SEE Season 2

This week brings some big season premieres with A-list stars and franchises, some snazzy midseason returns, and a whole lot more — let's dig in.

For fans of The Witcher still waiting on Season 2, Netflix has a great warm-up act with the new anime The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf. If you're looking for something crazy-high on the production value scale, Apple TV+ has the second season premiere of its ambitious genre series SEE, starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista. Oh, and want some hilarious super-spy action? Archer is back with a new season.

On the return side of things, the back half of Supergirl's final season flies in on The CW, while Paramount Plus' acclaimed horror series EVIL (which has already locked in a third season renewal) is back following a midseason break. Digging deeper, SYFY has a new SurrealEstate; AMC has a new The Walking Dead; Disney+ has a new episode of its animated MCU series Marvel's What If…?; and Fox has new installments of LEGO Masters and Fantasy Island.
