fall tv preview 2025 56 most anticipated new and returning shows varie

If you’re waiting for the fall TV season to start watching some great stuff, let us tell you: There’s some great stuff already here! There’s FX’s “Alien: Earth,” already at its midway point, and as of this week, we now have the full second season of “Wednesday.” But yes, if summer 2025 offered a manageable number of shows you could actually keep up with, well … the firehose is about to turn on again to drown you. On last year’s post-dual-strikes fall season — a veritable tsunami — our preview list of new and returning series was 65 shows deep, and this fall isn’t all that different: Below, we’re taking you... (And just today, Peacock announced that the fourth and final season of “Bel-Air” will premiere on Nov. 24.)

Not everything has been dated yet, either. HBO has “The Chair Company” from “I Think You Should Leave” co-creators Tim Robinson and Zach Kanin (starring Robinson) this fall. And in late-breaking news, HBO’s much-anticipated “IT: Welcome to Derry” — the 1960s-set prequel to Andy Muschietti’s feature-film adaptations of Stephen King’s terrifying 1986 novel — will scare the crap out of viewers beginning... 26. Muschietti himself developed it, along with Barbara Muschietti, and Jason Fuchs, and the cast will include Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo and (shaking with fear as we type this) Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise. One feature of last fall’s deluge was the six (6!) shows from creator Ryan Murphy: This fall, Murphy has “only” four offerings, including three with dates below, “Monster: The Ed Gein Story,” the latest...

On “All’s Fair,” Kardashian, in her first lead role on a scripted series, will be flanked by Naomi Watts, Niecy Nash-Betts, Teyana Taylor and Matthew Noszka, with Sarah Paulson and Glenn Close also among... That will bow on Hulu in November. Network television had a resurgence in the 2024-25 season, with dramas such as “Tracker,” “High Potential,” “Doc” and “Matlock” (among others) showing there are still significant signs of life (and large audiences!) to be... Of course, all four broadcasters have tons of returning shows, including Fox’s Sunday animation block, led, as always, by “The Simpsons,” on Sept. 28, and a full night of “NCIS” on CBS (“NCIS,” “NCIS: Origins” and import “NCIS: Sydney”) premiering on Oct. 14.

But what the hell? You can’t win if you don’t try, people! From Peacock’s “The Paper” and HBO’s “Task” to ABC’s “9-1-1: Nashville” and Netflix’s “Stranger Things” We may not be ready for the end of summer, but that won’t stop the fall TV avalanche from bringing all kinds of new and returning shows into our lives. While networks and streaming services have gotten more selective in the post-peak TV era, there’s still plenty of variety across the entertainment landscape. Returning network favorites like CBS’ “Matlock” or ABC’s “9-1-1” franchise and “High Potential” will deliver the weekly twists that keep us tuning in, while new shows like “DMV” and “The Road” on CBS hope...

Streaming favorites like Hulu’s “Only Murders in the Building” and Apple TV+’s “Loot” will bring the laughs back as the days start to get colder, along with new shows like “Chad Powers” and HBO’s... This fall will also have plenty of prestige fare to enjoy, like HBO’s highly anticipated drama series “Task” and Netflix show “Death by Lightning” from “Game of Thrones” creators David Benioff and D.B. Weiss. And there’ll be no absence of horror-based stories for spooky season, with Netflix’s “Monster: The Ed Gein Story,” Peacock’s “Devil in Disguise: John Wayne Gacy” and HBO’s “It: Welcome to Derry.” And of course, we have the long-awaited final season of “Stranger Things” kicking off on Thanksgiving. TV fans will be pretty busy in the months to come.

Your favorite shows are back from vacation As always, fall is a great time to be a fan of horror shows — and an equally great time to be a fan of TV procedurals — and, frankly, just a great time... This season's biggest premieres have it all. If you're looking for Halloween vibes, check out HBO's IT prequel series IT: Welcome to Derry, AMC's Anne Rice series Talamasca: The Secret Order, and the first part of the final season of Netflix's... Apple TV's enigmatic new sci-fi series Pluribus and FX's The Lowdown bring the mystery. HBO's Task brings prestige cat-and-mouse drama.

