‘Yellowstone,’ ‘Outlander,’ and More Exciting Shows

F. Scott Fitzgerald once noted, “life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall,” and the same sentiment could easily be applied to television. With the conclusion of last year’s WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, Fall 2024 TV is gearing up to be packed with returning favorites, exciting new shows, and more major stars than ever before.

Showstoppers like Yellowstone and Outlander make their return after long breaks, while new genre series like Dune: Prophecy and Star Wars: Skeleton Crew are set to transport viewers to uncharted sci-fi realms. The ongoing battle between DC and Marvel continues with HBO’s The Penguin and Disney+’s Agatha All Along premiering in the same week. And if you haven’t yet explored the charm of the Aussie import Colin From Accounts, now’s the time!
