Why you should watch: Like it or not, we have hit the TV spinoff of a film reboot era. Denis Villeneuve’s Dune films were massive hits but only covered a small section of Frank Herbert’s expansive Dune universe. This fall, HBO Max premieres a series dedicated to the Bene Gesserit, a powerful clan of female soothsayers that manipulate the forces of the imperium from behind the scenes. Starring Emily Watson, Mark Strong and Olivia Williams, the series traces the origins of the sect. A teaser trailer promises Villeneuve’s signature muted palette and grand scale.
