The title of the thread is a question that popped into my mind a few days ago (BEFORE we heard about Hellfire and Legion). So here's what I've got, let me know which ones I'm forgetting (not counting cartoons like Teen Titans Go, TMNT, etc, only live action):

aired in 2015 already or will soon
Arrow
Flash
Gotham
iZombie
Constantine
Agents of Shield
Agent Carter
Daredevil
Powers
The Walking Dead
Fear The Walking Dead
Dark Matter
Supergirl (airing soon)
Jessica Jones (airing soon)
Outcast (airing soon)


expected sometime in the next year or two
Luke Cage
Iron Fist
Defenders
Legends of Tomorrow
Preacher
Lucifer
Wynonna Earp
Brooklyn Animal Control


maybe coming, though some of these surely won't happen
Riverdale
Y The Last Man
The Boys
Damage Control
Marvel's Most Wanted (the Mockingbird show)
Hellfire
Legion
Red
Titans
Powerless
Scalped
DMZ
Krypton
Dial H For Hero
Starman
Enormous
unnamed John Ridley Marvel series
Empire of the Dead
Harrow County
Jacked (Amped?)
Static Shock


That first column is already pretty huge. The crazy thing about it is that every one of them (that has aired so far) except for Constantine has been renewed for a second season. Add in another half dozen from that second list that will show up before next fall. And then add in another half dozen (or maybe an even dozen) from that third list that will show up before Rogue One hits the theaters next Christmas.

As for that 3rd list, yeah, there's actually a lot more stuff we've heard rumored or imagined, but I tried to edit it down to the current crop of likely candidates. But if you really wanted, that 3rd list could include Punisher and Ronin and Watchmen and a hundred more.


Am I forgetting any big ones?
 
For the third column, a THUNDER Agents TV show is in the planning stages, headed by Michael Uslan (a producer on all Batman films since the 1989 Burton film), according to NYCC.
