All the Shows We Know Are Coming Amid Writers & Actors Strikes
The Writers Guild of America and SAG-AFTRA strikes leave the future of TV up in the air. Although the list of shows delayed by the strikes is indeed growing by the day, there is still scripted TV on the horizon.
Outlander, for example, aired its seventh season over the summer on Starz, with Jamie and Claire Fraser’s time-traveling love story continuing with Season 7 Part 2 in 2024, which has already been filmed.
Justified: City Primeval, Miracle Workers, Foundation, The Summer I Turned Pretty, Good Omens, Heartstopper, and more also returned, and there’s a slew of shows still to come in 2023. Basically, any show that completed filming before the strike began can come out the rest of this year or in 2024. Streamers mostly complete filming before the show premieres, so a lot of the new TV will be from those platforms for the time being.
Come this fall, viewers will see the most stark absence on network TV, which still film episodes while the earlier parts of the seasons air. Still, there are network TV shows to look forward to this fall. Check out that list here. Additionally, the strikes mean that the actors in SAG can’t do any promotion for their shows, which will be a notable absence as these series start premiering in the coming weeks.
Here’s a handy list of upcoming TV premieres, including series debuts and returns, to remind yourself of what to look forward to in the coming months. (Keep checking back, as we’ll be updating it.)
