TV Schedule - Summer 2018
 

Hi dudes and dudettes, it has come round to that time of the year where we wipe the slate clean of the summer series and start fresh for the new fall tv season. I am starting a new thread so nobody gets confused with the posts and any dates mentioned in last year's thread.

There will be 3 main updates to this thread over the next year. The first one is this one which is by far the largest update of the year for new tv season which includes many new series as well as returning series. The second update will be the mid-season update in the new year where I wipe everything pre-Christmas off and we focus on January-March and March will be the final update of the year looking at what is on over summer. I will be making minor updates in between as air dates get revised and new information gets released. If you are looking at your calendar and thinking it looks quite empty in comparison to previous years it is because there are quite a few returning series this year that are going to be shown mid-season (after Christmas) and there are no specific dates yet so keep coming back and checking.

The list is in chronological order although I am listing new series separately so they stand out and you can give them greater consideration if you are looking for something new to seek your teeth in to. This is by no means an exhaustive list of every series in existence and is only the series which I watch/will be watching as well as some other popular series I have seen other forum users mention. In the event that I have missed something out or you would like to see something added to the list please say so and I'll do my best to get it added.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Gotham has been brought forward a week to the 21st making it one of the first returning series for those of you that watch it.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Agents of Shield will air in the US the week after the Marvel's Inhumans 8 episode run. Let's hope it's the same in the UK.

Link

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Yeah, saw that ages ago, should be the end of November, assuming no breaks in the Inhumans run.
They have 22 episode of AOS to then fit in, which will be a squeeze given the normal breaks they take.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

As per the artticle " Dungey also noted that S.H.I.E.L.D. will air its 22-episode season mostly uninterrupted."

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Van Helsing returns for Season 2 on October 5th.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

l quite enjoyed the first series.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

One to keep an eye out for, it will probably start in January/whenever Vikings finishes it's season run.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I need to watch a few more eps of Seal Team to see how it goes. The Brave did my head in, there is so much wrong with it, so I am ditching that and Young Sheldon. I'll watch Inhumans later and report back.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I havent seen Young Sheldon yet

The Brave has already been cancelled.
Inhumans is dead in the water, not officially cancelled yet, but reportly so.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

lol, I just don't understand how stuff can be made with so many annoying mistakes. I need to be a tv series tester and watch these things before they get released so I can tell them what is wrong and they can go back and fix it. I kind of feel sorry for the main dude from Under the Dome, I really like him and wish I could swap him out for David Boreanaz in Seal Team.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

In catchup mode.

Lucifer - caught up.
Flash and Legends both watched.
Gotham - still need to start the new season
Gonna try The Tick.
Need to finish The Expanse, end of season 2.
Need to watch Star Trek: Discovery - Liked the JJ movies and the third but never actually watched a TV series version of Star Trek.
Also going to try The Gifted.
Gonna re-try The last ship at some point along with Timeless given it got a renewal.

Now confirmed as December 1st

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Its not anything like most other Trek TV series but its also not like the recent JJverse movies. Meant to be set in the prime timeline of the original Kirk and other series timeline though, not bad though.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Just added Marvel's Runaways, take a look at the trailer and see what you think. It isn't jumping out at me but I'll give it a go.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Thats always been the case, it was slated take over the Inhumans slot (with a break for the thanks-giving week).

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

My calendar says 21st November

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Yeah I'd read that in your other thread that it'd just kick off right after Inhumans but noticed General had it listed for TBC - January. I still haven't tried Inhumans yet, I hope it doesn't tie in or crossover anywhere.

I have December 1st - 2 hour special

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I still wish they'd get rid of those main title graphics in the opening credits and go back to the ship traveling through space.

Star Trek: Discovery opening credits are unlike any you've seen



Yeh, right!

