FALL 2021 TV SURVEY: 30 MOST ANTICIPATED RETURNING SHOWS
For Rotten Tomatoes’ annual Fall TV Survey, we asked our users what they’re most looking forward to in the coming TV season and to reflect on the best shows from seasons past. Over 1,000 of them got back to us with their picks for fall.
The first question in our Fall TV Survey asked which returning shows fans are most looking forward to. Readers were allowed more than one vote, which, we decided, would have been cruel.
Led by season 2 of The Witcher, the most anticipated returning shows of fall also include top titles The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel season 4 (expected, though not confirmed), Cobra Kai season 4, and two series that have already begun their run, American Horror Story: Double Feature and What We Do in the Shadows season 3.
Read on to find out all of Rotten Tomatoes users’ most anticipated returning series.
