It might not feel like it everywhere, but it’s time for blankets, sweaters, pumpkin-flavored everything, and most importantly, fall TV.\n<\/p>\n
As part of Entertainment Weekly’s Fall TV Preview<\/a>, we have rolled out first looks and exclusive previews about 32 new and returning shows, and below, you can see a little snippet from each of those stories. Want to know what’s next on Grey’s Anatomy<\/a>? We’ve got you covered. Are you more interested in Landman<\/a>? The Diplomat<\/a>? Survivor<\/a>? The Morning Show<\/a>? We could keep going.\n<\/p>\n Check it all out below.<\/p>\n The Paper (Sept. 4, Peacock) <\/p>\n A follow-up to the cult sitcom The Office<\/a>, The Paper<\/a> follows the same documentary crew that immortalized the dysfunctional Dunder Mifflin workplace as they find new subjects with the newsroom of The Truth Teller, a historic but dying Midwestern newspaper in Toledo, Ohio. At the helm is managing editor Esmeralda Grand (Sabrina Impacciatore<\/a>), who finds her newsroom turned upside down with the arrival of a new impassioned editor-in-chief Ned Sampson (Domhnall Gleeson<\/a>). Ned hopes to revive the paper back to its glory days with the help of the existing but wholly-unequipped staff \u2014 including none other than former Dunder Mifflin accountant Oscar Martinez (Oscar Nu\u00f1ez<\/a>), now residing in Ohio as the paper’s head accountant and contending with Esmeralda\u2019s many schemes as she undermines Ned at every turn.\u00a0\u2014Jessica Wang\n<\/p>\n NCIS: Tony & Ziva (Sept. 4, Paramount+) <\/p>\n Ten years in the making, NCIS: Tony & Ziva<\/a> star Cote de Pablo<\/a> says that when the opportunity finally came to spinoff her and Michael Weatherly<\/a>‘s beloved NCIS<\/a> characters into their own dedicated series, “We went fully into the deep end of the pool.” The Magicians and Aquarius creator John McNamara<\/a> re-teams one of television’s most beloved will-they-won’t-theys in a globe-trotting, genre-smashing caper that Weatherly’s Tony DiNozzo describes in the pilot episode as straddling a “fine line between a techno thriller and workplace comedy.” Weatherly himself characterizes NCIS: Tony & Ziva as “much more cinematic” than its procedural predecessor, but the heart of the series still lies with de Pablo and Weatherly’s indelible comedic-romantic chemistry. De Pablo says it’s “critical that the fans got a little bit of the Tony and Ziva that they remembered,” and what’s more, teases “a romantic payoff that they never got in the mothership.” \u2014Ryan Coleman\n<\/p>\n Candela Saitta as Justina, Melissa McBride as Carol Peletier, Norman Reedus as Daryl Dixon, Hugo Arbues as Roberto on ‘The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon’.<\/p>\n Manuel Fernandez-Valdes\/AMC<\/p>\n The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon (Sept. 7, AMC) <\/p>\n Norman Reedus<\/a>\u2019 Daryl and Melissa McBride<\/a>\u2019s Carol will find themselves on a new mission in season 3 of the spinoff series<\/a>, but perhaps the most notable thing is not what that mission is, but where it is. That\u2019s because the action is moving south of the border from France to Spain, changing the look and feel of the show with it. \u201cSpain feels entirely different than France,\u201d notes showrunner David Zabel. \u201cThe architecture, the geography, the language, the culture, the history \u2014 it just has a very different vibe in Spain. And so we’ve really leaned into those aspects of Spain, and they bring so much specificity and color and intrigue to the story.\u201d Of course, some things remain the same, because it turns out that yes, Spain also has zombies. \u2014Dalton Ross\n<\/p>\n Task (Sept. 7, HBO) <\/p>\n Balancing big existential questions with a bold re-envisioning of the cops-and-robbers genre, HBO\u2019s Mark Ruffalo<\/a>-led drama series Task<\/a> is a worthy follow-up to creator Brad Ingelsby\u2019s Mare of Easttown<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s got a great pulse. It\u2019s moving, it\u2019s exciting,\u201d Ruffalo promises to EW of the series, which follows a grieving FBI agent (Ruffalo) leading a task force in pursuit of a ring of burglars (fronted by Tom Pelphrey) in a Philadelphia suburb. Ruffalo adds, \u201cAnd at the same time, yes, you\u2019re going to get your heart torn out.