Although April gave us some great new titles, it was also a merciless ruin full of our dearest geek shows. Luckily, April showers bring new seasons of Supergirl, The Flash, Sense8, Master of None and Riverdale.

For features, the underrated comedy Don’t Think Twice caught my eye and while it won’t be on the big screen Doctor Strange is an exciting addition. In another vein, I saw Hasan Minaj’s Homecoming King a few months back and strongly recommend everyone mark their calendars for his hilarious and heartwarming standup about his immigrant experience.

Fortunately, it looks like we’re gaining way more than we’re losing this month (sorry, Scrubs fans). We’re definitely going to give Bob’s Burgers Season 2 a watch over before it leaves though. Here’s the full list:
