As the leaves change color, so does our playlist of must-watch series. If you’re anything like me, the cooler months make for the perfect backdrop to get lost in some compelling storylines. So, grab your favorite hot beverage, and let's dive into the best TV shows to watch in the fall.
A Magical Autumn: Enchanting Shows
Charmed
First on my list is the original Charmed. This show is practically synonymous with fall. It follows the lives of the Halliwell sisters who discover they are powerful witches destined to protect the world from evil. Filled with magic, sisterhood, and a touch of '90s nostalgia, Charmed is the perfect escape for those chilly autumn nights. Plus, who doesn’t love a good spell or two?
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina
If you’re looking for something a bit darker, then Chilling Adventures of Sabrina should be your go-to. This reboot of the classic Sabrina the Teenage Witch series takes a more sinister turn, blending horror, magic, and teenage drama into a bewitching mix. Trust me, the eerie vibes are perfect for fall.
Merlin
Another magical entry is Merlin. This show reimagines the Arthurian legends with Merlin as a young wizard navigating the trials and tribulations of Camelot. The medieval setting, combined with a dash of humor and adventure, makes it an ideal fall watch.
The Magicians
For those who love a modern take on magic, The Magicians offers a thrilling ride. Think of it as Harry Potter for adults, with a lot more sass and complex characters. The blend of fantasy and real-world issues makes this show both relatable and fantastical.
Heartwarming Tales: Romances and Friendships
Virgin River
If magic isn’t quite your thing, how about a heartwarming romance? Virgin River is a delightful series that follows nurse practitioner Melinda Monroe as she moves to a small town seeking a fresh start. The picturesque setting and charming characters make it a perfect fall binge.
Gilmore Girls
No fall TV list would be complete without Gilmore Girls. This beloved series, set in the quaint town of Stars Hollow, is like a warm hug. The fast-paced dialogue, the coffee-loving Gilmore girls, and the small-town charm create an irresistible autumn vibe.
Gossip Girl
Switching gears to something a bit more glamorous, Gossip Girl is the ultimate guilty pleasure. Follow the lives of privileged Upper East Siders as they navigate relationships, scandals, and, of course, the ever-watchful eyes of Gossip Girl. It's dramatic, addictive, and perfect for a fall binge.
Anne with an E
For a dose of nostalgia and heartwarming storytelling, Anne with an E is a must-watch. This adaptation of Anne of Green Gables brings the classic story to life with stunning visuals and a modern touch. Anne's adventures and misadventures are sure to warm your heart this fall.
Supernatural Thrills: Vampires, Ghosts, and Mysteries
The Vampire Diaries and The Originals
If you’re in the mood for some vampire drama, The Vampire Diaries and its spin-off The Originals are fantastic picks. The intertwining stories of love, betrayal, and supernatural intrigue are enough to keep you hooked for seasons. Plus, the autumnal settings in Mystic Falls and New Orleans add to the spooky vibe.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Speaking of vampires, you can’t go wrong with Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Buffy Summers is the iconic heroine who battles vampires, demons, and the forces of darkness while navigating high school and later, college. The show's blend of horror, humor, and heart makes it a timeless fall favorite.
Ghost Whisperer
For those who love a good ghost story, Ghost Whisperer is an excellent choice. Jennifer Love Hewitt stars as Melinda Gordon, a woman who can communicate with earthbound spirits. Each episode brings a new mystery, and the emotional resolutions are as comforting as they are compelling.
Quirky and Delightful: Unique Gems
Good Witch
Good Witch is a charming series about Cassie Nightingale, a woman who may or may not have magical powers, living in the quaint town of Middleton. The show’s lighthearted and whimsical nature makes it a perfect feel-good series for fall.
Pushing Daisies
If you’re in the mood for something truly unique, Pushing Daisies is a delightful, quirky choice. The story follows Ned, a pie-maker who can bring the dead back to life with a touch. The show's colorful visuals and whimsical storytelling are sure to captivate you.
Magic and Mystery: A Perfect Fall Combo
