This weekly feature is in addition to TVLine’s daily What to Watch listings and monthly guide to What’s on Streaming.
With nearly 500 scripted shows now airing across broadcast, cable and streaming, it’s easy to forget that a favorite comedy is returning, or that the new “prestige drama” you anticipated is about to debut. So consider this our reminder to set your DVR, order a Season Pass, pop a fresh Memorex into the VCR… however it is you roll.
This week, you’ll find eight returning series (including new seasons of American Horror Story, The Other Two and See, and the midseason return Supergirl), 10 series debuts (including Adrien Grenier’s Clickbait, Adrien Brody’s Chapelwaite and ABC’s Ultimate Surfer competition) and a smattering of films and specials (including a gender-flipped She’s All That remake, an animated Witcher prequel and a behind-the-scenes look at The Mandalorian‘s Season 2 finale).
