    About the List

    The Peak TV era is upon us and there are a lot of television shows available across the broadcast networks, cable channels, and streaming services with an estimated 500 scripted shows hitting the tube by the end of 2016. And quite a number of those fall into the science fiction and fantasy genre. With the Fall 2016 season now upon us, I have compiled all of the sci fi entries here which comprises almost 100 shows if you include the recently cancelled and ending ones from this past Summer. Around 90 of those are currently airing, returning, or upcoming through mid-season (I’m hedging on the actual number because some of these could get scrapped in production like NBC’s Emerald City which has been on and off for a couple of years). That’s up from the 86 we saw the last time I compiled this list over at SciFiTVSite.com. And there are so many shows here–some completely off the wall–that I might have slipped in a joke entry or two (email me at johnnyjaysays@gmail.com if you think you found them—no fair Googling—and maybe I’ll send you a free book from the list below). Plus, there are a ton of genre entries currently in development and I may have missed a returning or upcoming show because I have not heard official word or I just missed it (there are a lot of shows to keep up with).

    This list will help you keep track of what’s on, what’s returning, and what’s coming up through mid-season based on the information available so far. I give a brief description for each of the shows below plus comments on their current renewal / cancellation prospects. I’ve been dinged previously for my negative comments in the status section, but hey, I’m just telling it like it is. I’ve been tracking the standings of sci fi shows for years now and have a pretty darn good track record with my predictions. And with the current level of competition for scripted programming across all genres, it’s hard forany show to keep its head above water. You may not like the status I give to your favorite show or shows, but I’m not going to lie to you and tell you all of these will stick around for several years, especially in the current TV-overload environment.

    The cancelled/ending shows that dropped off from the last list are Agent Carter (ABC), Containment(CW), Damien (A&E), Galavant (ABC), Limitless (CBS), Minority Report (FOX), Person of Interest (CBS), and Second Chance (FOX). The recently cancelled shows from Summer / Spring that are included here are Powers (PSN), Houdini & Doyle (FOX), Hunters (Syfy), Penny Dreadful (Show), Deadbeat (Hulu). Those will roll off with the next list. I have a rundown of all the recently cancelled and ending shows further below.

    You can go to CancelledSciFi.com site to get more information on these shows as well as the season to date ratings and most recent status updates.  And you can keep track of what is on and what is coming up with the current schedule and weekly listings at SciFiTVSite.com. And be sure to follow @SciFiTVSite on Twitter for the latest sci fi TV news and daily reminders of what is airing.  So go through this list and start checking off what you want to watch and get the dates (where available)