\u201d \u2014Joey Nolfi\n<\/p>\n Only Murders in the Building (Sept. 9, Hulu) <\/p>\n There\u2019s a new trio checking in to Only Murders in the Building<\/a>. When Hulu’s hilarious whodunnit returns for season 5, true crime podcasters Charles (Steve Martin<\/a>), Oliver (Martin Short<\/a>), and Mabel (Selena Gomez<\/a>) begin investigating the suspicious death of the Arconia’s doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), bringing them into the orbit of three of the richest people in the world. And creator John Hoffman tells EW that the new characters (played by Christoph Waltz<\/a>, Ren\u00e9e Zellweger<\/a>, and Logan Lerman<\/a>) are actually based on real-life billionaires. “Unfortunately, many of those billionaires are litigious, so I’m also nervous to hit too close to home,” Hoffman says with a laugh. “But there are some well-known people.” Could tastemaker Camila White (Zellweger), tech wizard Bash Steeg (Waltz), and\/or nepo baby Jay Pflug (Lerman) be this season\u2019s killer? “Someone as powerful as that, I wouldn’t take anything off the table,” Hoffman teases. \u2014Sydney Bucksbaum\n<\/p>\n William Jackson Harper on ‘The Morning Show’.<\/p>\n Courtesy of Apple<\/p>\n The Morning Show (Sept. 17, Apple TV+) <\/p>\n When The Morning Show<\/a> returns with season 4, viewers can expect the halls of UBA to be a little more crowded. Alex Levy (Jennifer Aniston<\/a>) and Stella Bak (Greta Lee) might have successfully pulled off the merger with NBN that closed last season, but it doesn\u2019t mean their jobs are any easier when things pick back up. There are definitely \u201cgrowing pains,\u201d showrunner Charlotte Stoudt says. \u201cThe question of the season, I guess, is can the women do it better, now that they’ve chased out all these men? What are they gonna do with the place and can they avoid the mistakes that the men often made that we’ve seen in the past three seasons?\u201d Five major new characters join the series in season 4, including Marion Cotillard\u2019s board president, Celine Dumont; her husband, Miles (Aaron Pierre); Alex\u2019s father Martin Levy (Jeremy Irons); former NBN sports reporter Ben (William Jackson Harper), who executive produces the Olympics for UBA; and Bro Hartman (Boyd Holbrook), a podcaster who Stoudt says is an \u201cannoying\u201d holdover of the merger. With all those personalities roaming around, we suspect that \u201cmistakes\u201d will be hard to avoid. \u2014Ashley Boucher\n<\/p>\n Gen V (Sept. 17, Prime Video) <\/p>\n Sophomore year is about to begin! Season 2 of The Boys<\/a> spinoff series Gen V<\/a> will “carry the torch” between the events of the mothership supe drama’s penultimate and final seasons, executive producer Eric Kripke says. “There’s a lot in Gen V that really helps set up the climax of this final confrontation in The Boys,” he adds. The key to it all could be Jaz Sinclair’<\/a>s blood-bending Marie Moreau. “I was always hoping that they would write me to kill Homelander,” she says.\u00a0\u2014Nick Romano\n<\/p>\n Reba McEntire, Michael Bubl\u00e9, Niall Horan, and Snoop Dogg on ‘The Voice’.<\/p>\n Trae Patton\/NBC<\/p>\n The Voice (Sept. 22, NBC) <\/p>\n In a set visit to The Voice<\/a>, EW got a glimpse at what\u2019s in store when the series returns to primetime this fall. Season 28<\/a> sees a new class of talent ushered in by the recording artists who once inspired them. There’s no shortage of ways that the show’s quartet of coaches \u2014 which this season includes Michael Bubl\u00e9<\/a>, Niall Horan<\/a>, Reba McEntire<\/a>, and Snoop Dogg<\/a> \u2014 directly inspired this season’s contestants. \u201cIt’s always such an honor,\u201d Bubl\u00e9 says of contestants having connections to the coaches music. \u201cIt’s a trip. I’m just Michael Bubl\u00e9, you know? I worked on a fishing boat for years. I thought I was following my father’s and his dad’s and his dad’s [footsteps]. That\u2019s what I thought my path was, so the fact that I’m doing this is unbelievable.