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

when I made the thread a few months ago I google'd the series which I didn't have definite dates for and stuff like Homeland and AoS came back as mid-season or the New Year so I put them down as January approx so everyone knew they weren't going to start up with everything else now and then I can go back and change them accordingly.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Yea its not really got a Trek feel about the credits at all. Too modern and a bit like the GoT or James bond type sequences.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I concur, 5x01 and 5x02 to start the season off. :)

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Whatever you do don't watch Extinct. It is like one of those B movies you see on the Syfy channel which is a off of something like Armageddon and is so bad it is comical. I turned it off after 20 mins and thought my time would be better spent watching paint dry.
On a serious note though, I moved to the next thing on my list which was the season premiere of The Shannara Chronicles which was infinitely better.

I haven't made my mind up about Valor yet. At face value it is ok and I enjoy the military side of it but I think it is going to dig itself a hole and go OTT with the drama and conspiracy side of things. I am happy with a straight forward military series like Seal Team without it trying to be something else.

Oh and I am giving up on Wisdom of the Crowd after 2 eps as well.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Just added three new series starting in November. Everyone might want to take a look at Future Men because it is scifi, there is a trailer for it as well.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

You realise its a comedy, right ?

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

yup, this is exactly the kind of thing I can't stand and I am glad they made a trailer for it because I now I can save myself 45 mins and not watch the pilot.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

One to keep an eye out for next year:

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

So .. Dark Matter minus the memory loss.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

good point, youtube/google (whoever owns it) might as well have bought the rights to Dark Matter and continued it that way, it would saved them a tonne of $$$ on starting from scratch.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Just added Knightfall if you want to check it out. Looks very similar to Vikings apart from this is a British story.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Valor has been cancelled by the CW after one season.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

good, each episode has been doing my head in even more, it is actually quite laughable in some places. It doesn't matter where they are, whether they are in the helicopter, having a BBQ with friends, in the locker room with a tonne of other military guys......."we are going to take a two minute break from the main story and talk about the conspiracy in front of everyone that we are trying to keep secret for the millionth time".

The thing which let this series down is that there is only 5% of what I wanted to see which is military action in the helicopter. The rest is stupid conspiracy plot and family drama. I was going to drop it anyway because I prefer Seal Team and SWAT started last week as well. The best by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar though if you like military stuff is The Long Road Home which started last night. I watched it this morning and loved it. It is a proper military story Band of Brothers style based on the Iraq war. I am hoping it is not a one-off and they pick up another story in season 2. Considering it has been produced by National Geographic it has been very very well done and so far I am not having any issues at all with my "realism factor". I would gladly ditch the other series and take this one if I had to choose between them.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

We shall see, the site I use still lists it as cancelled.


Incidently, I have no idea why they renewed "Blindspot" either, that was expected to die, and didnt, and its not doing very well again.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I can't believe it is doing so well. Before I saw that article I read this one:

You just cant believe that **** like The Brave can out do so many other respectable tv series. Apart from SWAT I don't watch any of the others but I know Blue Bloods used to be huge and is very well respected.

Edit: I have just read both articles again and they are picking which figures they use to make it sound good. SWAT and Blue Bloods (don't know about the others) are 10+ million viewers a week and The Brave is only 8.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Interestingly, 9JKL is also apparently for the chop, despite the extra episodes ;

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I have started to update the main post with the returning dates for after xmas. Some of them aren't available yet so the season premiere dates for the relevant series are still at the top of the list with returning dates in the second half. As the info becomes available I will update and move them around accordingly.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

cool, Seal Team is defo worth the watch.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

just done a semi-final update for post-xmas. Pretty much all the return dates are available now. Make sure you check out the new series, there are only a few of them but they look really good.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Where did you get the date for the 100 from ?
Ive been looknig out for that but not seen any date yet.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I don't know and it is really flipping bugging me now. I didn't put that in yesterday, I did it a couple of weeks ago when I started updating the thread and the reason why I started updating it is because the site I use started posting articles for return dates. As I was going through them there was a article about The 100 and one of the side bits of info was the season 5 premiere date which I surprised about and I distinctly remember reading it because when I saw March I thought :wtf: which is why I put the :shocked: next to it. I wanted to give you a link to confirm it but I can't flipping find it now. I think they must have edited the article and removed it. The dates haven't been updated on my tv calendar or epguides yet either. I am going to leave it in there because I wouldn't have moved it off the TBC list if I wasn't absolutely sure and it defo isn't coming any time soon.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

The 100 Season 5 starts on April 24 (2018)
iZombie Season 4 starts on February 26 (2018)
The Originals Season 5 starts on April 20 (2018)

Timeless is currently set for the summer of 2018, no exact date yet.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

ta

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Elementary actually returns on April 30th, meaning it will run over the summer months.

