Sci Fi TV Highlights: A look at the upcoming schedule of sci fi and fantasy shows as well as recent news and/or trailers of note.
Schedule Notes:
The Walking Dead: The Ones Who Live has its finale on Sunday. That one has been pegged as a mini-series, though there have been talks of continuing it and having all three of the spin-off shows crossover at some point. The encore run of Halo wraps up this week on Showtime with the Season 2 finale. That network is also airing an encore run of Star Trek: Discovery and that may continue with the fifth season after it premieres next week on Paramount+. Last week, Ark: The Animated Series premiered on Paramount+ with no advance notice. The first six episodes of that show’s first season are available for streaming and the remaining eps will be released later this year. Below are the full listings for the current week, and you can see all of the premieres for April and beyond at this link. The two-week view of the schedule is available here.
