Trying to keep up with FX’s The Shards release schedule? You’re not alone. The show’s rollout has felt a little unpredictable, with some weeks delivering two new episodes and others offering just one. So what time does The Shards arrive on Hulu, and is a new episode dropping tonight?
The Shards marks Ryan Murphy’s latest dive into murder mystery territory, adapting Bret Easton Ellis’ bestselling novel of the same name. The series centers on a fictional version of Bret, played by Igby Rigney, as he grows convinced that mysterious new student Robert Mallory, portrayed by Homer Gere, is actually the serial killer known as the Trawler — even if his classmates and the police aren’t ready to believe him.
The most recent double-episode release unpacked the chaos surrounding Really Rhonda’s (Ivy Wolk) return, along with all the tension and spectacle of Homecoming. Naturally, fans are already wondering where the story heads next.
