Television’s most reliable show returns this week. On Wednesday, Apple TV’s “Slow Horses” kicks off its sixth season in four years. Based once again on novels by “Slough House” author Mick Herron, the new season catches viewers back up with the show’s crew of rejected English spies as they fight against threats both mysterious and not.
The first season produced without longtime showrunner and creator Will Smith, “Slow Horses” Season 6 is shaping up to be the ultimate test of the show’s increasingly impressive level of consistency (both in terms of its quality and annual output).

Things only get more complicated from there when River’s estranged mercenary father Frank Harkness (Hugo Weaving) resurfaces in London with nefarious intentions.

As has already been confirmed, “Slow Horses” Season 6 will also see Rosalind Eleazar (“Missing You”) and Hugo Weaving (“The Matrix”) reprise their previous roles. Olivia Cooke (“House of the Dragon”), meanwhile, is also set to make her long-awaited return as Sid Baker.