\u201d \u2014Briana Edwards<\/p>\n The Lowdown (Sept. 23, FX) <\/p>\n Ethan Hawke<\/a> is a rough-and-tumble citizen journalist on the hunt for the truth in FX\u2019s The Lowdown<\/a>. Created by Sterlin Harjo<\/a> (Reservation Dogs<\/a>), the hardboiled crime drama follows Hawke\u2019s rebellious writer Lee Raybon as he investigates the surprise death of a prominent Tulsa figure just days after he penned an explosive expos\u00e9 on the man\u2019s well-connected family. However, when an unexpected gift from beyond the grave hints that there may be more the story, Raybon finds himself diving headfirst into a world of corruption, fistfights, and intrigue in order to crack the case. \u201cIt gets crazier. That’s all I can say,” Harjo teases. “People will watch the first episode and think they know where it’s going, but it’s going somewhere else.” \u2014Emlyn Travis\n<\/p>\n Chris Chung and Gary Oldman on ‘Slow Horses’.<\/p>\n Apple TV+<\/p>\n Slow Horses (Sept. 24, Apple TV+) <\/p>\n Everyone’s favorite misfit MI5 agents are back in Slow Horses<\/a> season 5, and this time around, Roddy Ho has a girlfriend. “He gets a girlfriend this season, a real girlfriend, a physical one, not a bot, so that’s very exciting for him,” Christopher Chung, who plays the obnoxiously cocky agent we all love to hate, says. Naturally, “it also makes all the other slow horses question why he has a girlfriend and why she’s so stunningly beautiful. I think for him it’s a no brainer, but for everyone else, it starts to cause a bit of concern and makes them ask questions. Then obviously mayhem and chaos ensues.” Series director Saul Metzstein promises fans can expect all kinds of murder, suspense, and terrorism \u2014 and there’s even a weaponized fart courtesy of Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman<\/a>) thrown in for good measure. \u2014Lauren Huff\n<\/p>\n Survivor (Sept. 24, CBS) <\/p>\n Things will be heating up when Survivor<\/a> kicks off its 49th season \u2014 literally! \u201cOne thing that made this season a little unique is that it was extremely hot,\u201d host and showrunner Jeff Probst says<\/a>. \u201cAnd I know that might not sound like much given that a tropical environment is always hot, but I even felt it. It was just stifling, and the impact was noticeable, and I could track it because I was struggling. I had challenges at the end where I was puffing and puffing and I was drenched through my shirt with sweat. And so I was able to, for the first time in a long time, have just a little bit of a reminder, \u2018Oh man, this is one of the elements that you can’t overlook.\u2019\u201d Unfortunately for the players, there is no immunity idol or advantage that can help with that. \u2014D.R.\n<\/p>\n Andra and her twin sister, season 1 contestant Sandra, meet Mel on ‘The Golden Bachelor’.<\/p>\n Disney\/John Fleenor<\/p>\n The Golden Bachelor (Sept. 24, ABC) <\/p>\n Peg, 62, is a retired firefighter and bomb technician. Robin, 71, is a librarian who\u2019s run three triathlons. Alexandra, 67, sells luxury yachts and loves Bob Marley. The 23 gorgeous contestants<\/a> on season 2 of The Golden Bachelor<\/a> come from a wide variety of backgrounds, but they all have one thing in common: They’ve forgiven Mel Owens, Golden Bachelor\u2019s 66-year-old leading man<\/a>, for the stuff he said about dating women over 60<\/a>. After hearing Owens’ apology on night one at the mansion, the women believe the former NFL linebacker-turned-lawyer is here for the Right Reasons\u2122. \u201cHe was very remorseful about what he said,\u201d one 62-year-old contestant tells EW<\/a>. \u201cHe addressed it right off the bat and put our concerns at ease,\u201d a stunning 64-year-old adds. \u201cI feel very comfortable with him now.\u201d Not only did Owens eat crow during his opening night toast, he also invited 12 women on a comedy-roast group date and listened as they mocked him mercilessly for his ill-advised comments. \u201cI hope that it airs uninterrupted, unedited,\u201d Owens says. \u201cOf all the dates that I went on, that one is the most captivating.