Here is a list of the programming options to expect on TV this week:

The finale episode of both Defiance and Warehouse 13 will air on Syfy July 8 at 9 and 10 PM respectively.

On July 10, the new FX drama The Bridge will debut on FX at 10 PM. Loosely based on the Danish/Swedish series of the same name, the series follows two police detectives – one Mexican, one American – as they and their joint effort stop a serial killer menacing both nations along the Texas-Mexico border. The series stars Diane Kruger (National Treasure) and Demian Bichir (A Better Life).

Also on July 10, the new NBC drama Camp will debut at 10 PM. Rachel Griffiths (Brothers & Sisters) stars as a divorced camp director looking for a fresh start, exploring the campers and counselors at Little Otter Family Camp, where summer memories are made.

The latest original series from Netflix called Orange is the New Black will launch all 13 episodes online on July 11. The series follows engaged Brooklynite Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling from The Lucky One), whose decade-old relationship with drug-runner Alex (Laura Prepon from That 70’s Show) results in her arrest and year-long detention in a federal penitentiary. To pay her debt to society, Piper must trade her comfortable New York life with fiancé Larry (Jason Biggs from American Pie) for an orange prison jumpsuit and a baffling prison culture where she is forced to question everything she believes and form unexpected new alliances with a group of eccentric and outspoken inmates. The series will also star Kate Mulgrew, Natasha Lyonne, Pablo Schreiber and Taryn Manning.

On July 12, the final two episodes of the defunct CW series Cult will air back-to-back from 8 PM to 10 PM.

The finale season of the UK original Being Human will premiere on BBC America on July 13 at 10 PM.

Also on July 13, the final episode of 666 Park Avenue will air on ABC at 9 PM.

The HBO drama The Newsroom will return with its season premiere on July 14 at 10 PM.

Also on July 14, the PBS Masterpiece Mystery made-for-TV mini-series Endeavour will air another episode at 9 PM. In this episode called “Fugue”, Morse and Thursday are confronted with a new breed of murderer, as a string of Oxford homicides continues with no end in sight. The entire police department is working round the clock and a special expert comes on to assist, but Morse’s love of opera may be the key to stopping the killing.

Mark your calendars!
