We’re feeling kind of spoiled this fall season, with a fresh batch of Brit-centric shows premiering and some favorites returning. We’d be pleased with the British programming alone, but we can also look forward to American TV shows topped up with British actors, which we have outlined below:

1. You’re the Worst

Who: Chris Geere
What: Chris Geere, who’s starred in British programs like Waterloo Road, Death in Paradise and Outnumbered, plays a Brit living in L.A. He meets a girl at a wedding, and while they’re not too keen on each other they end up having a one-night stand. That night somehow turns into a relationship, even though both of them drag their feet. The second season has premiered, and while the two are in coupledom, they just really don’t want to become too ordinary.
When: September 9
Where: FX

2. Blindspot 

Who: Marianne Jean-Baptiste
What: A young woman (Jaimie Alexander) is found naked and alone in NYC’s Times Square. Her mind has been wiped clean, but she’s tattooed from head to toe with clues about crimes to come. Marianne Jean-Baptiste (Broadchurch) portrays Bethany Mayfair, Assistant Director of the FBI. She’s running the investigation into the mystery of Jane Doe. Here is Jean-Baptiste talking about her character, saying, “She’s high up on the food chain.”
When: September 21
Where: NBC

3. Scream Queens

Who: Lucien Laviscount
What: Ryan Murphy‘s (American Horror Story, Glee) new series revolves around a group of elitist college co-eds exacting terror (not literally) over the campus under the guise of the Greek system. The Queen Bee of the sororities Chanel Oberlin (Emma Roberts) is notified that she can no longer exclude students, and everyone applying to the sorority will be accepted. This bit of news may throw off her reign, but that’s not Chanel’s biggest concern, with a serial killer on the loose. British actor Lucien Laviscount (Episodes, Skins) portrays a character named Earl Grey. You can watch the trailer for Scream Queens here.
When: September 22
