As fall finales continue to shake up Broadcast this week, the TV slate remains full, thanks in part to new offerings from Streaming and Cable providers.
This week, as we bid a temporary adieu to the Law & Order franchise (Law & Order, Law & Order: SVU, and Law & Order: Organized Crime), Prime Video’s The Mighty Nein, a new adult animated fantasy series, premieres with the first three of eight episodes. Catch our spoiler-free advance review for more details.
On Netflix, A Man on the Inside returns for a second season, with Charles (Ted Danson) going undercover as a professor. Pluribus continues with episode 4 on Apple TV this Friday, and an episode in which Carol tests the boundaries of her new world. And on HBO, IT: Welcome to Derry continues to bring the scares in episode 5.
On the Broadcast front, staples such as Tracker, FBI, Law & Order, Brilliant Minds and Doc continue to inch their way towards their respective fall finales with new episodes this week.
