With an endless array of fresh and seasoned shows that will have TV audiences glued to their screens, here are a few favorites!

*The second season of the horror action show, “From Dusk Till Dawn:The Series”, has been released as of Aug. 25. It is the television adaptation of Quentin Tarantino’s cult classic. Although sharing the same plot there are differences as the series gives the viewer more background information on the Gecko brothers and adds mesoamerican mythology to the mix creating rollercoaster of insanity. Like the movie the series centers on the two Gecko brothers, Richie and Seth, who seek to cross over the Mexican border in order to avoid getting captured by the authorities after a bank robbery turns sour. They face off various supernatural foes and leave a of path of destruction, blood, and death in their wake.

*A riveting Netflix original,”Narcos”, depicts the rise of the most infamous drug kingpin in history, Pablo Escobar, and the DEA agents who brought him, his cocaine empire, and the Medellin Cartel down. It is set in Colombia during the 1980’s when the cocaine industry skyrocketed exponentially throughout North and South America. It is a fast paced show that will keep you on your toes. The show changes between Spanish and English but do not worry there are subtitles. As a Netflix original all episodes of season one are out.

*The heavily awaited fifth season of the popular horror anthology series “American Horror Story” premieres Oct. 7 on FX. This season takes place in the mysterious Hotel Cortez and features an array of new characters, but familiar faces. The story will center on Hotel Cortez and it’s enigmatic occupants, but don’t worry it will still feature the right amount of horrific gore fans have come to love. With a talented cast and riveting plot, it’s safe to say this season will be quite memorable, so make sure to check in.

*Season four of “Arrow” kicks off Oct. 7 on CW. Reeling from his newly found happiness with the love of his life, Oliver Queen is called back to Star City to face a new enemy, Damien Darhk. With a season promised to pack magic and action, Team Arrow will be faced with many difficult challenges and new problems. As for our favorite hooded vigilante, it seems that he has finally morphed in the true hero he is and we will finally see Oliver Queen become the Green Arrow. Will he be able to protect the people he loves or will he succumb to the darkness and lose everything he has fought for? Tune in to the season premiere on October 7 to find out!

*Season 3 of “Brooklyn Nine Nine” is set to premiere on Sept. 27 on FOX. This season a new captain will rock the precinct and a budding romance between one Jake Peralta and Amy Santiago is set to take place this season. Old faces well reappear such as the loved Captain Holt along with newer, funnier story.
