TV THIS WEEK: New Fear the Walking Dead; Ripley's Believe it or Not premieres
It's still a slow, hot week as we start the slow march into summer. That said, there are still some cool genre shows to check out this week — from zombies, to the weird and wild with a dash of Bruce Campbell.
AMC is leading the charge this week with the most high profile new episodes, with both Fear the Walking Dead and NOS4A2 dropping new entries. As far as premieres go, the Travel Channel has the debut of its revived Ripley's Believe it or Not, hosted by none other than Bruce Campbell. The CW is also dropping the new season of Masters of Illusion, looking behind the scenes of the coolest escape artists and illusionists. The CW also has a new episode of iZombie, NBC has summer supernatural series The InBetween, and CBS's adventure series Blood and Treasure is also new.
Digging deeper, there are a ton of those reality-esque haunting and alien shows also stacking the schedule, if you're into that sort of thing.
