Kaley Cuoco is officially coming back to TV.
The actress’ last series, Vanished, premiered back in February 2026, and fans have been eager to see her return to the small screen. On September 16, folks learned that Kaley will appear in a new HBO Max series called How to Survive Without Me. Set for 15 episodes, it will see Kaley alongside comedian Ray Romano, actress Rita Wilson, and Dawson’s Creek alum Joshua Jackson.

According to Variety, HBO Max dropped an official logline for How to Survive Without Me.
“In the wake of matriarch Beverly (portrayed by Rita)’s passing, the De Angelis family have begun to drift, unsure how to manage their complicated, evolving lives without her guidance,” the statement read. “But in true Beverly fashion, she found a way to keep running the show from the beyond. Should they wish to experience Beverly’s final work, the family must find the time—and make the effort—to remain connected and be there for each other through all of life’s challenges yet to come.”
Ray is set to portray Beverly’s husband, Leo, while Kaley and Joshua will play the couple’s children, Kate and Cooper.
“Ray Romano, Kaley Cuoco, Joshua Jackson and Rita Wilson lead a dream cast perfect for this emotional, extraordinary story,” said Sarah Aubrey, head of HBO Max original programming. “We’re delighted to be in business again with [creator] Greg Berlanti and our partners at Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television.”
