THERE ARE CERTAIN shows on HBO that just know how to get people talking. Whether that’s the high-fantasy fun of something in the Game of Thrones world, a murder mystery like Mare of Easttown, or a salacious, juicy season of The White Lotus, the prestige cable giant just knows the secret formula to getting the conversations in group chats and around the office water cooler all revved up.
That’s nothing new—we’re talking, after all, about the network responsible for the likes of The Sopranos and Sex and the City all those years ago. The latest entry in that historic lineage has arrived in the form of DTF St. Louis, a series starring Jason Bateman, David Harbour, and Linda Cardellini that manages to blend dark comedy, mid-life malaise drama, and mystery all in one.
Sound good? The show follows Clark (Bateman), a television weatherman and local quasi-celebrity, whose life changes forever when he strikes up a friendship with Floyd (Harbour), a jovial ASL interpreter who saves his life during an on-air forecast. Things get decidedly more complicated when Floyd’s wife, Carol (Cardellini) enters the picture, and a love triangle forms. If you think you know how that kind of story tends to play out… think again. DTF St. Louis is the kind of show that every time you think it’s going to zig, it zags, and then zigs again, and then zags two more times. And then maybe zigs once more for good measure.
It’s the kind of show that you’re going to be want to be up on. Not only is it very funny, but there’s also a mystery angle (anchored by law enforcement agents played by the great Richard Jenkins and Wednesday star Joy Sunday) that’ll have you theorizing what we haven’t learned yet week in and week out. Between the investigative neo-noir angle, some of the humor and earnest knowledge that comes from exploring Clark and Floyd’s honest friendship, and any of the show’s many questions and musings about mid-life malaise, this is without question one of the year’s best new shows, and one that makes each minute count.
Below, we’ve got all the information to make sure you know exactly when you’ll be able to see each episode of DTF St. Louis—because we know you’re not going to want to miss one.
