FX has announced the upcoming premiere dates for its summer slate of shows, including a couple of thrilling new seasons of two fan-favorite series.
The network unveiled the release schedule for the eight new and returning series that are set to comprise its summer slate. These begin on June 16 with the new drama series The Old Man, which premieres at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX. The Bear, a new comedy series, follows with its own premiere on June 23 exclusively on Hulu. July 12 marks the return of What We Do in the Shadows, with the show's fourth season premiering at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX, followed by the Hulu exclusive premiere of Part 2 of American Horror Stories on July 21.
Season 2 of Reservation Dogs begins Aug. 3 exclusively on Hulu, as well. FX's new docuseries, Welcome to Wrexhame, premieres Aug. 24 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FX. Little Demon, a new animated comedy, premieres. Aug 25 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on FXX. Finally, new limited series The Patient arrives exclusively on Hulu on Aug. 30.
What We Do in the Shadows, based on the 2014 film of the same name by Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, follows the lives of four out-of-touch vampires and their familiar servant-come-legacy vampire hunter. Taking place largely on Staten Island, the show has maintained its critical success and fan acclaim, without forgetting about or foregoing its firmly planted mockumentary roots. Fans of the series have been hotly anticipating its return ever since its third season ended with multiple loose ends in need of tying up. Apart from multiple key characters finding themselves an ocean away from the rest of the cast, the vampire Colin Robinson's grotesque rebirth during the Season 3 finale has led to plenty of speculation as to where the show is headed.
Created by Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk for FX on Hulu, American Horror Stories is the pair's latest anthology series, as well as a spinoff of their immensely popular American Horror Story. The first season of American Horror Stories originally premiered in July 2021 with an initial seven episodes. The series saw the return of American Horror Story alums such as Matt Bomer, Naomi Grossman, Charles Melton, Cody Fern, and Dylan McDermott.
