TV Shows FAQ

Common questions about upcoming tv shows on Incoming — how scores work, where data comes from, and how to use the site.

1. What TV shows are releasing in 2026?

   Incoming tracks every confirmed upcoming TV series, limited series, and season premiere in 2026 and beyond. Browse the full list at /tv, filter by genre or country, or check the calendar at /calendar to see what's premiering each month.

2. Does Incoming track new seasons of existing shows?

   Yes. Each season is tracked as a separate entity on Incoming, so you can follow when a show's next season is expected and see its Hype Score build as the premiere date approaches.

3. How do I find K-dramas and international series?

   Use the country filter on the /tv page, or search directly for Korean, Japanese, Spanish, or other international titles. Incoming sources TV data from TMDb, which has comprehensive coverage of international series including K-dramas, C-dramas, anime, and European productions.

4. Does Incoming show episode release dates?

   For currently airing series, Incoming shows the next upcoming episode date on the show's entity page. Full episode-by-episode schedules are shown where TMDb has that data.

5. How does the TV Hype Score work?

   The Hype Score (0–100) for TV series is calculated from Wikipedia pageviews, YouTube trailer plays, and community activity on Incoming. A show with a score above 80 is generating significant pre-premiere attention. The score updates daily and is comparable across all TV series on the platform.

6. What streaming platforms does Incoming track?

   Incoming tracks where a series is available but does not have direct agreements with every streaming platform. Platform data comes from TMDb's watch provider data. Incoming links to the platform where the show is available when that data is confirmed.

7. What TV database does Incoming use?

   TV series data — titles, episode counts, cast, creators, premiere dates, and posters — comes from The Movie Database (TMDb).
