LEGO Masters Fox

Oscar season is officially upon us. Which sci-fi movies will win, and which snubs will we be whining about next week? Tune in Sunday to find out. And if you're not into the awards horse race, there's still plenty of other cool genre stuff to check out.

We have a couple of big series premieres this week: LEGO Masters with host Will Arnett on Fox, and the Riverdale spinoff Katy Keene on The CW. We also have a couple of season and midseason premieres, as CBS's MacGyver hacks a new season together with bubble gum and thumbtacks and The CW's The Flash returns after its post-Crisis break. There's also a new episode of Manifest, a new Legends of Tomorrow, a new Project Blue Book, a new installment of HBO's The Outsider, and a new Doctor Who. Plus a whole lot more.

Check out the full rundown below and let us know what you'll be watching.
