SNOWFALL — “Pilot” — Season 1, Episode 1 CR: Mark Davis/FX

Snowfall is a new crime drama that will be taking a look back to Los Angeles in the 1980s during the early days of the crack cocaine epidemic. This time period and subject matter had a huge cultural impact that is still seen today in the three areas that are being highlighted in this show. Some might find it nostalgic, while others will be drawn in by the main characters and their inevitable collision course.

Salvation hasn’t been forthcoming on a lot about the first season, other than it’s about a MIT graduate and a young tech mogul who somehow figure out that in six months, an asteroid is going to collide with Earth. The show itself is being described as a fast-paced drama, but can a show with an impending timeline make it past one season?

16. Suits (USA, July 12 9/8c)

Suits will be back for Season 7 and with the dynamic duo working together again — who knows how this season will end? The producers have not been forthcoming with details on the seventh season, but with the 100th episode milestone for the series happening this summer, the audience should be ready to hold on tight for what will probably be a crazy time.

Friends From College follows a group of college friends who are reunited, living in the same city, and facing down their forties. With intertwining and complicated relationships with each of the characters, this show will be a comedic exploration of old friendships, former romantic entanglements, all while balancing adult life with nostalgia for the past.

A lot happened in the finale of Game of Thrones, and though details are a little fuzzy about the timeline for the Season 7 premiere, we are expecting a lot more dragons and backstabbing.

While Daenerys and Cersei battle it out for the title of Queen of Westeros, the Starks have bigger things to worry about as they defend the realm from White Walkers.
