This is a relatively quiet week with a couple of popular broadcast series retiring on their own terms: CBS’s ‘Criminal Minds” after 15 seasons and ABC’s “Fresh off the Boat” after six.

The most notable return is AMC’s “Better Call Saul,” back for a fifth season.

And Justin Bieber decided to return to his roots by doing a docuseries on YouTube, which is where he was effectively discovered.

“The Walking Dead” - remember that show? - is also back on AMC after a winter break.

The most notable new streaming show is "Hunters," a Jordan Peele-produced fictional account of Nazi Hunters in 1977 New York City who discover hundreds of escaped Nazis are living in America.
