February is shaping up to be a busy TV month, with network shows like Abbott Elementary and Ghosts finally returning. There are plenty of action dramas to look forward to as well, including the Donald Glover– and Maya Erskine-led Mr. And Mrs. Smith and FX’s epic saga Shōgun. Plus, Netflix’s hyped live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender arrives, as does the final round of Curb Your Enthusiasm. And that’s just scratching the surface of what the month has to offer. Read on for The A.V. Club’s guide to what to watch in February.

Mr. And Mrs. Smith (Prime Video, February 2)

Mr. & Mrs. Smith Season 1 - Teaser Trailer | Prime Video

Phoebe Waller-Bridge may have quit this Prime Video project, but we must admit: The trailer for Mr. And Mrs. Smith looks promising, with ’s fantastic Maya Erskine taking on Waller-Bridge’s part opposite Donald Glover. In this updated spin on the 2005 Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie movie, Glover and Erskine play gun-toting spies in an arranged marriage. Let’s hope their comedic chemistry in the real thing is as good as it is in the teaser above. [Tim Lowery]
