Sci-Fi This Week: Syfy Opens Monday Block, CW Shows Return
Find out what’s airing in science fiction and fantasy this week.
If you’re a fan of science fiction and fantasy TV, Mondays just got very busy!
This week Syfy Channel launches its new Monday night block for the winter season, adding three shows to our weekly genre schedule. Being Human returns for its fourth season; Lost Girl Season Four arrives in the U.S. (it’s already airing in Canada), and the new Canadian she-wolf series Bitten begins. Mondays are especially packed, with six genre shows airing (up until Sleepy Hollow bows out next week).
Meanwhile all of The CW genre shows that we track return this week after the holiday hiatus, with the exception of The Vampire Diaries (which returns next week). And there’s new episodes of our other current favorites, too!
Get ready for winter sci-fi.
