MUST-WATCH TITLES FOR FEBRUARY February 9 – SHOWTIME’s HOMELAND *Season 8 Premiere* (9 p.m. ET)  
  • The eighth and final season of HOMELAND finds Carrie Mathison (Claire Danes) recovering from months of brutal confinement in a Russian gulag. Her body is healing, but her memory remains fractured – which is a problem for Saul (Mandy Patinkin), now National Security Advisor to the newly ascendant President Warner (Emmy® and Golden Globe® winner Beau Bridges). The top priority of Warner’s young administration is an end to the “forever war” in Afghanistan, and Saul has been dispatched to engage the Taliban in peace negotiations. For the first time ever, all-new episodes of HOMELAND premiere only on Crave, day-and-date with SHOWTIME in the U.S.
  February 9 – SHOWTIME’s KIDDING *Season 2 Premiere* (10 p.m. ET)
  • Jim Carrey returns in his Golden Globe® nominated performance as the iconic children’s television host, Jeff Pickles. This season picks up moments after season one’s cliffhanger, and with Mr. Pickles’ Puppet Time off the air for the first time in 30 years, Jeff Pickles must find a way to communicate with his many fans who still need him. Jeff creates a new and controversial method to talk directly to children across the world only to become the target of animosity for the first time in his career. As Jeff navigates the most complicated moral gray areas of his life, he discovers a new side of himself in a season full of music, magic, puppets, and pathos.

  February 3 – HBO’s MCMILLION$ *Documentary Series Premiere* (10 p.m. ET)
  • This documentary series chronicles the stranger-than-fiction story of an ex-cop turned security auditor who rigged the McDonald’s Monopoly game promotion for a decade, stealing millions of dollars and building a vast network of co-conspirators across the U.S. The series draws on exclusive firsthand accounts and archival footage, featuring: the FBI agents who brought down the gaming scam; McDonald’s corporate executives, who were themselves defrauded; the lawyers who tried the case; and the culprits and prizewinners who profited from the complicated scheme, as well as the individuals who were often unwittingly duped into being a part of the ruse.
  February 16 – STARZ’s THE SPANISH PRINCESS, *Series Premiere*
  • THE SPANISH PRINCESS is the follow-up to the STARZ Original Miniseries THE WHITE QUEEN and THE WHITE PRINCESS. THE SPANISH PRINCESS continues the story of Queen Catherine and Henry VIII.

  February 3 – DAVID CROSBY: REMEMBER MY NAME *Documentary Premiere*
  • A triumph at Sundance, this inspired collaboration between director A.J. Eaton and producer Cameron Crowe coaxes Crosby, member of three major groups in music history (The Byrds; Crosby, Stills & Nash; and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young), into unflinching candor as the singer-songwriter confronts mortality and assesses the damage of earlier days. At the same time, his redemptive journey back to music is universally inspiring and uplifting, bearing an emotional impact that transcends the rock documentary genre.
February 7 – HBO’s HIGH MAINTENANCE *Season 4 Premiere* (11 p.m. ET)
  • HIGH MAINTENANCE continues to paint a unique and loving portrait of New York City, exploring the often-messy interpersonal moments of everyday people who are looking for meaning, companionship and a little high to make it through the day. This season finds The Guy (Ben Sinclair) back traversing the city on his bicycle, having said goodbye to last season’s RV. With a new friend by his side, The Guy drops in on a variety of customers whose disparate lives, jobs, identities and circumstances reveal the human connection that we all seek. Playing out over the course of a year, this season focuses on cycles of renewal, webs of human connections, and putting down roots in the ever-changing ecosystem of New York City.
  February 9 – STARZ’s WRONG MAN, Season 2, *Season Premiere*
  • The groundbreaking, six-episode documentary series from Oscar®-nominated and Emmy Award®-winning filmmaker Joe Berlinger (PARADISE LOST, CONVERSATIONS WITH A KILLER: THE TED BUNDY TAPES) examines the cases of three different inmates who are serving life sentences on murder convictions, but who claim innocence. In the second season, the series will continue to uncover new theories and reveal startling new evidence that could prove that three new inmates are, in fact, not guilty. Two of the three murder cases will feature women inmates, Vonda Smith, Patricia Rorrer, and Kenneth Clair. WRONG MAN premieres February 9, only on Crave
February 14 – CINEMAX’s STRIKE BACK *Season 7 Premiere* (10 p.m. ET)
