The Librarians in release order

About this order

What is on this list

The three films, every episode of The Librarians, and every episode of The Librarians: The Next Chapter so far.

That is all there is on screen. A fourth film was announced in 2009 and never made; the series took its place. Neither series has made web episodes, shorts or specials. The novels and the comics are not on this list. Christian Kane and Noah Wyle are both also in Leverage, from the same producers, but the two worlds have never met on screen.

Two episodes a night

The Librarians often went out in pairs. Its first, second and fourth seasons each opened with two episodes on one night, and four more nights carried two as well - seven in all, each at eight and then nine in the evening. Both episodes are on the same date here, in that order.

The Next Chapter's second season went out on Sundays and Mondays, two episodes a week on consecutive nights rather than one.

Where The Next Chapter was first shown

On TNT, in America, on 25 May 2025. That was worth checking, because the series was made for The CW, taken off its autumn 2024 schedule before it aired and picked up by TNT instead, and because it is filmed in Belgrade. No earlier showing in any country turned up for either season; the Balkan broadcast began in September 2025, after the first season had finished in America.

Flynn Carsen, and the cross-over marks

Flynn is the lead of the three films and is in twenty-three of The Librarians' forty-two episodes. He is not marked as a visitor from the films on any of them, because he is one of that series' own cast, and a mark on more than half the rows would say nothing.

What is marked is everybody else the films left behind. Judson and Charlene open the first episode, Judson is in the second as well, and both come back in the third season. Excalibur, the sword with a mind of its own, is in the opening story and turns up again later. Nicole Noone, Flynn's Guardian in Quest for the Spear, returns in the fourth season, played by a different actor.

On The Next Chapter the marks are for people from The Librarians: Jacob Stone in four episodes across both seasons, and Cassandra Cillian in one. And Going Medieval is marked for its villain, a young Lancelot, who is the same man as Dulaque in The Librarians though a different actor plays him. Nobody else from the earlier series has appeared.

One passing mention was left unmarked: a single account of And the Feast of the Vampir has Flynn Carsen named in it, and nothing else confirms it.

Two titles that differ elsewhere

The sixth episode of The Next Chapter's second season is And Descartes' Nightmare on Wikipedia and in some listings, and And Descartes' Dilemma on IMDb and the fan wiki. This list uses the first; which is right has not been settled.

And the Feast of the Vampir is spelled that way here. IMDb has Vampire.

What is still open

The Next Chapter was ordered for two seasons and both have aired. As of the end of August 2026 TNT had neither renewed nor cancelled it.

Where the links go

Every entry links to IMDb, to Wikipedia and to The Librarians Wiki. Neither series has Wikipedia articles for single episodes, so those links go to the episode's row in the list.
