New season of US series faves now streaming

-

VIDEO streaming service Fox+ has made a solid lineup of same-day uploads of American television’s most popular series available to Philippine subscriber­s as the Fall season began this month.

Since October 7, the ninth season of “The Walking Dead” has started its riveting storyline introducin­g new villains called The Whisperers.

Wednesdays, meanwhile, have seen new episode uploads of “American Horror Story: Apocalypse” Season 8 with Kathy Bates, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters and Jessica Lange with the iconic Dame Joan Collins of “Dynasty” fame; as well as more laughs from the 10th season of “Modern Family” with the Dunphies.

“Fresh Off The Boat” is another returning fan-favorite on its fifth season, spotlighti­ng the only Asian-American cast on US TV starring amid a white neighborho­od-setting in Orlando, Florida.

Two hit medical dramas, “The Good Doctor” and “The Resident” each stream new episodes every Monday and Tuesday, respective­ly; while Angela Basset’s “9-1-1” goes into its second season, following the action-packed lives of Los Angeles first responders, streaming fresh every Monday.

Also back on its second season is superhero series “The Gifted,” based on Marvel Comics’s “X-Men universe,” revealing more about the 7/15 incident that led to the anti-mutant policy and sentiment. New episodes are uploaded Wednesdays.

Finally, there are three new series available for streaming as well beginning with “New Amsterdam,” a medical drama that follows Dr. Max Goodwin (Ryan Eggold from the “90210” reboot) as he upends the status quo of a lumbering giant of an institutio­n to inspire hope and passion in this understaff­ed, under-funded, and under-appreciate­d hospital.

“A Million Little Things” premiered and airs new episodes weekly to follow the friendship between four men in Boston who formed a bond when they got stuck in an elevator together. A decade later, they find themselves in different levels of success, yet all feeling stuck in life as before. One day one of the friends commits suicide, jarring everybody else’s lives in the aftermath.

Finally, “A Discovery of Witches” is a supernatur­al fantasy series based on a novel of the same name. Set in Oxford University in England, it follows the story of Diana Bishop ( Teresa Palmer of “Warm Bodies”), a historian and reluctant witch. New episodes every Saturday.

Available on mobile devices, computers, Apple TV and Android TVs, all new episodes as well as the previous seasons can be downloaded by subscribin­g to the app.
