BBC America used last weekend’s virtual New York Comic Con to debut its first look at The Watch. The series, based on the Terry Pratchett’s City Watch subset of his Discworld novels is set to launch in the US in January 2021.
The full synopsis for the series reads, “The comedic yet thrilling series pits trolls, werewolves, wizards and other improbable heroes against an evil plot to resurrect a great dragon which would lead to the destruction of life as they know it.”