\u201d \u2014Kristen Baldwin<\/p>\n Glen Powell on ‘Chat Powers’.<\/p>\n Disney\/Daniel Delgado<\/p>\n Chad Powers (Sept. 30, Hulu) <\/p>\n Based on Eli Manning’s ESPN+ sketch of the same name, Chad Powers<\/a> picks up eight years after an unforgivable mistake nukes the promising football career of hotshot quarterback Russ Holliday (Glen Powell<\/a>). Russ then tries to resurrect his dreams by disguising himself as Chad Powers \u2014 a talented oddball who walks on to the struggling South Georgia Catfish team. Though the comedy is chock-full of real college football teams and real sports cameos (and, yes, that includes Manning), viewers don’t need to know their strip sacks from their fumbles to enjoy the series, which is deeply absurd but full of heart. In other words, it’s just as much inspired by Mrs. Doubtfire as it is a sports movie. Says co-creator Michael Waldron, “I’d hope maybe that’s the show’s defining quality, is the surprising amount of heart that we were able to find in the show based on this sketch… We realized early on in the writing process together that we could tell a really compelling story, not just about football, but about a guy trying to find his way back and trying to figure out who he really was.” Down, set, hike. \u2014 Lauren Huff\n<\/p>\n Abbott Elementary (Oct. 1, ABC) <\/p>\n School is back in session for season 5 of Abbott Elementary<\/a> with a new semester promising plenty more hijinks and surprises. Creator and star Quinta Brunson<\/a> teases that the season will kick off with a nice arc for Barbara (Sheryl Lee Ralph<\/a>). \u201cShe’s newly inspired and that’s been really exciting,\u201d Brunson says. The season will also bring an episode filmed live at a Philadelphia Phillies game, our first glimpse of Gregory\u2019s (Tyler James Williams<\/a>) apartment, and a \u201cgame changer\u201d of a Christmas episode. How do you like them teacher appreciation apples? \u2014Maureen Lee Lenker\n<\/p>\n Hanako Greensmith on ‘Chicago Fire’.<\/p>\n Peter Gordon\/NBC<\/p>\n Chicago Fire (Oct. 1, NBC) <\/p>\n Things aren’t looking great for Carver (Jake Lockett) and Violet (Hanako Greensmith) given the news that Lockett is leaving the NBC drama<\/a>. As for what that could mean for Violet \u2014 who finally confessed her feelings for Carver in the Chicago Fire<\/a> season 13 finale \u2014 Greensmith is hopeful. “Violet has taken on so much heartbreak and disappointment and frustration,” Greensmith says. “I feel as if I am witnessing her walk into a new phase of her life where she’s learning to live with these disappointments in a different way. They’re just kind of adding to the tapestry of her experience as opposed to being the chip that weighs her down. I think she’s walking into a new phase of her adulthood. A part of growing up is learning how to live with it as opposed to live against it.” \u2014Samantha Highfill\n<\/p>\n Chicago P.D. (Oct. 1, NBC) <\/p>\n Hank Voight (Jason Beghe) might not be as smart as he thinks he is. When Chicago P.D.<\/a> launches season 13, the Intelligence Unit is still very much dealing with the aftermath of all things Reid (Shawn Hatosy<\/a>). And nothing is as straightforward as Voight expected. “What we find is that Voight’s simple solution that he thought he had found was not so simple,” showrunner Gwen Sigan tells EW<\/a>. “So the team is actually disbanded and we are, in this first episode, exploring how the heck is he gonna get them back together? The bullpen has just been empty for a month, so it’s a very different feel to our start.” But hey, there’s nothing like a reunion to really kick off a season. \u2014S.H.\n<\/p>\n Caterina Scorsone and Anthony Hill on ‘Grey’s Anatomy’.