Reboot is another upcoming new show on Hulu. Created by Steven Levitan, the comedy series is set to premiere on September 20.

This new show explores the idea of what might happen if a popular 2000's sitcom is rebooted today. The show focuses on the dysfunctional cast of an early 2000's classic family sitcom called Step Right Up, who need to deal with their unresolved issues and navigate social media cancel-culture when a young writer pitches a reboot of their show.

The fun premise is backed up by a terrific cast including Keegan Michael-Key, Judy Greer, Johnny Knoxville, and Calum Worthy. This is Levitan's first show since his major hit Modern Family, and it promises to be equally hilarious and insightful.


5) The Rookie: Feds

The Rookie: Feds is another new show on Hulu that is set to premiere on September 27. The show is a spinoff of The Rookie, a police procedural crime drama created by Alexi Hawley for ABC.

The show will center on Simone Clark (played by Niecy Nash), the FBI Academy's oldest rookie, who became an agent at the age of 48 after a long career in education.

The character was introduced in the fourth season of the original series when the FBI's Los Angeles division enlisted Simone's assistance when one of her former students was accused of terrorism.

The Rookie: Feds also stars Frankie Faison as Christopher “Cutty” Clark, and Felix Solis as Special Agent Matthew Garza.
