Youku

Starts 10/16/2026ESTIMATED65% CONFIDENCE30 episodes

Estimated: Youku has not announced (定档) a date. Drama bloggers' autumn schedules list 嫁金钗 as tentatively premiering on Youku on 16 October 2026 (some say 13 or 20 October), Youku has called it a fourth-quarter release, and it put out a new trailer and poster in mid-September. Filming wrapped in early April 2026, so 16 October is about six and a half months later, a little quicker than director Yang Long's last drama The Glory (雁回时, about eight months from wrap to premiere) but inside the Q4 window. Re-date once Youku announces the date.^[1]

嫁金钗 (Jia Jin Chai, "Where the Mask Ends") is Youku's 30-episode period drama in which Tian Xiwei (田曦薇) plays two women with the same face, a night-soil girl and the false noble daughter whose arranged marriage she is forced to take over, opposite Yan An (闫桉). It adapts 笑佳人's Jinjiang novel and wrapped in early April 2026. Youku has not announced the air date, so the premiere shown here is an estimate based on the date bloggers are tipping.

The Silent Storm (谷雨) Premieres

Taicheng, Taishan, Jiangmen, Guangdong, China

Youku

Starts 10/19/2026ESTIMATED65% CONFIDENCE40 episodes

Estimated: no air date has been announced. A 12 September 2026 schedule round-up on Weibo^[4] lists 谷雨 among October titles on the platforms' slates whose slot is not final, and Youku's channels released two new trailers on 16 September, the usual run-up to a premiere. This places it in the second half of October, on 19 October 2026. It wrapped in April 2025, and Li Lu's In the Name of the People aired 10 months after wrapping, so this drama is already later than that. CCTV^[6]-1 slots often move, so the date could slip. Re-date when CCTV or Youku announce it.

谷雨 (Gu Yu, "The Silent Storm") is Li Lu's 40-episode crime drama about a 1990s tax-fraud and organised-crime investigation, starring Jing Boran (井柏然) as a tax inspector, Sun Yizhou (孙艺洲) as a former criminal policeman and Zhang Songwen (张颂文) as the head of a tax-fraud ring. It will stream exclusively on Youku and air in CCTV-1 prime time. No date has been announced, so the premiere shown here is an estimate.