<\/p>\n Anne Marie Fox\/Disney<\/p>\n Grey’s Anatomy (Oct. 9, ABC) <\/p>\n Just before the credits rolled on the season 21 finale in May, a ball of fire burst from Grey Sloan Memorial<\/a>, leaving fans to wonder who is in danger. Showrunner Meg Marinis says<\/a> season 22 will pick up moments later, and that Link (Chris Carmack<\/a>) is in \u201cimmediate danger,\u201d but there\u2019s a lot of the cast that could also be in peril. But there of course will be drama beyond the explosion \u2014 especially following the revelation that one of the new interns (played by Trevor Jackson) was the guy Simone Griffiths (Alexis Floyd) hooked up with the night before. \u201cHe is definitely mixing up the dynamics between our resident cast members, specifically Simone and Lucas, [played by Niko Terho],” Marinis says. \u2014Patrick Gomez\n<\/p>\n 9-1-1 (Oct. 9, ABC) <\/p>\n \u201cIt was important for us that this didn’t become ‘9-1-1: the Season of Perpetual Mourning,’ but it is kind of ‘9-1-1: the Season of Perpetual Grappling,\u2019\u201d showrunner and co-creator Tim Minear says of coming back for season 9<\/a> after killing off Peter Krause<\/a>\u2019s Bobby Nash earlier this year<\/a>. Part of that grappling and change will include Chimney (Kenneth Choi) as interim captain (but \u201cit’s not set in stone,\u201d says Minear), as well as the upgrade of recurring guest stars Corinne Massiah and Elijah M. Cooper \u2014 who play Athena’s (Angela Bassett<\/a>) daughter May and son Harry \u2014 to series regulars. Oh, and Mark Consuelos guests in the premiere as a \u201cMusk-ish, Bezos-ish billionaire” who gets swallowed whole by whale. Yep. \u2014P.G.\n<\/p>\n 9-1-1: Nashville (Oct. 9, ABC) <\/p>\n The latest expansion of the 9-1-1 universe stars Chris O’Donnell<\/a> as fire captain Don Hart; Jessica Capshaw<\/a> as his wife, wealthy businesswoman Blythe; Michael Provost as their firefighter son Ryan; and Kimberly Williams-Paisley<\/a> as Blythe\u2019s sister-in-law Cammie, a 911 dispatcher. “This show is a true family affair,” showrunner Rashad Raisani says<\/a> of this \u201csoapier\u201d installment of the action franchise, which also explores the \u201cgrittier\u201d side of Nashville via firefighter Blue Bennings (Hunter McVey) and his mom, Dixie (LeAnn Rimes). Also expect classic 9-1-1 emergencies, but with a Nashville twist: tornadoes that land Airstream trailers on top of bridges, a bachelorette \u201cpub pedal\u201d party gone very wrong. Oh, and plenty of music: Kane Brown<\/a> guests in the premiere \u2014 and you can\u2019t cast LeAnne Rimes<\/a> and not give viewers some songs. \u2014P.G.<\/p>\n Jason Clarke on ‘Murdaugh: Death in the Family’.<\/p>\n Disney\/Daniel Delgado<\/p>\n Murdaugh: Death in the Family (Oct. 15, Hulu\/Disney+) <\/p>\n It’s not normal to spoil a character’s fate before the TV show even premieres, but Patricia Arquette<\/a>‘s new true crime drama Murdaugh: Death In the Family<\/a> features what she calls her most \u201cdisturbing\u201d onscreen death yet. “I have died so many times in movies, I have to say, but there’s something different about it when you really think that person loves you ’til the last second,” Arquette says. The upcoming series, based on the popular Murdaugh Murders Podcast, tells the shocking true story of wealthy former lawyer Alex Murdaugh (Jason Clarke), who killed his wife Maggie (Arquette) and their son Paul Murdaugh (Johnny Berchtold) in 2021. (The real Alex is currently serving two life sentences without parole for the murders.) “I don’t know if there will ever really be able to be justice for her, or any of these families that he destroyed,\u201d Arquette says. \u201cI hope that there is, in some way.\u201d \u2014S.B.\n<\/p>\n Kathy Bates on ‘Matlock’.