10 Best Sci-Fi TV Shows Returning This Year

10. The Twilight Zone

The original Twilight Zone is one of the biggest cult classics in television history, so when fans heard that it was getting a revival, they were over the moon. And the reimagining debuted on CBS All Access in April of last year to mostly positive reviews.

Employing a similar format to that of its predecessor, the anthology series explores a multitude of strange and unnerving standalone tales, utilising a myriad of genres (and a lot of guest stars) in order to heighten the disturbing nature of each story.

What sets it apart from the original, of course, is that it has the awes and wonders of the modern world at its disposal, and it uses them to great effect. And on that note, Jordan Peele is unquestionably a worthy successor to the legendary Rod Serling.

The series was renewed for a second season less than 30 days after it premiered, and its set to arrive sometime this year.
