Mickey Haller (Manuel García-Rulfo) is back on Netflix and poised to face his toughest case yet in David E. Kelley's continuing adaptation of Michael Connelly's bestselling book series.
Season 4 is based on the sixth book in the saga, "The Law of Innocence," and sees Haller and his team working tirelessly to prove his innocence in the murder of a former client, Sam Scales. As his life and reputation are on the line, Haller and co. scramble to uncover Sam's final scam, forcing the team to go head-to-head with the DA's office, the FBI, and ghosts from Mickey's own past.

'The 'Burbs'
Peacock's "The 'Burbs" is a new mystery/comedy series you can look forward to binge-watching at the end of the week. Inspired by the 1989 horror-comedy film of the same name, Celeste Hughey's new series revolves around a young couple (played by Keke Palmer and Jack Whitehall) who move into the husband's childhood home in a picture-perfect neighborhood.
Things might look great on the surface, but their world is upended when new neighbors move in next door, bringing old secrets of the cul-de-sac to light, and new, deadly threats shatter the illusion of this quiet little neighborhood...
All eight episodes of "The 'Burbs" premiere on Sunday, Feb. 8, on Peacock
