TV SHOWS

The Walking Dead: World Beyond – Friday, October 2

This spin-off of the main show picks up ten years after the initial zombie invasion, with humanity doing a lot better with dealing with the infestation, but there are still plenty of ways for things go very wrong, very quickly. We chatted with the cast and creator of the show, and you can check out those conversations right here.

The Boys: Season 2 Finale – Friday, October 9

Everyone has been watching this show this year, with the misbehaving superheroes getting closer to being caught out by the public for their misdeeds. If the ending to the first season is anything to go by, then the huge finale for Season 2 will be sure to leave us on one hell of a cliffhanger.

Truth Seekers – Friday, October 30

Nick Frost and Simon Pegg – stars of Shaun of the Dead, Hot Fuzz and The World’s End – reunite in this comedy-horror about a broadband installer with a sideline in capturing evidence of ghosts for his YouTube channel. Some very strong Ghostbusters vibes from this one, which is about as high as praise can get.