<\/p>\n Sonja Flemming\/CBS<\/p>\n Matlock (Oct. 16, CBS) <\/p>\n Kathy Bates<\/a> returns for the second season of Matlock<\/a>, which will pick up the various pieces that scattered at the conclusion of its inaugural year. The CBS legal procedural will explore the fallout of the cliffhanger involving Olympia (Skye P. Marshall) and her ex Julian (Jason Ritter), the impact of a stranger (Niko Nicotera) claiming to be the father of Madeline’s grandson Alfie (Aaron Harris), the possibility of Billy (David Del Rio) becoming a dad, and a storyline involving the previously unseen family of Sarah (Leah Lewis). Most importantly, we’ll witness how Madeline and Olympia’s relationship evolves after the game-changing climax of season 1, in which Bates’ protagonist ascertained which of her colleagues collaborated with a pharmaceutical company to keep opioids on the market \u2014 and revealed her true identity to Olympia. Showrunner Jennie Snyder Urman says that although the overarching mystery from season 1 has been settled, a similar serialized puzzle will run throughout the sophomore season to complement weekly cases. “It’s less of a mystery who-did-what-when and more of a question we’re seeking an answer to,” she explains. “And the ending of the season really propels the third season \u2014 should we get one \u2014 into a very different area.” \u2014Wesley Stenzel\n<\/p>\n Ghosts (Oct. 16, CBS) <\/p>\n Things aren’t looking good for Jay (Utkarsh Ambudkar<\/a>). When Ghosts<\/a> ended its fourth season, he had just made a deal with the devil \u2014 by accident, of course! “In the finale, we hear him freaking out,” co-showrunner Joe Wiseman tells EW. And with Elias (Matt Walsh) determined to speed up the deal by killing him, Jay will have his (survival) work cut out for him when season 5 premieres. “He’s afraid to use the toaster,” Wiseman continues. “He’s worried. He does not like the situation that he’s in so he’s both trying to protect himself and he’s also trying to think of ways to get out of it.” Let’s hope he finds a way to get out of it that doesn’t involve him … going down on us. \u2014S.H.\n<\/p>\n Rufus Sewell and Keri Russell on ‘The Diplomat’.<\/p>\n Clifton Prescod\/Netflix<\/p>\n The Diplomat (Oct. 16, Netflix) <\/p>\n With one phone call, everything changed. In The Diplomat<\/a>‘s season 2 finale, Hal’s (Rufus Sewell<\/a>) decision to tell President Rayburn (Michael McKean<\/a>) the truth about Grace’s (Allison Janney<\/a>) role in the British vessel attack led to Rayburn dropping dead. So when season 3 picks up in the same moment, Grace has to quickly adapt to her new role as president … as does Kate (Keri Russell<\/a>) who, just moments before, confronted Grace about wanting to replace her as vice president. “I’m interested in those moments where you feel like a line has been breached and then you decide the line should move,” showrunner Debora Cahn says. “And when is that growth and when is it just selling out your values and becoming somebody that you don’t wanna be?” The characters will ask themselves that question at least 100 times throughout the course of season 3. \u2014S.H.\n<\/p>\n Nobody Wants This (Oct. 23, Netflix) <\/p>\n Noah (Adam Brody<\/a>) and Joanne (Kristen Bell<\/a>) are in love. We’re not saying things won’t be complicated for the still-new couple when Nobody Wants This<\/a> returns for its second season, but what we do know is that the team behind the hit comedy isn’t interested in pulling the rug out from under its fans. \u201cWe are going to give audiences what they want,” star Kristen Bell tells EW. “They came here to see these people fall and be in love. We want to watch them interact. It worked for season 1, let’s stick with it.” But as they discover more about each other, they’ll also have a handful of new people to interact with, including Brody’s real-life wife, Leighton Meester<\/a>, who plays Joanne’s middle school nemesis. As Bell puts it, \u201cI know Leighton’s extremely talented, but I did not anticipate what a comedic sniper she was gonna be.” \u2014S.H.\n<\/p>\n Justin Kirk and Nicholas Denton on ‘Talamasca: The Secret Order’.