10 Best Sci-Fi Shows That Are Dropping New Seasons Soon
Are you tired of watching great but finished stories that don’t offer the thrill of speculating about future events and waiting for new seasons? We’ve got you.
10. Silo ( 2023–Now)
The world has been devastated by a massive catastrophe, now plagued with toxic air and dead nature. The remains of the human civilization live in a massive underground bunker, obeying its strict rules that protect them… Or do they? You’re in time to learn the truth about the silo’s nature as Silo Season 2 releases in 2024. You can watch Silo on Apple TV and Prime Video.
9. Severance ( 2022–Now)
The work/life balance is difficult to maintain, so a team of scientists developed a new way to combat overwork: separating work and personal memories. The people who volunteered for the experiment feel great at first, but soon, they come to a daunting realization which we’ll learn more about in Severance Season 2 later this year.
You can watch Severance on Apple TV and Prime Video.
8. For All Mankind (2019–Now)
In an alternate universe, the space race between the USA and the USSR continues after the Soviets beat the States to the Moon. With even grander and more expensive goals, two superstates are fighting for control over the Solar System — and you can find out who wins the race in Season 5 which premiers in early 2025.
You can watch For All Mankind on Apple TV.
7. Resident Alien ( 2021–Now)
We lowkey expect aliens to have the most insidious plans for Earth, don’t we? Well, that’s the case in Resident Alien: an alien spy is sent to our planet with a secret mission, but as he assumes a local doctor’s identity and interacts with people more, he struggles with doubt about his orders. Season 4 is expected to premiere in 2025.
You can watch Resident Alien on Netflix, Apple TV, and Prime Video.
6. Love, Death & Robots (2019–Now)
Everyone’s favorite and most random collection of animated stories, Love, Death & Robots doesn’t consist solely of sci-fi episodes as it mix-and-matches various genres — but we’re positive that Season 4 will have some peculiar sci-fi tales to share just like the previous installments. The next season is expected to premiere later in 2024.
You can watch Love, Death & Robots on Netflix and Apple TV.
5. The Mandalorian ( 2019–Now)
Apart from The Acolyte, The Mandalorian is the only Star Wars project from Disney that genuinely has fans excited. Following Pedro Pascal ’s dedicated warrior and his favorite and infinitely marketable little protege, The Mandalorian is sure to keep us watching in Season 4 which should be released later this year if not for more delays.
You can watch The Mandalorian on Apple TV and Disney Plus.
4. Rick and Morty ( 2013–Now)
The absolute pinnacle of edginess and popular science, Rick and Morty quickly became one of the most popular animated adult series. This TV show follows a terrible yet brilliant scientist grandpa who takes his insecure grandson on bizarre adventures through time and space. Season 8 should premiere later this year.
You can watch Rick and Morty on Max, Hulu, Netflix, Apple TV, and Prime Video.
3. Stranger Things ( 2016–Now)
Netflix’s biggest breadwinner, Stranger Things tells the story of a group of kids who deal with sinister and insidious forces of the supernatural and scientifically impossible in a small town, but you already know that. Everyone does. Either way, the wait for Stranger Things Season 5 finally ends in 2025 with the show’s finale’s premiere.
You can watch Stranger Things on Netflix and Apple TV.
2. The Orville (2017–Now?)
The perfect new Star Trek of our century, The Orville follows the familiar template: it sends a group of brave souls to explore the depths of space and their interpersonal relationships, expanding humanity’s and their own horizons for the better or worse. After The Orville Season 4 gets greenlit, it should premiere some time in 2025.
You can watch The Orville on Hulu, Disney Plus, and Prime Video.
1. Doctor Who ( 1963–Now!)
The oldest sci-fi show to still keep rolling, Doctor Who has seen countless iterations, with the latest season premiering earlier this year… And still ongoing, in fact. You don’t even have to wait a few months or a year to join the new Doctor on his adventures through time and space — just tune in to Disney Plus on June 7, 2024.
