Happy weekend! Before we list the new TV<\/a> shows coming out this weekend, check out our Fall Preview<\/a> for what\u2019s coming out in the final months of the year.<\/p>\n

Slow Horses is back for a sixth season, making it one of the only contemporary TV shows that are committed to releasing a season per year. It\u2019s proven to be a successful gamble, developing a devoted fanbase and a critical darling. Then there\u2019s Neagley, the new series starring Alan Ritchson, and continued proof that he\u2019s becoming one of the definitive action figures of the decade.<\/p>\n

Slow Horses<\/p>\n

Available on Apple TV<\/p>\n

Genre: Spy thriller<\/p>\n

Episode count: 6<\/p>\n

Cast: Gary Oldman, Jack Lowden, Kristin Scott Thomas<\/p>\n

Based on the Mick Herron spy novels, Slow Horses follows the agents of Slough House, the MI5 unit where disgraced and faulty agents are sent. Each season has them meeting new enemies; this time around, the team is on the run from someone who\u2019s targeting and killing them off one by one.<\/p>\n

From our Polygon interview<\/a> with head writer Gaby Chiappe:<\/p>\n

Since premiering on Apple TV<\/a> in 2022, Slow Horses<\/a> has been one of the most consistently excellent shows on streaming. The adaptation of Mick Herron\u2019s Slough House spy novels never wastes a moment of its six-episode seasons, delivering tightly paced mysteries interspersed with biting humor at the expense of the show\u2019s failed MI5 agents. Even more remarkably, Apple has released six seasons in just four years at a time when the gap between new seasons of hit shows can exceed presidential terms. So when Slow Horses creator Will Smith announced he\u2019d be leaving after season 5, fans were understandably worried about what it would mean for the show. Perhaps no one was as nervous as Gaby Chiappe, who took on the role of head writer for season 6.<\/p>\n
