Compared to the first two months of 2024, PBS has a lighter schedule of premieres in March. But what it does have is very impressive, including the U.S. premiere of Nolly, with Helena Bonham Carter (pictured above) starring in this bio miniseries about a famous British actress, Noele “Nolly” Gordon. Additionally, the new drama Alice & Jack is making its premiere this month, while the hit British series Call the Midwife returns for season 13.
Antiques Roadshow isn’t listed below because season 28 is already in progress. But new episodes of Antiques Roadshow will premiere on March 11 and March 25. PBS NewsHour is also covering the Super Tuesday primaries on March 5 before shifting the focus to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union on March 7. There are also new documentary specials scattered throughout the month.
If you missed the best shows on PBS from February, you can still stream those online. But you will have to wait for the premiere dates listed below to catch everything coming to PBS in March.

Nolly on Masterpiece
Premieres: Sunday, March 17
The Crown‘s Helena Bonham Carter stars as soap opera legend Noele “Nolly” Gordon, one of the most famous faces on British TV in the 1960s and 70s, whose unceremonious firing from her hit show at the height of her career was front-page news. A bold exploration of how the establishment turns on women who refuse to play by the rules, Nolly is an outrageously fun and wildly entertaining ride through Gordon’s most tumultuous years, and a sharp, affectionate, and heartbreaking portrait of a forgotten icon. Nolly was written by Russell T. Davies.

Or will life and their own emotional complexities get in the way? Honest, intimate, and surprisingly funny, the series shows love in all its unexpected, technicolor, kaleidoscopic beauty.
