Fall TV Preview 2024: 'Yellowstone,' 'Outlander,' and so much more (2024)

F. Scott Fitzgerald once noted that “life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall,” and the same could be said for television. TV really is starting all over again.

With the fallout of last year’s WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes finally over, Fall 2024 TV is looking chock full of returning favorites, buzzy brand new shows, and more major stars than we’ve ever seen before. Mega hits like Yellowstone and Outlander are finally returning after long hiatuses. New genre shows like Dune: Prophecy and Star Wars: Skeleton Crew are determined to whisk us off to strange new sci-fi worlds. The DC vs. Marvel battle wages on, this time with HBO‘s The Penguin and Disney+‘s Agatha All Along premiering in the same exact week. And if you haven’t given the effervescently charming Aussie import, Colin From Accounts, a try, we’re begging you to get on that ASAP!

Fall TV encompasses hundreds of shows this year. There are so many amazing titles hitting cable and streaming this autumn that Team Decider struggled to narrow it down to the twenty four shows we’re most hyped for. Nevertheless, we did.

Below you’ll not only find a comprehensive guide to every show premiering on TV in Fall 2024, but you’ll also see Team Decider shining a spotlight on the twenty-four series we’re most excited about down in HQ. These shows are premiering in the three months and change that span the time after Labor Day Weekend and the official start of winter. They also represent a wide swatch of genres, storytelling styles, and tone.

Here is your guide to Fall TV…

1. September 4: Slow Horses Season 4 (Apple TV+)

   

   Apple TV+‘s critically-acclaimed espionage thrillerSlow Horsesreturns to bringSpook Street, the fourth book in Mick Herron’s beloved Slough House series, to screen. In Season 4, our favorite misfit MI5 agents Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman), River Cartwright (Jack Lowden), Louisa Guy (Rosalind Eleazar), Catherine Standish (Saskia Reeves), Roddy Ho (Christopher Chung), Shirley Dander (Aimee-Ffion Edwards), and Marcus Longridge (Kadiff Kirwan) race to investigate a mysterious bombing and uncover damning secrets along the way.

2. September 5: The Perfect Couple (Netflix)

   

   Nicole Kidman, rich people, and murder. Those are the ingredients for some of the juiciest dramas on television these days and Netflix’s The Perfect Couple has all three. Zoologist Amelia Sacks (Eve Hewson) is about to marry into a fabulously wealthy family, even if her future mother-in-law Greer (Nicole Kidman) hates her. The already tense wedding is horrifically ruined, however, when a dead body is found. Sounds like a terrible time for Amelia, Greer, and company, and a deliciously fun miniseries for us. — Meghan O’Keefe

In Season 2, “Dan Chase” (Jeff Bridges) and FBI bigwig Harold Harper (John Lithgow) find themselves back in Afghanistan. This time, they’re not on a mission for the U.S. Government, but trying to save kidnapped Emily (Alia Shawkat): Dan’s daughter and Harold’s protege.

   Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story was an electrifying look at both the circ*mstances that made a serial killer and the horrific fallout of his crimes. Will the follow up be as engaging?
