2020 TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL ANNOUNCES SELECTIONS FROM THE TRIBECA TV LINEUP
The 2020 Tribeca Film Festival, presented by AT&T, would like to acknowledge the programs that were selected to be a part of our Tribeca TV series before the festival's postponement. The 2020 line-up consists of nine shows including highly-anticipated new and returning TV series.

With many of these programs launching in the coming weeks and months, and our festival's would-be audiences at home consuming more TV than ever before, we want to be sure to shine a special spotlight on these exciting new series to look out for.
