Netflix’s Lincoln Lawyer, Family Guy Halloween, and more new TV this week

The Lincoln Lawyer season 3

Genre: Legal drama
Release date: Oct. 17
Showrunner/creator: Ted Humphrey
Cast: Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Becki Newton, Neve Campbell, and more

Based on the fifth book of the Lincoln Lawyer series, The Gods of Guilt, season 3 picks up with Mickey Haller (Manuel Garcia-Rulfo) taking on a case more personal than ever before: A former client of his has been murdered, and he believes someone is being framed for the crime.

Family Guy Halloween Special

Genre: Animated seasonal special (Seth MacFarlane version)
Release date: Oct. 14
Showrunner/creator: Seth MacFarlane
Cast: Seth MacFarlane, Alex Borstein, Glen Powell, and more

It’s not quite the seasonal tradition of The Simpsons’ “Treehouse of Horror” lineup, nor even the Halloween sagas of the Bob’s Burgers kids (and parents). But Family Guy is here with a new Halloween special — released well in advance of Halloween, so you don’t have to crowd your festivities — and it features a big guest star: the Hit Man himself, Glen Powell.