<\/p>\n David Gennard\/AMC<\/p>\n Anne Rice’s Talamasca: The Secret Order (Oct. 26, AMC) <\/p>\n Anne Rice’s Talamasca: The Secret Order<\/a> is recruiting its most chaotic agent for its next Interview With the Vampire crossover when Justin Kirk’s return as shady, opportunistic agent Raglan James. First seen in Interview With the Vampire season 2, Raglan will next appear in episode 4 of new series. “I love being Raglan James \u2026 he is a goddamn mystery,” Kirk says. “When I heard that there was going to be a show about the Talamasca \u2014 because that’s where my character comes from and there’s not a book per se about that \u2014 I assumed they’d be calling me at some point. And I’m delighted that they did.” The six-episode first season of AMC’s latest Anne Rice universe series follows the titular secretive society that tracks witches, vampires, and all other supernatural creatures around the world. Nicholas Denton plays the Talamasca’s newest recruit, Guy Anatole, and showrunners John Lee Hancock and Mark Lafferty reveal seasoned veteran Raglan arrives to teach Guy a thing or two about his new employers. \u201cThere is something that our main character, Guy, has been tasked to retrieve,\u201d Lafferty says. \u201cAnd it just might be that Raglan is on a similar pursuit.” Cue their collision in three \u2026 two \u2026 one \u2026 \u2014S.B.\n<\/p>\n ‘Squid Game: The Challenge’.<\/p>\n Pete Dadds\/Netflix<\/p>\n Squid Game: The Challenge (Nov. 4, Netflix) <\/p>\n When Netflix’s reality competition spinoff based on scripted Korean drama Squid Game<\/a> brings in 456 new players, they\u2019ll take on Pentathlon \u2014 with a twist. “It’s slightly different from how it is in the drama, where two teams of five were competing to do their mini games in the rainbow circles against the clock, and if they didn’t complete it, they’d all die,\u201d executive producer Tim Harcourt tells EW<\/a>. \u201cWe simplified it slightly: The first team to finish will survive, and the team that finishes second, or doesn’t finish, I should say, are all eliminated. One of the games within our Pentathlon is the House of Cards: they have to build this giant stack of cards.\u201d And if you loved season 1’s fan-favorite mother-son duo Player 302\/LeAnn Wilcox Plutnicki andPlayer 301\/Trey Plutnicki, the producers have good news. “We’ve leaned into relationships even more in this season than we did in the first,” executive producer John Hay says. \u201cWe have siblings, we have parents and children. That has been really, really interesting in the way it’s changed the dynamics of the game.” \u2014S.B.\n<\/p>\n Sign up for\u00a0Entertainment Weekly<\/a>‘s free daily newsletter<\/a>\u00a0to get breaking TV news, exclusive first looks, recaps, reviews, interviews with your favorite stars, and more.\n<\/p>\n James (Damian Hardung) reverts to his old ways in ‘Maxton Hall’ season 2.<\/p>\n Courtesy of Amazon MGM Studios<\/p>\n Maxton Hall \u2014 The World Between Us (Nov. 7, Prime Video) <\/p>\n Season 2 of the hit Prime Video drama<\/a> picks up with troubled yet sensitive rich kid James Beaufort (Damian Hardung) reeling from the devastating loss of his mother, which sends him into a self-destructive spiral of drinking and partying. Naturally, James’ behavior does not play well with his true love, Ruby (Harriet Herbig-Matten), a brilliant and driven scholarship student. \u201cHe’s losing himself and he’s kind of acting like the old James,\u201d says Herbig-Matten. \u201cIn the beginning of season 2, something has happened that I can\u2019t [reveal], but that\u2019s why they’ve broken up.

Somehow unaffected, Carol \u2014 the most miserable person on Earth \u2014 embarks on a mission to save the altered world. \u201cShe doesn’t really want to be tasked with saving the world but she more or less feels like it’s her duty,\u201d Gilligan tells EW. \u201cComplications will ensue.\u201d Already picked up for a second season, the series also stars Karolina Wydra, Carlos Manuel Vesga, Miriam Shor, and Samba Schutte. \u2014J.W.\n<\/p>\n ‘Power Book IV: Force’.<\/p>\n Starz<\/p>\n Power Book IV: Force (Nov. 7, Starz) <\/p>\n Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora) is on his own and out for revenge in the final season of Power Book IV: Force<\/a>.

