The fresh content continues with more exciting new series joining the schedule mid-season starting with America's Culinary Cup, a new cooking competition series featuring the most decorated chefs in America and hosted and executive produced by Emmy ® Award-nominated food expert Padma Lakshmi. Then, Y: Marshals (working title) is a new drama joining Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone family of shows and stars Luke Grimes as Kayce Dutton. And finally, unscripted series, Harlan Coben's Final Twist, which features best-selling author Coben, with over 90 million books sold globally and multiple scripted series, as he steps into the true-crime television genre for the first time. Full series descriptions of Global's new mid-season series are available here. Also, bolstering Global's schedule mid-season is the return of hit series including Global Original Family Law, Watson and Hollywood Squares.
