With nearly 500 scripted shows now airing across broadcast, cable and streaming, it's easy to forget that a favorite comedy is returning, or that the new "prestige drama" you anticipated is about to debut. So consider this our reminder to set your DVR, order a Season Pass, pop a fresh Memorex into the VCR... however it is you roll.
This week, you'll find a whopping 28 premieres (including the long-awaited second half of Billions' fifth season, as well as a Days of Our Lives spinoff, a Doogie Howser reboot and the very last episodes of Lucifer), 13 finales (including Good Trouble, Rick and Morty and The Republic of Sarah) and a smattering of films and specials (including Lifetime's latest Harry and Meghan dramatization and myriad 9/11 retrospectives).