Code Black also returns the same week, on May 2nd.

---------- Post added at 00:27 ---------- Previous post was at 00:23 ----------

Star Wars Rebels returns on February 24th.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

thanks, I went to go and find the post with the airdate on to prove that it wasn't my mistake the site I use has gone back and edited all the previous posts with an update for April now :)


Start getting excited:

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Thats the first trailer for it thats actually looked good, the previous ones didnt really do much for me.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Out of all the recurring shows and the ones I've picked up. Agents of Shield has been the best. Such a great season for a show that seems to be getting better as it goes on yet faces the threat of cancellation. Hoping Disney can pull some strings again. Although it'll die if we start losing essential cast members.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

yeah, definitely better than the Marvel/Netflix series and given the competition with DC hopefully they'll keep it going even if they would normally cancel it going by whatever criteria they use. If they can keep shit like LoT going for the sake of another series being part of the DC universe then they can keep AoS going. If I had to choose between AoS and all the DC and Marvel/Netlix series put together, I would choose AoS because it is just so good.

I have just had a look at the figures and going by these you would think it is going to be cancelled so I do hope Disney do something special or at least show some respect to the Marvel universe and let them have a proper ending.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I actually like LoT and don't think it is shit.

It's fun.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

what happened to the swear filter?

The only consolation is that LoT is worse off that AoS. I know they are different networks but I don't like contradictions and double standards so if LoT stays hopefully AoS will.

I would be interested to know how AoS compares to the other Marvel series but sadly they aren't measured in the same way,

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I really don't enjoy AoS much now but am still watching it.

DC have fared better for their tv show on network tv. Wasn't till netflix got involved that Marvel got better.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I have done several updates this morning including adding some new series, check out The Crossing. By far the most important though is the season 2 return date for Westworld. It was a very pleasant but massive shock because for some reason I wasn't expecting it till next year (I thought it came out last year and not 2016). We have got some excellent scifi series going at the moment.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Looks like we are in for more when it returns following mid season break,

https://twitter.com/AgentsofSHIELD/s...73645932838913

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

You get a thumbs down here :td:
There is nothing wrong with LoT, I love it and am looking forward to its return next week.

I also like AoS, although I was getting just a little fed up of the future setting, I'm glad to see them returning to Earth.

For the record, on most sites that follow the likelyhood of shows being renewed, LoT is considered to be an almost certainty, and AoS very likely.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I agree, I think LoT season 1 was truly awful, bad casting, bad characters. Season 2 rectified that but was essentially like starting again, season 3 nails it down and it the best of the three and arguably the best CW DCU show right now given how awful Arrow is and surprisingly how up and down The Flash is becoming.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

The Arrow is laughable. I breathed a sign of relief when they broke up the team because I thought they were getting rid of the newbies but it has just got worse since. No matter what they do and how bad it is, they keep coming back to the same excuse of "well you spied on us" as if it is justification for everything. This is one of those annoying examples of bad script trumps common sense behaviour. I would love to do the season parody script for this which SFX sometimes do at the back of the mag,

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Atm, I find myself lookig forward to LoT, Supergirl, and so far, Black Lightning.

I have to make an effort to watch the Flash as thats getting tiresome, and almost force myself to watch Arrow.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Arrow will never recover unless CW actually wants it to. It needs a new creative team dedicated to it and not one they'll pull out from under it again when a new show needs to debut (That's what originally happened)

The Flash is still the headliner but the actual villain of the week episodes are becoming tiresome to watch. We're past Barry's learning phase that made those episodes interesting in the first place. The story arc is interesting enough but they need to start popping out better episodes for the monster episodes.