Whether he ends up running the streets of Chicago, the team behind the hit promises a powerful finale. Sikora praises showrunner Gary Lennon for capturing Chicago onscreen, much like Courtney Kemp did with New York in Power: \u201cSeason 3 will be blessed by the city of Chicago, so it will be accepted by the rest of the world.\u201d \u2014Alamin Yohannes<\/p>\n The Beast in Me (Nov. 13, Netflix) <\/p>\n Being creepy is an art. And it’s one Matthew Rhys<\/a> perfects in The Beast in Me<\/a>, Netflix’s upcoming thriller about struggling author Aggie Wiggs (Claire Danes<\/a>), who hasn’t written since the tragic death of her young son, and her intriguing (and terrifying) new neighbor, Nile Jarvis (Rhys), a real estate mogul who was a suspect in the death of his late wife. As Aggie decides that Nile might be a good subject for her next book, she starts to unravel both the man and his many secrets. “They are attracted and repulsed by each other for different reasons,” Rhys says, with showrunner Howard Gordon adding, “This thing could be the beginning of a Stephen King movie. It is a really deep psychological thriller. But it’s also a character study.” And a creepy one at that. \u2014S.H.\n<\/p>\n Billy Bob Thornton on ‘Landman’.<\/p>\n Emerson Miller\/Paramount+\u00a0<\/p>\n Landman (Nov. 16, Paramount+) <\/p>\n Grab your coveralls and your finest suit, because Landman<\/a> is headed to the patch and the office in season 2. Taylor Sheridan<\/a>\u2019s gritty West Texas oil drama returns just weeks after the shocking death of Monty Miller (Jon Hamm<\/a>) in its season 1 finale, with his widow Cami (Demi Moore<\/a>) and rugged fixer Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton<\/a>) officially stepping up as the new leaders of M*Tex Oil in his stead. And, honestly, to say that their new executive titles are an adjustment for the pair is a bit of an understatement. \u201cThe dynamic is certainly very interesting, because [Tommy’s] essentially telling [Cami], \u2018Look, you kind of got to listen to me, because you’ve never done this before,\u2019\u201d Thornton explains<\/a>. \u201cAnd her outlook on that as well is, \u2018How am I going to learn if you do everything?\u2019\u201d Sounds like one pretty explosive dynamic to us.\u00a0\u2014E.T.\n<\/p>\n Glenn Close and Niecy Nash-Betts on ‘All’s Fair’.<\/p>\n Disney\/Ser Baffo<\/p>\n All’s Fair (November, Hulu) <\/p>\n In the star-studded and sure to be deeply glamorous All’s Fair<\/a>, a team of female divorce attorneys \u2014 played by (deep breath!) Niecy Nash-Betts<\/a>, Sarah Paulson<\/a>, Naomi Watts<\/a>, Kim Kardashian<\/a>, Glenn Close<\/a>, and Teyana Taylor<\/a> \u2014 leave a male-dominated firm to open their own powerhouse practice. The series hails from writer and executive producer Ryan Murphy<\/a>, who also directs, but it’s a far cry from the monsters, grotesqueries, and all-American horror he’s done of late. “This is very shiny,” Nash says of All’s Fair. “This is boss chicks in great clothes who have their own private plane to go see clients if necessary. It’s kind of like the old-school soap operas where you used to gather to watch Dynasty and Knots Landing. You get the shiny version of people, but with the backdrop of their drama.” Adds Close: “Some outrageous things happen, I have to say… Never a dull moment, and we all are very glamorous. That’s another thing that Ryan promised \u2014 that we’d all have fabulous clothes and fabulous jewels and that kind of thing.” Do your thing, Ryan Murphy. \u2014Lauren Huff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It might not feel like it everywhere, but it’s time for blankets, sweaters, pumpkin-flavored everything, and most importantly,…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122103,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[64,63,134,427],"class_list":{"0":"post-122102","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tv","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-tv"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122102","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=122102"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122102\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=122102"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=122102"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=122102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
