Must-Watch: New TV Shows to Add to Your Binge List

Posted on by

We live in a golden age of television and there are so many series to choose from. But sometimes, too many choices can lead to choice paralysis. Have you ever sat down in front of the TV, started scrolling through various streaming platforms for something that peaks your interest and then the next thing you know fifteen minutes have elapsed and you still haven’t chosen anything. To help you with decision fatigue, I’m going to recommend to you a few of my favourite new shows that were released this fall.

1. English Teacher

My first recommendation is called “English Teacher”. In Canada, you can stream the series on Disney Plus. English Teacher is a sitcom created by Brian Jordan Alvarez, who stars as the main character Evan Marquez. The cast also includes Stephanie Koenig, Enrico Colantoni and Sean Patton. The show premiered on September 2, 2024 on FX.

2. Shrinking (Season 2)

Watching Season 1 of Shrinking was like a breath of fresh air. The characters are overwhelmingly relatable and feel so grounded. The premise of the show centers on Jimmy laird, a therapist struggling with the loss of his wife. He abandons traditional therapeutic norms, bluntly telling his clients what he truly thinks. The unconventional methods leads to both breakthroughs and chaos in his professional and personal life. After the passing of his wife, he dropped the ball in rasiing his teenage daughter Alice and starts to pick up those pieces.

In Season 2, Jimmy’s road to healing takes a positive approach, but not without a few hiccups along the way. The show beautifully balances humour, emotional depth while exploring themes of loss healing and human connection. I highly recommend watching this series if you haven’t given it a try yet.

3. Dancing With the Stars (Season 33)

Alright, so I once though that this show was exclusively followed by older folks, but boy was I wrong. In terms of reality competition shows, I have never watched anything so compelling. It is so easy to get swept into the personal narratives of the contestants. The entertainment value is through the roof! Each week you can expect amazing costumes, fun performances, personal growth from contestants and much more. If you’ve never watched a season of Dancing With the Stars, I would highly recommend watching just one episode to give it a shot. I promise it’s not just for old folks.

Here’s a little taste of what you can expect when you tune in:

I hope these recommendations help get you through our cold and rainy weather this fall season!