That leaves Lot for my main show nowadays and it's like a goofy more fun Timeless. I enjoy it. The characters have really grown since being a B show cast.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

What about Supergirl? It is by far my favourite out of the 4.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Never picked it up yet, I have a severe lack of interest in anything relating to Superman. Man of Steel is the only thing I've ever enjoyed related to that. I assume others have similar feelings about other Comic Book heroes.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Foregoing a lecture i cannot emphasise enough how amazing Smallville is. It is a proper series with strong characters, great stories and depth. The current stuff is super hero cheese in comparison and all uses the same formular. Smallville sets the bar and if it was on now it would be my favourite series. The reason why i cant stand Man of Steel, BvS or any other iteration of Superman and Lois Lane etc is because for me it is Tom Welling and Smallville.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Legends returned ofc, with CW using John Constantine with it known they're considering pushing a season 2 out. Great season so far.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Yep, was good to see JC again.

(and get it on with Sara, so jealous ;)).

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

He'd fit in well as a regular. I'm surprised they haven't tried making him permanent member.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

They're dabbling over whether a full season return is possible, first testing the waters with Season one on demand, then animation. His character and standalone show doesn't follow the superhero trend and it's something different to offer. If that doesn't come off then I foresee him making sporadic appearances across the Prime Universe shows, LoT, Flash & Arrow.

They'll undoubtedly be trawling through reactions to his appearances.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

how very very interesting. I am more of a Laurel person.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Thats fine, you can have here, I'll have the sister :angel:

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Done :handshake i fell in love with Laurel when i first saw her in Harpers Island.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Just added Lost in Space

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Loved the original and from that trailer I hope this is good. Looks like it sticks closer to source than the 90s movie did.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Yeah i am very excited about this. I love quality character driven stories and this could potentially be excellent.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Some interesting info on the series here

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lost...2018_TV_series)

Premise sounds a little different and Dr Smith is now female, played by a lovely actress too.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Dang that looks really really good.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

yup, and it has got Captain Flint in it from Black Sails and I thought he was excellent. I love space scifi more than any other genre of tv. Having The Expanse, Lost in Space and Westworld in April is going to make up for not having any GoT this year.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Season 2 of Luke Cage is back in June

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Ah, thats better.

The first series was one of the better Netflix ones, so lets see what season 2 is like.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

Just added a new series, Siren, which I think some peeps might be interested in. Airs on 30th March.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

You may want to take a look at this, it started last night although I am not sure whether it airs on Channel 4 or Netflix:

Kiss Me First
Leila is a lonely 17 year old girl addicted to a fictional online gaming site called Agora. While playing on the platform, Leila meets Tess, a cool and confident party girl who harbours a dark secret. In the real world, the two girls become friends, but after Tess disappears Leila decides to assume her friend's identity and in doing so is quickly drawn into unravelling the mystery behind her disappearance.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I have it queued up ready to watch. Perhaps tonight.

Re: TV Schedule - Fall 2017/2018
 

I am not going to put it on the main list because I doubt many people will be interested. I am working my through the new issue of SFX and they have done a feature on a new scifi/post apocalyptic series called The Rain which sounds good and starts on Netflix on 4th May. The only problem is that it is in flipping (wanted to use the F word) Danish!




I know I am a bit late but I have only just found out. I have added the return dates for Colony season 3 and Six season 2. Also added a new scifi series called Reverie which starts at the end of May. Check it out.

Re: TV Schedule - Summer 2018
 

I know it's a bit late but I have only just received the notification on my calendar. A new series called The Impulse has started all the episodes are available on youtube or via alternative means. I have put a link to the trailer in the listing if you want to check it out.

Re: TV Schedule - Summer 2018
 

Its just called Impulse, and is sort of spinoff from Jumper.

I watched the first episode the other week, didnt bother with any more.
