Rueben's Ramblings

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

On July 31, the second season of Twisted Metal will premiere online on Peacock; while on that same day, the special bonus episode of The Sandman will debut online on Netflix.

The new period piece drama Chief of War will debut, airing its first two episodes, on Apple TV+ on August 1. This epic series, executive produced and written by Jason Momoa, who is also the star, is set amidst the backdrop of the islands of Hawai’i, based on true events, following warrior Ka’iana (Momoa) as he tries to unify the islands before Western colonization in the late 18th century. The cast includes Temuera Morrison (who played Momoa’s father in the Aquaman movies) and Cliff Curtis [among others].

On August 1, the finale of The Chi will air online on Paramount+.

The new Netflix movie My Oxford Year will debut online on August 1. When Anna (Sofia Carson), an ambitious young American woman, sets out for the UK and the University of Oxford to fulfill a childhood dream, she’s got her life completely on track. That is, until she meets a charming and clever local named Jamie (Corey Mylchreest), who profoundly alters both of their lives.

On August 1, the new animated series Eyes of Wakanda will deubt online on Disney+. The new series follows the adventures of brave Wakandan warriors throughout history. In this globe-trotting adventure, the heroes must carry out dangerous missions to retrieve Vibranium artifacts from the enemies of Wakanda. Voices will be provided by Winnie Harlow, Cress Williams, Patricia Belcher, Larry Herron, Adam Gold, Lynn Whitfield, Jacques Colimon, Jona Xiao, Isaac Robinson-Smith, Gary Anthony Williams, Zeke Alton, Steve Toussaint and Anika Noni Rose.

The new Hallmark Channel movie 3-part franchise movie Providence Falls: Chance of a Lifetime will debut on August 2 at 8 PM. In 1844 Ireland, a rogue falls for a squire’s daughter, altering her destiny. Angels send them to present-day Providence Falls to correct it. He must make her fall for another man, though she’s now a cop with no memory of their past lives. The cast includes Katie Stevens (The Bold Type), Lachlan Quarmby (The Watchful Eye), Evan Roderick (Aurora Teagarden Mysteries), Paul McGillion (Stargate: Atlantis) and Matty Finochio (Sight Unseen and Riverdale).

On August 2, the Lifetime movie Terri Blackstock’s If I Run will debut at 8 PM. Adapted from the best-selling book, the movie follows Casey Cox (Kat Graham from The Vampire Diaries), a woman on the run after discovering her best friend Brent has been murdered – and she is being framed for it. Not knowing who to trust, Casey flees, using her intelligence and resourcefulness to stay hidden and the signs of divine guidance to help her in her journey. Meanwhile, Dylan Roberts (Evan Roderick from Aurora Teagarden Mysteries), a war-weary veteran and private investigator with PTSD, is hired to track her down. As Dylan digs deeper into the case, he begins to suspect that Casey might actually be innocent and that the real story is far more complex – and dangerous – than it first appeared. James Tupper (Big Little Lies and The Hardy Boys) also stars.

The linear debut of the Hallmark+ movie Aurora Teagarden: Death at the Diner will air on Hallmark Channel on August 3 at 9 PM. This movie debuted on Hallmark+ on October 10.

Lastly on August 3, the finale of The Chi will air on Showtime at 9 PM and, on that same day, the finale of Grantchester will air on PBS at 9 PM.

Mark your calendars!
