There’s been no shortage of big TV premieres this season. The Game of Thrones prequel House of the Dragon has already broken HBO ratings records. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (which has not yet debuted on Prime Video as I write this) is the most expensive TV show ever and will surely sweep up its own impressive haul of LOTR fans. But our Returning Favorites issue focuses on shows you already love and look forward to each fall when new episodes come back. Speaking of returning favorites, we put together expanded editions of our two bestselling special collector’s issues, Supernatural and Yellowstone. We’ve added exciting new features, exclusive photos and revealing interviews. For Supernatural, there’s now an in-depth look at The Winchesters, more SPN on-set memories…

@TVGMMattRoush What happened to Magnum P.I.? I thought the show was moving to NBC this season, but I didn’t see it in the schedule published in the Fall Preview issue. —Mary MATT ROUSH: Magnum won’t start airing until some-time in the midseason. It was a late pickup by NBC, which rescued the show from cancellation by CBS after the fall lineup was set. No word yet on what night of the week or when it will return, but the renewal was only for 10 episodes for this and next season. I’ve been searching for CNN’s Stanley Tucci: Searching for Italy. It came back, then it was gone. What happened? I loved that series. —Gwenn MATT ROUSH: You’re not alone. The sumptuous Emmywinning series for food and travel lovers will be…

FBI Sept. 20, 8/7c, CBS “The theme is balance,” showrunner and exec producer Rick Eid says of the franchise flagship’s fifth season. “We’ll see characters struggling to balance their all-consuming work lives with their personal lives. Regardless of how hard they try, it’s a tough needle to thread.” Case in point: In the opener, Assistant Special Agent in Charge Jubal Valentine (Jeremy Sisto) would very much like to keep his promise to attend his cancer-stricken son’s birthday party, but he would also love to help secure a massive bomb that’s in the wrong hands. Here, Eid provides more intel on what’s ahead. THREE THINGS TO KNOW 1 Maggie is coming back! Special Agent Maggie Bell (Missy Peregrym) has been recovering from near-fatal sarin gas exposure since an episode last April (while…

SCOOP FROM THE LEADING LADIES OF “ONE CHICAGO”! CHICAGO MED Sept. 21, 8/7c, NBC WHERE WE LEFT OFF This may be Chicago Med, but the Season 7 cliffhanger was all about fire. Flames moved through Dr. Will Halstead’s (Nick Gehlfuss) apartment building, potentially trapping him and fellow doc Dylan Scott (Guy Lockard). Meanwhile, Maggie dealt with the embers of an old love when daughter Vanessa Taylor’s (Asjha Cooper) birth father, Grant Young (Wayne T. Carr), reappeared. WHERE WE PICK UP It’ll be all hands on deck as Dr. Crockett Marcel (Dominic Rains), Lt. Commander Dr. Ethan Choi (Brian Tee) and mentor Dr. Dean Archer (Steven Weber) work to treat the fire’s survivors, and as Season 8 begins, Maggie’s concern focuses on Will. “He’s one of my best friends, he’s my…

Virgo (Aug. 23–Sept. 22) How your week pans out depends a lot on who you love and have in your life. Who do you keep close? Are they worthy of your trust? If so, this could be when people leave you feeling uplifted. LIBRA (Sept. 23–Oct. 22) Don’t be afraid to change your mind about anything or anyone. You’re in a cycle where you’re going to have more choices when it comes to relationships. That means you should seek out people who make you happy. Birthday: Kelly Ripa 10/2/1970 SCORPIO (Oct. 23–Nov. 21) You could find that an old fear resurfaces. Maybe it’s a fear of the unknown or maybe it’s something else, but here’s the thing: Whatever it is, chances are it’s overblown. Try to breathe through it, literally.…

@TVGMMattRoush The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Fridays, Prime Video THE MONEY’S ON the screen—and it’s a good thing, given the reported $460-plusmillion investment to bring J.R.R. Tolkien’s mythic Middleearth back to life for a sumptuous prequel to the events immortalized in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. At its frequent best in the opening hours (only two were made available for review), The Rings of Power is a reminder of what drew many of us to epic fantasy in the first place: wonder. Whether scaling terrifying icy heights in the Northernmost Wastes, weathering a savage storm on the Sundering Seas or merely gaping at the massive underground dwarf kingdom of Khazad-dûm with its multiple cascading waterfalls, this new series set in an ancient realm…

WELCOME TO FLATCH Sept. 29, 9/8c, Fox The population of fictional Flatch, Ohio, grows when the mockumentary picks up seven months later for Season 2. In the opener, real estate agent Barb Flatch (Mom’s Jaime Pressly)—a descendant of the town founder—moves back after ditching her hubby and Pompano Beach, Florida. As a Flatch “celebrity,” she expects a furor. “No one really cares, which is a little upsetting,” showrunner Jenny Bicks says. “But she decides to stay and hang a shingle.” And hire dreamer Kelly (Holmes). Bicks calls the mismatched pair “two ladies out to prove their worth.” Meanwhile, artist Shrub (Sam Straley) is enjoying a gap year and again pursuing ex Beth (Erin Bowles). And after that long-awaited finale kiss, reporter Cheryl (Aya Cash) and Father Joe (Seann William Scott)…

@damianholbrook Cheers to Little Demon for the wicked laughs. With Danny DeVito voicing Satan and Aubrey Plaza as the over-it mom raising his teen spawn (DeVito’s real-life daughter Lucy), FXX has found a sinfully delicious animated series. Cheers to Sara Tomko for grounding Resident Alien. While Alan Tudyk’s E.T. is a supernova of silliness on the sci-fi dramedy, it’s Tomko’s (left) emotional power that shines brightest as her nurse Asta Twelvetrees deals with killing a man to save her really out-there pal on the Syfy series’ second season. Cheers to Everything’s Trash. Freeform’s take on star Phoebe Robinson’s book of essays delivers an ensemble comedy about Brooklyn pals navigating real issues. It’s as sharply observed as it is unexpectedly offbeat. Cheers to Paul Rudd for checking into Only Murders in the Building. Teased…
