New Series!
TV’s most iconic vampire slayer and a new whirl on werewolves? Howl, yes! But though this scarefest is from Teen Wolf creator Jeff Davis, it’s not a spinoff. The series is headlined by genre queen Sarah Michelle Gellar (Buffy the Vampire Slayer) as Los Angeles Fire Department investigator Kristin Ramsey, who is hot to catch an arsonist behind a rash of local wildfires. In the pilot, after flames trap a school bus in the woods with teens Blake (Bella Shepard), Everett (Armani Jackson) and their classmates aboard, the kids are attacked by a fast, furry and ferocious something hiding amid the burning trees. With this, Ramsey’s case takes a new twist that leads her to the firestarter — but not before riding a collision course with ranger Garrett Briggs (Rodrigo Santoro, Westworld) and encountering a shocking secret.

The various guest stars featured in the stand-alone stories include Adrien Brody, Benjamin Bratt, Chloë Sevigny, Clea DuVall, Ellen Barkin, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Judith Light, Lil Rel Howery, Luis Guzmán, Nick Nolte, Rhea Perlman, Tim Meadows and many others.
