The first half of the two-part season four premiere finds Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore) treating a patient with an illness unlike anything he or the team at San Jose St. Bonaventure has ever seen. As safety protocols and quarantines increase due to the global pandemic, Lea Dilallo (Paige Spara) and Shaun’s new relationship becomes tested. As Dr. Alex Park (Will Yun Lee) prepares to move back to Arizona to be closer to his family, Dr. Morgan Reznick (Fiona Gubelmann) navigates her way around the clinic following her departure from the surgery team… and unknowingly puts herself and several members of the staff in danger. Meanwhile, Dr. Claire Browne (Antonia Thomas) continues to work through her grief, still reeling from the death of Dr. Neil Melendez (Nicholas Gonzalez).
Primal Survivor—Tuesday, November 3, at 9 p.m. ET on National Geographic
In the season premiere, host Hazen Audel battles his way through dense Guyana jungle and fights raging waters filled with hungry predators—including Piranha and huge Cayman—to track down a party of Makushi tribesmen. Throughout the season, using his knowledge and skills, Audel will embark on more exciting journeys via roads less traveled, where the terrain is typically unstable and the elements are often harsh and unpredictable.
Weird But True!—Friday, November 6, on Disney+
In the season three finale, “Camping,” Charlie Engelman and Carly Ciarrocchi set out to become master campers. Since neither of them has ever camped before, they take a trip to Coronado National Forest within Arizona’s Saguaro National Park.
