The third season of Industry is almost here. The HBO drama, which has quietly earned buzz and acclaim over the course of its first two seasons, is adding some big names for its third outing that could bring the show to an even wider audience. In the first trailer for the show’s third season, we get a look at some of the faces joining the cast, including Game of Thrones star Kit Harrington.

The trailer hints at a potential romance boiling between Harrington’s character, Sir Henry Muck, and Yasmin (Marisa Abela). As you might expect, the trailer also hints at plenty of chaos coming for the financial traders working at Pierpoint.

The official logline reads: “In season three, as Pierpoint looks to the future and takes a big bet on ethical investing, Yasmin (Marisa Abela), Robert (Harry Lawtey), and Eric (Ken Leung) find themselves front and center in the splashy IPO of Lumi, a green tech energy company led by Sir Henry Muck (Kit Harington), in a story that runs all the way to the very top of finance, media, and government. Since leaving Pierpoint, Harper (Myha’la) is eager to get back into the addictive thrill of finance and finds an unlikely partner in FutureDawn portfolio manager Petra Koenig (Sarah Goldberg).”

8 high-stakes shows like Squid Game you can’t miss
Death, drama, and game shows are quite a mix in these Squid Game-like series
The cast of season 3 of Squid Game.

Squid Game surely superseded any expectations the creators had when the South Korean drama series premiered in 2021. Now the most popular show in the history of Netflix, the series follows a group of desperate contestants who will sacrifice anything to win a massive cash prize in a long line of lethal games and activities. The concept seems more like something that would be on reality TV than scripted, but the creators more than make everything work. Squid Game is able to grapple with a lot of thought-provoking issues while never shying away from addicting devices and unique episodes that beg to keep viewers hooked to the screen all night long.

There's nothing exactly like Squid Game, or at least nothing that has equaled it in popularity. We've dove into the deepest parts of the TV landscape to find series that resemble the South Korean phenomenon in the way they create drama, the setting they take place in, or the genre elements they imitate. These are shows like Squid Game that you need to watch right away.

8 must-see shows like The Righteous Gemstones
This dark comedy is hard to copy, but we have some similar hits
Arden Myrin, Walton Goggins, and Valyn Hall

The Righteous Gemstones just launched its fourth and final season on HBO and Max, and fans are buzzing about the series' potential to have a historically great final run. With a score of 91 on Metacritic, analysts are rejoicing at the return of television's most famous current evangelical family. Starring and created by Danny McBride, this show is a tragically humorous look into the darkness of cults as the Gemstone family fights one another while trying to stay relevant as a religious entity. Other great actors include John Goodman, Walton Goggins, and Adam DeVine.

There aren't many shows on TV that have ever been quite like The Righteous Gemstones. The show understands the hypocrisies of organized religion while also playing into the family drama that's included in staying devoted to a deity. Over-the-top humor and a huge courage to not shy away from controversial humor make the series a completely unique story. Even if there's no perfect parallel, there are similar shows to indulge in between episodes. These are the best shows like The Righteous Gemstones you need to watch right away.

‘Tulsa King’ is coming back for a third season with another new showrunner
The series is one of the most successful shows in the history of Paramount+
Sylvester Stallone in Tulsa King

The executives at Paramount have been pretty open about how much Tulsa King has meant for the company's TV success, so it's perhaps no surprise that the show is set to return for a third season. The show is already filming its third season in Atlanta and Oklahoma, and The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Dave Erickson will take over as the show's sole showrunner for the third season.

Erickson is also serving as showrunner on Mayor of Kingstown, another Taylor Sheridan series, and recently signed a multiyear overall deal with MTV Entertainment Studios. Terence Winter and Craig Zisk, who essentially split showrunning duties on the second season, with Winter serving as the writer and Zisk as the producer, don't seem to be returning for the next season.
