In the search for answers, one family torn apart by this disaster will have to unlock the secrets of this inexplicable event to find a way back to each other. Premieres Tuesday on NBC at 9 PM EST.
The Walking Dead: World Beyond (Season 2 Premieres on AMC October 3rd): A heroic group of teens sheltered from the dangers of the post-apocalyptic world leave the safety of the only home they have ever known and embark on a cross-country journey to find the one man who can possibly save the world.

Wellington Paranormal season is over – no episode on Oct 3rd.
No new episodes scheduled for the time being the next
season (3rd) has shown in New Zealand already,
but has not been scheduled here in United States yet.
Thanks for the heads up. The schedule I check each week originally showed a new episode, but that has since been changed.
re”Star Trek Lower Decks (Paramount+) Thursday On Hiatus”
Lower Decks has Not been on Hiatus, but you have labeled
it so the last few weeks.
Marvel’s “What If?” has been streaming on DisneyTV on Wednesday for a
number of weeks. I am not sure if it would be classified as science-fiction.
Corrected now. Thank you for the heads up.
