A look at the upcoming schedule of sci fi and fantasy shows as well as recent news and/or trailers of note.
Schedule Notes
There are no sci fi TV premieres this week, but next week will make up for that with no less than six shows with new episodes hitting the schedule including Futurama Season 8 (Hulu), Good Omens Season 2 (Prime Video), and Harley Quinn Season 4 (Max). Wrapping up this week is AMC’s The Walking Dead: Dead City which has its two-hour season finale on Sunday. That one has been billed as a mini-series, but it could continue into a second season. Over on The CW on Monday, The Rising wraps up its eight-episode run. That is an acquisition from Sky in Britain and it has already been cancelled in that country.
