Here’s when your favorite show will return now that the writers strike is ending

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — The writers strike is now over. NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,” ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on CBS all said they’ll return on Monday. Shows that return while actors are still picketing could prove controversial, as happened with the planned resumptions of daytime shows including “The Drew Barrymore Show” and “The Talk.” Those plans were later abandoned. WHAT ABOUT ‘STRANGER THINGS’ AND ‘SUPERMAN?’ Writers rooms for scripted shows that shut down at the strike’s onset, including Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” “Severance” on Apple TV+ and “Abbott Elementary” on ABC, are also likely to reactivate quickly. Director Quentin Tarantino’s 10th film, “The Movie Critic,” is among the already written scripts whose makers are awaiting actors’ return to sets.
