February will be a big month for TV with brand new shows premiering and well-loved shows making their return. This month, it will certainly be okay to be a dedicated couch potato as a slew of great shows are coming. 

For "Breaking Bad" fanatics, the best part of February is the debut of their favorite series' spinoff. On Feb. 8, "Better Call Saul" is coming to AMC in a special 10 p.m. timeslot. On Feb. 9, the pilot episode will again be aired at the same hour. Viewers will see Walter White and Jesse Pinkman's trusty lawyer, Saul Goodman, once more although his problem-stricken buddies are not showing up in the series. "Better Call Saul" traces back to the beginning, when Saul still calls himself Jimmy McGill. 

On the first day of February, viewers will be treated to the return of "The Blacklist" to NBC and the crime drama television series airs right after the Super Bowl on Sunday. Come Feb. 3, viewers can tune in to ABC to follow the goings-on in the life of immortal medical examiner Dr. Henry Morgan at 10 p.m. EST. But they can also jumpstart the month with the second season of "Being Mary Jane," which airs on NBC the same time as "Forever." 

ABC's new sitcom titled "Fresh Off the Boat" will premiere on Feb. 4 at 8:30 p.m. EST. A second episode will air at 9:30 p.m. on the same day. "Nashville" is on its third season and the musical drama show is set to return right after "Fresh Off the Boat" at 10 p.m. The next day, Raymond "Red" Reddington and his schemes will carry on as "The Blacklist" makes its way to television screens once more. A brand new episode will air on its new 9 p.m. timeslot on NBC. At 10 p.m., the network will premiere its new spy drama titled "Allegiance," which stars Kenneth Choi and Scott Cohen, among others. 

Feb. 8 will be a big night for fans. HBO docuseries "The Jinx: The Life & Deaths of Robert Durst" is taking off at 8 p.m. Then, the much-awaited midseason premiere of "The Walking Dead" on AMC will finally happen as the clock strikes 9. The zombie-thriller series' aftershow will then air by 11:15 p.m. But before that, viewers can head to HBO for the beginning of the second season of "Last Week Tonight With John Oliver" at 11 p.m. 

The first showing of "The Slap" (the American adaptation of an Australian family drama series of the same name) is scheduled on Feb. 12. By midnight of Feb. 15, "Comic Book Men" will make its way back to AMC. TNT is setting up the stage for the fifth season of "Rizzoli & Isles," which will return on Feb. 17 at 9 p.m. 

Multiple shows are showing up on Feb. 19 and Feb. 23. On the former, "The Odd Couple" will premiere on CBS at 8:30 p.m. History Channel will telecast season 3 of "Vikings" at 10 p.m. On the latter, the journey of singing hopefuls starts as "The Voice" returns for its season 8 at 8 p.m. on NBC. "American Dad" will be on TBS at 9 p.m. and the second season of "The Night Shift" will be broadcast on NBC at 10 p.m. 

On Feb. 25, at exactly 8 pm, CBS will air "Survivor" season 30. It will then be followed by "The Amazing Race 26" at 9:30 p.m. CBS has an all-new season of "Mom" ready to premiere on Feb. 26.
