Taking over from Kerry Washington (The Fixer) and Marcia Gay Harden (Code Black), are a new set of all-powerful leading ladies features: Mireille Enos in The Catch starting at 20:30, followed by Madam Secretary at 21:30, which will see Téa Leoni returning for a second season.

From the producers of award-winning series The Fixer, Grey’s Anatomy and How to Get Away with Murder, The Catch season one is a brand new addition to Shonda Rhimes’ already thrilling catalogue of drama.

Mireille Enos (World War Z, The Killing), stars as Alice Vaughn, LA’s top private investigator, who happens to be at the top of her game. As a woman who prides herself on being one step ahead of the con-artists she puts behind bars, it’s more than devastating when she discovers that her fiancé, played by Peter Krause (Parenthood, Six Feet Under), has conned her out of millions and disappeared with her wealth, her long list of profitable clients, and possibly her sanity. Not one to back down, Alice prepares to embark on a private mission for payback and she’ll stop at nothing to catch her man.

The Catch also stars Sonya Walger (Parenthood, Lost), Rose Rollins (The L Word), Jacky Ido (Inglourious Bastards), Elvy Yost (Bandslam) and Alimi Ballard (Fast Five). It’s executive-produced by Shonda Rhimes, Betsy Beers, Allan Heinberg and Julie Anne Robinson.

Television viewers were glued to their screens last year when Téa Leoni made a comeback to the small screen in the political drama Madam Secretary. The series begins its second season on M-Net channel 101 from 21:30 on Monday, 30 May.

In season one, Elizabeth McCord, the shrewd, determined secretary of state drove international diplomacy, battled office politics and dodged protocol to negotiate global and domestic issues, both at the White House and at home. The second season premiere sees McCord being forced to take the oath of office when the President’s plane disappears, meaning she temporarily becomes Madam President. Adding to the excitement is Academy Award winner Morgan Freeman, who directs and makes a guest appearance in the second season premiere.

Madam Secretary
stars: Tim Daly as Henry McCord , Bebe Neuwirth as Nadine Tolliver, Željko Ivanek as Russell Jackson, Patina Miller as Daisy Grant, Erich Bergen as Blake Moran, Geoffrey Arend as Matt Mahoney, Kathrine Herzer as Alison McCord, Evan Roe as Jason McCord, Wallis Currie Wood as Stephanie “Stevie” McCord and Keith Carradine as President Conrad Dalton.
