Amazon Prime Video’s Hazbin Hotel, Found and more new TV shows this week

We often come to you with these TV reports, focusing on the biggest premieres of the week – which we’re doing again now. But this week also features a slew of finales, all big shows that began in late 2023. While none of these three shows made our top 50 of the year, they’re all pretty big in their own way.

Noah Hawley’s Fargo wraps up its fifth season this week, closing another chapter exploring American greed and the violence it breeds. There are also Reacher, TV’s biggest guy, with what’s sure to be an action-packed Season 2 finale (and hopefully the start of the already green Season 3). And then there is Foundthe new, eye-catching storyline about a woman who tracks down missing people (and harbors a few dark secrets of her own).

There is more new And premiere Of course, to television – in addition to the current programs that you may be watching True Detective: Night Country — but it’s a good reminder that there’s plenty of TV worth catching up on, even without the urgency of the new episode.

Here are the best of these new finales and premieres to watch on TV this week.

First season finale found

Genre: Dramatic sequence
Release date: January 16th
Showrunner/Creator: Little Carroll
Pour: Shanola Hampton, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, Kelli Williams and more

Gabi (Shanola Hampton) has been looking for people all season long – and hiding the secret that her own kidnapper is in her basement. And it was a pretty wild ride with a lot of flair for the dramatic. So I am assume the season finale of Found will deliver one hell of a cliffhanger, especially since Season 2 has already been greenlit.
