Sci Fi TV Premieres This Week:
Stranger Things, Netflix: Hawkins is scarred by the opening of the Rifts, and our heroes are united by a single goal: find and kill Vecna. But he has vanished — his whereabouts and plans unknown. Complicating their mission, the government has placed the town under military quarantine and intensified its hunt for Eleven, forcing her back into hiding. As the anniversary of Will’s disappearance approaches, so does a heavy, familiar dread. The final battle is looming — and with it, a darkness more powerful and more deadly than anything they’ve faced before. To end this nightmare, they’ll need everyone — the full party — standing together, one last time. The first four eps of Season 5 will be available on Wednesday. The next three will be available December 25th, and the finale will be available December 31st.
Schedule Notes:
AMC’s Talamasca: The Secret Order had only six episodes in its first season, not the eight episodes I thought, so its finale was November 23rd. There has been no word on a second season of that one yet. Below are the full listings for the current week, and you can see all of the premieres for November and beyond at this link. The two-week view of the schedule is available here.

Sci Fi TV News of Note:
Wednesday creators Al Gough and Miles Millar are starting on their next project for Netflix which will be an adult-animated series based on the Boom! Studios Grim comics by Stephanie Phillips and Flaviano. Deadline gives the following description of the property:
A character-driven supernatural saga, Grim follows Jessica Harrow, a newly recruited Reaper tasked with ferrying souls to the afterlife. Unlike her fellow Reapers, Jessica has no memory of her death or life before. Her search for answers pulls her deeper into the unseen architecture of the afterlife, revealing hidden forces, cosmic secrets, and her shocking personal connection to Death itself.
This is not to be confused with Grimm, the NBC supernatural drama that ran for six seasons and has a reboot in the works. Jennifer Yuh Nelson (Love Death + Robots) will also be onboard as executive producer for the Grim animated series, and this will likely be targeting a late 2026 or early 2027 premiere.
A re-imagining of the 1960’s supernatural sitcom Bewitched is in the works at Sony TV and Fox Entertainment. Deadline gives the following description:
In the new Bewitched, whose tone is described as heartfelt, though they come from two wildly different worlds — he’s a human, she’s a witch — for Samantha and Darrin, it’s love at first sight. But in order to be together, they’ll have to navigate their disapproving parents, walk a tightrope of cultural clashes, and bridge the divides between their families and worlds.
Judalina Neira (The Boys) will be writing and executive producing the series. It appears that this is headed to Fox and could be targeting a Fall 2026 premiere.
A new Stargate series is in the works at Prime Video, and longtime franchise alum Martin Gero will be helming the revival. You can read more about that in our latest Sci Fi TV Production Report post.
In additional production news, Season 4 of The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon has wrapped filming which should have it on track for a Summer or Fall 2026 premiere.
This past week brought renewal announcements for Peacock’s Twisted Metal, which will continue to a third season, and HBO’s A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, which has been renewed for a second season in advance of its premiere. In addition, House of the Dragon could go beyond its fourth season which was previously announced as its last.
In scheduling news, HBO’s upcoming DC series Lanterns has been pushed to a Summer 2026 release.
