TNT’s upcoming revival of “Tales From the Crypt“, which is being executively produced by M. Night Shyamalan, is tentatively scheduled to air, “…the fourth quarter [of] ’17“, says TNT president Kevin Reilly via Slashfilm.

Reilly told the Television Critics Association that the full plan is to have a large horror block that will feature the show, original shorts, and an anthology series. The original series featured one-hour episodes.
“I think it may even be longer than an hour. There’s going to be a half-hour anthology and then a one-hour original show with some shorts in between. So it’s part of a whole block. The original half-hour, sort of slightly comedic, kind of twisted [story] that Night himself is going to direct will be a part of it every week. Then we’re going to have rotating original one-hours. Then we’ve got shorts that’ll be part of it too.”
Back in April, Brad detailed the full plan that they have in the works, which includes two additional shows “Time of Death” and “Creatures”.
