Prime Time Sci Fi TV: It’s Finally Back With New Episodes, The Walking Dead Season 5 Premiere Is Sunday

New or notable science fiction and fantasy entries on the Prime Time TV schedule, also including programs that may be of interest to genre fans. Air dates and times subject to change without notice.

The Fall premieres finally slow down this week, but we do get one of the biggest ones.  AMC’s The Walking Dead returns on Sunday and it looks ready to deliver a wild fifth season.  Also returning is AMC’s Comic Book Men which will air late on Sunday and Disney XD’s Star War: Rebels kicks off in its regular timeslot after the special premiere that aired two weeks ago (and which will air again on ABC on October 26th with added footage to include an appearance of Darth Vader).  Most of the rest of the week is business as usual for now and next week will bring the return of The CW’s The 100 and NBC’s Grimm as well as the premiere of NBC’s Constantine.
