The Varnell Hill Show (September 1)

The series stars Tommy Davidson as Varnell, a veteran talk show host desperately maneuvering to preserve his cultural dominance amidst shifting industry trends.

Clash of the Thundermans (September 3)

Colin From Accounts Season 3 (September 10)

Route 187 (September 16)

Team Moms: Baseball (September 24)
This docuseries delves into the hyper-competitive ecosystem of elite youth athletics, following families embedded in Scottsdale, Arizona’s Legendary Prep Academy. As the country’s premier baseball prep institution, the academy acts as a direct pipeline to Division 1 college rosters, NIL contracts, and professional MLB drafts.
