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.
Given the limits on fall TV because of the strikes, we thought we’d check in with some of the titles that don’t always get Tomatometer scores, but for the most part aren’t affected by the Hollywood strikes. In addition to reality shows, which is a separate category, the list includes docuseries, documentary films, and news shows (premiering new seasons). While FBI True may not be new, it is having its broadcast debut this fall on CBS, and so we included it among our survey options to allow a new audience to weigh in with their interest.
Read on to find out all of Rotten Tomatoes users’ most anticipated new docuseries, documentary films, and news shows.