Paramount+ Westerns Tulsa King and Landman are keeping Taylor Sheridan's dynasty alive. And broadcast TV hits like CBS's Matlock and ABC's 9-1-1 are getting back to work.

There are a lot of new and returning shows to check out this fall, including Kristen Bell and Adam Brody in "Nobody Wants This" Season 2, Mark Ruffalo in an HBO series by the... This list does not include shows that are in the middle of their current seasons, like The Summer I Turned Pretty, Alien: Earth, Peacemaker, Outlander: Blood of my Blood, and more. And this list only includes scripted programming, sorry, reality TV. Want to know what shows (and movies) to watch every single week? Sign up for our Screen Time newsletter here to get movie and show recommendations delivered right to your inbox. One of my favorite shows from last year returns with Season 2 this fall, and I am counting down the days.

Nobody Wants This Season 2 will pick up where Season 1 left off, with Joanne (Kristen Bell) and Noah (Adam Brody) navigating their new relationship, especially after Noah ran after Joanne. Also, this time around, Leighton Meester, Miles Folwer, Alex Karpovsky, and Arian Moayed guest star. I mean, Adam and Leighton?! Plus, a Succession reunion between Arian and Justine Lupe?! Say less. Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez return for the fifth season of Only Murders in the Building.

This new season picks up after the death of beloved doorman, Lester (Teddy Coluca), who is found dead. Now, Charles (Martin), Oliver (Short), and Mabel (Gomez) are thrust into another investigation that puts them in the paths of powerful billionaires, old-school mobsters, and even residents of the Arconia. Season 5 features an incredible line-up of guest stars like Renée Zellweger, Logan Lerman, Bobby Cannavale, Christoph Waltz, Téa Leoni, Keegan-Michael Key, Beanie Feldstein, Dianne Wiest, Jermaine Fowler, and more. And, don't worry, Meryl Streep is returning, too. Is it unrealistic how much murder can take place in one apartment building? Yes.

Do I care? Absolutely not. The oppressive heat of the summer is waning (in some parts), the leaves will fall soon, and TV is back to usher in your cozy time on the couch, hot bevy in hand. The fall 2025 TV schedule features a cornucopia of new and returning series, so the TV critics at CableTV.com are here with fan-friendly, hand-picked recs to help you cut through the industry noise and... Not surprisingly, for most, the team has recommended a pair of returning Netflix dramas sure to tap into your fall spooky vibes. The second part of the newest season of Wednesday returns on September 3, while the final three-part season of Stranger Things resurfaces on November 26.

But don’t worry if you’re not into thrills and chills like our critics, because we also included more drama-filled shows to (pumpkin) spice up our list. All that drama aside, according to our critics, comedy will be king this fall (again), with staples like Only Murders in the Building and Emily in Paris returning. But don’t sleep on some of our off-the-beaten-path picks, like Hazbin Hotel and Chad Powers, which will be sure to tickle your funny bone.

Whether you’re watching via phone, tablet, laptop, TV, projector or, most likely, some combination of those, fall has brought its usual influx of original programming.

And burning questions will be answered, such as: Will one of the Mormon Housewives take home Dancing With the Stars’ Mirrorball trophy? Is there room in your life for another Law & Order? Who’s your powerhouse actress of choice — Robin Wright, Claire Danes, Jen & Reese, Felicity Huffman or Jessica Chastain? Even under a ton of prosthetics, could Chad Powers’ Glen Powell ever be not attractive? Will we love Nobody Wants This just as much in its sophomore season? How will Kim Kardashian fare as the star of her own Ryan Murphy show?

Read on for Us Weekly’s 2025 Fall TV Preview and the scoop on 37 shows of all kinds: new and returning, scripted and reality. And get comfy! Let the scenery-chewing commence! It’s Robin Wright vs. Olivia Cooke (House of the Dragon) in this U.K.-set tale of a tiger mom with a bad feeling about her son’s new love. (out now)
