Spring is quickly slipping through our fingers, which means it's time to look forward to summer — or at least to summer TV. The coronavirus may have completely disrupted theatrical releases, but television continues to stream on schedule for the moment.

Here are the TV comedies we can't wait for in May and June.

Trying (May 1)

Nikki (Esther Smith) and Jason (Rafe Spall) just want to have a baby, but due to biological complications they learn they can't. They embark on the arduous journey of adopting to expand their family, but it won't be a quick or easy path.

Solar Opposites(May 8)

If you're not feeling a particular affinity for Earth at this time, imagine being an alien on this planet. In Solar Opposites, a family of four aliens seek refuge on our planet after escaping peril on their own, but they find there's as much to hate as to love. Capitalism takes some getting used to, but pizza is amazing, and their mixed views might tear this family apart before the even get to witness the Pupa as it consumes the entire planet. Rough!

Dead to Me(May 8)

Many TV shows would have you think that covering up a murder is easy, but the ladies of Dead To Meare about to learn otherwise. Jen (Christina Applegate) and Judy (Linda Cardellini) swore to be out of each other's lives, but that tiny little murder mishap with Steve (James Marsden) has their lives more tangled than ever. Now living under the same roof again and harboring a killer secret, all they want to do is survive long enough to share another slice of pie.

The Great (May 15)

This spin on the rise of Catherine the Great is more satire than drama, a break from most royal fare on television. Elle Fanning plays the eponymous leader who somehow achieves her ascent despite being surrounded by near-constant ineptitude — mostly from her husband, Peter (Nicholas Hoult). The series promises "only occasional historical facts" and plenty of laughs.
