Weekly roundup of science fiction and fantasy shows (as well as movies/specials of note) 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.
HBO’s movie adaptation of Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451, starring Michael B. Jordan, Michael Shannon, and Sofia Boutella, will have its bow on Saturday. Apart from that, it is mostly season / series finales as the regular season winds down this week. On Monday, FOX’s cancelled Lucifer has its series finale that will leave us on a big cliffhanger. Fans are working hard to save that show, so perhaps it will get resolved at some point. On Tuesday, Freeform’s Shadowhunters has its mid-season finale. That one will be back with new episodes later in the Summer. On Wednesday, The CW’s Riverdale wraps up its second season and it is set to return for a third year. On Thursday, FOX’s Gotham has what could be its series finale as we still wait for word on its fate. Over on The CW Supernatural and Arrow have their season finales, with the former returning next year for its 14th season and the latter for its seventh. On Friday, ABC’s Once Upon A Time has its series finale, and in the next hour Agents of SHIELD has what could be its series finale as well (the network has not announced whether that one is coming back yet). You can see the complete rundown of renewals and cancellations so far at this link, and we will update that as new announcements come through.

Schedule Notes: If a show is listed as On Hiatus, that means that it is taking a break of more than two episodes in a row. If a streaming series is included in the listings after its premiere date, then it releases new episodes once per week on that day as opposed to releasing its entire season at one time.
