Your guide to the most interesting new shows of October.
Fall is in the air. Pumpkin lattes. Apple cider donuts. Halloween decorations. Cute kids in even cuter costumes. Leaf-peeping.
AppleTV+ celebrates the season by streaming It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown for free on October 19 and October 20. Peacock brings the horror with its new series Teacup on October 10. (I’m going to be honest with you: I could barely make it through the trailer of that one). Fox’s The Simpsons spoof the movie Venom in their 35th annual Treehouse of Horror on October 27. Freeform has its 31 Nights of Halloween. NBC’s Found, network TV’s most entertaining and crazy show, returns for a second season on October 3. And, perhaps scariest of all, Travis Kelce hosts Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? premiering October 16 on PrimeVideo.
Scares aside, this month also continues the roll out of this Fall’s new shows. As always, we’ve scoured through all that’s coming your way this month, to pick the five new shows you can’t miss this October.
