The Best New TV Shows Of 2023 That Are Flying Under Your Radar

Author Taffy Brodesser-Akner’s drama miniseries, “Fleishman is in Trouble” – based on her novel of the same name — is probably the most likely show on this list that might’ve popped up on the radar of viewers. Its star-studded cast features such acclaimed actors as Jesse Eisenberg, Claire Danes, Lizzy Caplan, Adam Brody, and Josh Radnor. It’s no wonder why: as quirky and odd as it might be, the series delivers an outstandingly original depiction of culture, divorce, wealth, nostalgia, friendships, mental health, and parenting with beautiful poignancy and humor.

“Fleishman is in Trouble” follows Toby Fleishman (Eisenberg), a freshly divorced Jewish doctor with two kids, who tries to balance his career and personal life in Manhattan. As he pursues new romantic relationships, Toby soon realizes that his ex-wife, Rachel (Danes), seemingly disappeared without a trace. At first, he thinks she’s just messing with him, but later on, he starts to worry that something bad happened to her that no one knows about. So to track her down, Toby attempts to find her using his relationships while balancing his demanding job, raising children, navigating the online dating scene, and reconnecting with long-lost friends from his youth. Brodesser-Akner’s miniseries is truly “about everything,” which is a grueling task for an eight-part TV show, but it somehow manages to find a satisfying narrative stability that delivers on all counts.
