TV Talk: Premiere schedule for returning shows
It’s a fall TV season unlike any other. With TV shows slowly gearing up for production, many returning series won’t air until late this fall or early 2021.
In most years TV shows resume production in July. This year, just a few started back in August, with others gearing up to film this month.
If you don’t see a favorite listed below — and if it wasn’t canceled in May — it just means there’s no set air date for it to return:
