Does any native watch TV SHOWS

May I ask, do you watch tv shows by any chance?

If so, you know that on most tv shows, the first 20-30 seconds are dedicated to telling you what has happened so far on the show. The narrator say "Previously on the show" and they show bits and pieces of past scenes. If you haven't seen a character in a while, and that same character shows up in one of the scenes in the "Previously on the show" part, you know you are going to see him at some point in the episode you are about to watch.

Now does this make sense?

In the "previously" part of the episode, you'll see what you're going to see throughout the whole episode " so if you see a character in the previously bit , know that you'll see him at some point during the episode.
How would you write the above naturally?

Thank you

I'd write it a bit differently: If a long-absent character is shown in the recap, that character will make an appearance at some point in the episode. Recap: summary of previous events.
