creator Neil Cross.
"Extant" (CBS)
Premiere date: Wednesday, July 9 at 9 p.m. ET
What it's about: A female astronaut (Halle Berry) comes home from space after a 13-month solo mission to find out she's pregnant.
Why to watch: Berry pregnant with an alien child conjures images of Ridley Scott's 1979 masterpiece, "Alien."
The 13-episode series stars Berry in her return to TV — she appeared on "Knots Landing" in the '90s. Steven Spielberg serves as an executive producer on the show.
"Orange is the New Black" (Netflix)
Return date: Friday, June 6
What it's about: Now in season two, the series follows Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling) as she tries to survive a 15-month jail sentence in a women's correctional facility for aiding in the transportation of drug money.
Why to watch: Based on the The New York Times bestseller by Piper Kerman, the series takes a look at how prison can change a person. We watch as jail begins to take a toll on Piper emotionally while placing a strain on her relationships inside and outside the prison.
The Netflix original show has been nominated for one Golden Globe. Also, the streaming service releases all of the episodes at once so you can watch them whenever you want.
